District overview
Susanville School District
Funding structure, how it compares to peers, and where major projects stand.
What can families see about funding and decisions?
Susanville is a small public district serving three schools. California districts generally receive most operating support through the state’s Local Control Funding Formula, which is driven in part by student attendance and provides extra support for students with greater needs. The district’s published agendas show its board considering budgets and plans, but do not include the adopted financial tables or minutes needed to confirm outcomes.
A five-member board governs the district
The Board of Trustees sets meeting agendas and considers districtwide budget, policy, staffing, and facilities items. Families can attend its regular meetings at the district office.
The current record has a financial-data gap
The collected agendas include budget hearings and proposed approvals, but no adopted budget document with revenue, spending, or per-student figures. That means this page cannot responsibly state current spending per student.
ELOP space is the clearest ongoing project
Several agendas refer to modular classroom space for McKinley’s Expanded Learning Opportunity Program. The records show planned steps, not a published approval or completion record.
A missing budget table or meeting minute in this public archive does not show that the district lacks the information; it means the information was not part of this collected record.
Where the district stands
NCES lists three schools for Susanville Elementary (the state directory name for Susanville School District) in 2024-25; this is context rather than a collected-board-document fact.
Twelve dated agendas and one budget/LCAP hearing notice from August 2025 through August 2026.
The official recurring archive supplied agendas only, so proposed agenda actions cannot be treated as completed decisions.
No collected adopted budget or spending report states this figure.
Major projects

This page uses the district’s official board-agenda archive and the NCES public district directory for limited context. Agenda entries describe matters scheduled for consideration; without published minutes, they do not establish the board’s final action.
