The district

Where does Sacramento City Unified’s money go, and what does it plan?

Sacramento City Unified spent $24,421 per student in the 2024–25 school year.

The typical California district spent $20,491. About 62 cents of every Sacramento City Unified dollar went to classroom instruction.

Spending by function

Day-to-day spending per student in average daily attendance, from the district’s annual financial report (SACS) to the California Department of Education. District-wide: it includes central administration and costs never assigned to one campus.

Share by function, 2024–25

  • Instruction62%
  • Instruction support13%
  • Student services12%
  • Administration5%
  • Buildings & maintenance8%

Shares of the same spending total, by the report’s spending categories, rounded so they add up to 100. Names are simplified from the report’s own categories.

What the district plans

$509.2 million

planned in its 2025–26 plan for 131 funded actions in 15 goals. That’s 64% of its $791.1 million general fund budget. These are planned amounts; the district reports what it spent in a later plan.

The plan in short

Source: the district’s yearly spending plan (Local Control and Accountability Plan, or LCAP, 258 pages), as posted to the California School Dashboard.

Where the money goes

Three actions take 63% of the money; their titles are below. The plan itself puts 88% of it toward staff.

Reading, math and catch-up help

24 of the plan’s 131 funded actions name reading, math, catch-up help or English learners in their titles.

Actions whose titles name reading, math, catch-up help or English learners
  • Reading $12.0 million
  • Math $10.2 million
  • Catch-up help $16.4 million
  • English learners $3.7 million

An action naming two of these appears under both.

Largest of these

  • SUMMER SCHOOL - Summer Programming$7.4 million
  • INSTRUCTIONAL ASSISTANT SUPERINTENDENTS - Grade Level Readiness Intervention$5.5 million
  • INSTRUCTIONAL ASSISTANT SUPERINTENDENTS - School Site Council-determined, SPSA-based actions to improve English Language Arts and Mathematics results$5.2 million
For high-need students (English learners, low-income students and foster youth), what changed and what its goals measure
For high-need students

It plans $319.7 million in extra services for English learners, low-income students and foster youth. For 2024–25, it planned $319.7 million and estimates it spent $326.6 million, $6.9 million (2%) more than planned (our arithmetic).

What changed

The total is $4.4 million (1%) higher than in the 2024–25 plan. We couldn’t match $294.9 million of this $509.2 million plan to individual actions in last year’s plan. These lists cover the rest.

What its goals measure

Read these state results for the district’s own schools as context for the goals they measure; results alone can’t show what the plan caused.

Goals 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15 track named schools and Goal 1 tracks other measures, so they aren’t shown here.

Figures from CDE’s state test, chronic absence and suspension files. Test figures cover every grade the district tests (California tests grades 3–8 and 11), so they differ from a profile’s rated grades. We combined the district’s schools ourselves, weighted by students and leaving out charter schools. Chronically absent means a student missed 10% or more of school days.
