. (a) The schoolsite council shall develop a school plan which
shall include all of the following:
(1) Curricula, instructional strategies and materials responsive
to the individual needs and learning styles of each pupil.
(2) Instructional and auxiliary services to meet the special needs
of non-English-speaking or limited-English-speaking pupils,
including instruction in a language these pupils understand;
educationally disadvantaged pupils; gifted and talented pupils; and
pupils with exceptional needs.
(3) A staff development program for teachers, other school
personnel, paraprofessionals, and volunteers, including those
participating in special programs. Staff development programs may
include the use of program guidelines that have been developed by the
superintendent for specific learning disabilities, including
dyslexia, and other related disorders. The strategies included in the
guidelines and instructional materials that focus on successful
approaches for working with pupils who have been prenatally substance
exposed, as well as other at-risk pupils, may also be provided to
teachers.
(4) Ongoing evaluation of the educational program of the school.
(5) Other activities and objectives as established by the council.
(6) The proposed expenditures of funds available to the school
through the programs described in Section 52851. For purposes of this
subdivision, proposed expenditures of funds available to the school
through the programs described in Section 52851 shall include, but
not be limited to, salaries and staff benefits for persons providing
services for those programs.
(7) The proposed expenditure of funds available to the school
through the federal Improving America's Schools Act of 1994 (IASA)
(20 U.S.C. Sec. 6301 et seq.) and its amendments. If the school
operates a state-approved schoolwide program pursuant to Section 6314
of Title 20 of the United States Code in a manner consistent with
the expenditure of funds available to the school pursuant to Section
52851, employees of the schoolwide program may be deemed funded by a
