CALIFORNIA LEGISLATURE— 2009–2010 REGULAR SESSION

Senate Bill
No. 236

Introduced  by  Senator Huff

February 24, 2009

An act to amend Section 51221.5 of the Education Code, relating to curriculum.


LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


SB 236, as introduced, Huff. Curriculum.
Existing law requires that the adopted course of study for grades 7 to 12, inclusive, offer courses in career technical education. These provisions define “vocational-technical education” and “career technical education” as education designed and conducted for the purpose of preparing youth for gainful employment in the occupations and in the numbers that are appropriate to the personnel needs of the state and the community served and relevant to the career desires and needs of the pupils.
This bill would make a technical, nonsubstantive change to those provisions.
Vote: MAJORITY   Appropriation: NO   Fiscal Committee: NO   Local Program: NO  

The people of the State of California do enact as follows:


SECTION 1.

 Section 51221.5 of the Education Code is amended to read:

51221.5.
 For the purposes of this code, the phrase “vocational-technical education” shall have the same meaning as “career technical education” as described in subdivision (i) of Section 51220.
