LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


SB 971, Huff. School finance: categorical programs.
(1) Existing law establishes the public school system in this state, and, among other things, provides for the establishment of county superintendents of schools, school districts, and charter schools throughout the state and for the provision of instruction at the public elementary and secondary schools these local educational agencies maintain. Existing law establishes a public school financing system that requires state funding for county superintendents of schools, school districts, and charter schools to be calculated pursuant to a local control funding formula, as specified.
Existing law establishes various education programs under which funding is provided for specific educational purposes, which are commonly known as categorical programs, including, among many others, programs for community-based English tutoring, teacher training, and class size reduction. Existing law further authorizes local educational agencies to expend, for any local educational purpose, the funds previously required to be spent on specified categorical education programs.
This bill would repeal many provisions requiring, authorizing, or prescribing the elements of certain categorical education programs. The bill would make conforming changes, correct cross-references, and make other nonsubstantive changes.
(2) This bill would incorporate additional changes to Section 17199.4 of the Education Code proposed by AB 1979 that would become operative if this bill and AB 1979 are both enacted on or before January 1, 2015, and this bill is enacted last.

(1) If a participating party adopts a resolution by a majority vote of its board to participate under this section, it shall provide notice to the Controller of that election. The notice shall include a schedule for the repayment of principal and interest on the bonds, and any other costs necessary or incidental to financing pursuant to this chapter, and identify a trustee appointed by the participating party or the authority for purposes of this section.

The notice shall be provided not later than the date of issuance of the bonds or 60 days before the next payment, whichever date is later. The participating party shall update the notice at least annually if there is a change in the required payment for any reason, including, but not limited to, providing for new or increased costs necessary or incidental to the financing.
(2) If, for any reason, the participating party will not make a payment at the time the payment is required, the participating party shall notify the trustee of that fact and of the amount of the deficiency. If the trustee receives this notice from the participating party, or does not receive any payment by the date that payment becomes due, the trustee shall immediately communicate that information to the Controller.
(3) Upon receipt of the notice required by paragraph (2), the Controller shall make an apportionment to the trustee on the date shown in the schedule in the amount of the deficiency for the purpose of making the required payment. The Controller shall make that apportionment only from moneys designated for apportionment to a participating party, provided that such moneys are from one or both of the following:
(A) Any funding apportioned for purposes of revenue limits or the local control funding formula pursuant to Section 42238.02, as implemented by Section 42238.03, to a school district or county office of education without regard to the specific funding source of the apportionment.
(B) Any funding apportioned for purposes of the charter school block grant or the local control funding formula pursuant to Section 42238.02, as implemented by Section 42238.03, to a charter school without regard to the specific funding source of the apportionment.

The transfer schedule shall set forth amounts to be transferred to the trustee and the date for the transfers. The Controller, subject to the limitation in paragraph (3), shall make apportionments to the trustee of those amounts on the specified date for the purpose of making those transfers. The authority may require a participating party to proceed under this subdivision.
(b) (1) The amount apportioned for a participating party pursuant to this section shall be deemed to be an allocation to the participating party and shall be included in the computation of allocation, limit, entitlement, or apportionment for the participating party.
(2) The participating party and its creditors do not have a claim to funds apportioned or anticipated to be apportioned to the trustee by the Controller pursuant to paragraph (3) and (4) of subdivision (a), or to the funds apportioned to by the Controller to the trustee under any other provision of this section.
(c) (1)  Participating parties that elect to participate under this section shall apply to the authority. The authority shall consider each of the following priorities in making funds available:
(A) First priority shall be given to school districts, charter schools, or county offices of education that apply for funding for instructional classroom space.
(B) Second priority shall be given to school districts, charter schools, or county offices of education that apply for funding of modernization of instructional classroom space.
(C) Third priority shall be given to all other eligible costs, as defined in Section 17173.
(2) The authority shall prioritize applications at appropriate intervals.
(3) A school district electing to participate under this section that has applied for revenue bond moneys for purposes of joint venture school facilities construction projects, pursuant to Article 5 (commencing with Section 17060) of Chapter 12, shall not be subject to the priorities set forth in paragraph (1).
(d) This section shall not be construed to make the State of California liable for any payments within the meaning of Section 1 of Article XVI of the California Constitution or otherwise, except as expressly provided in this section.
(e) A school district that has a qualified or negative certification pursuant to Section 42131, or a county office of education that has a qualified or negative certification pursuant to Section 1240, may not participate under this section.

SEC. 9.5.

 Section 17199.4 of the Education Code is amended to read:

17199.4.
 (a) Notwithstanding any other law, any participating party, in connection with securing financing or refinancing of projects, or working capital pursuant to this chapter, may, in accordance with this section, elect to provide for funding, in whole or in part, one or more of the following:
(1) Payments on authority bonds.

(2) Provide written notice to the Controller, no later than the date of the issuance of the bonds or 60 days before the next payment, whichever is later, of all of the following:
(A) Its election to participate.
(B) A schedule of the payments subject to that election.
(C) The payee or payees of those payments, or the trustee or agent on their behalf to receive those payments.

The participating party shall certify in the notice and in any amendment, supplement, or restatement of the notice that each and every payment reflected in the schedule is a payment described in subdivision (a) and the amounts scheduled do not exceed the actual or reasonably estimated payment obligations to be funded pursuant to this section. The participating party shall also represent in the notice that it is not submitting the notice for the purpose of accelerating a participating party’s receipt of its apportionments. Nothing in this section prohibits transfer by the recipient of an apportionment under this section to the participating party submitting the notice of the excess apportionment above the amount needed to fund actual payments where the excess resulted from erroneous estimation of scheduled payments or otherwise.

(1) If the participating party requests transfers in full as scheduled, in the amount of the scheduled transfer or such lesser amount as is available from the sources indicated in subdivision (f).
(2) If the participating party does not request transfers in full as scheduled, in the amount of the anticipated deficiency for the purpose of making the required payment indicated in a written request of the participating party to the Controller and in the amount of the actual shortfall in payment indicated in a written request of the recipient or the participating party to the Controller or the lesser amount that is available from the sources indicated in subdivision (f).
(3) To the extent funds available for an apportionment are insufficient to pay the amount set forth in a schedule in any period, the Controller shall, if and as requested in the notice, reschedule the payment of all or a portion of the deficiency to a subsequent period.
(4) In making apportionments under this section, the Controller may rely conclusively and without liability on any notice or request delivered under this section, including any delivered prior to enactment of the act that adds this paragraph. The Controller may make, but is not obligated to make, apportionments not reflected on a notice or on an amended, supplemented, or restated notice delivered under this section that the Controller receives less than 20 days prior to when the apportionment would otherwise be required.
(f) The Controller shall make an apportionment under this section only from moneys designated for apportionment to the participating party delivering the notice, and only from one or both of the following:
(1) Any funding apportioned for purposes of revenue limits or the local control funding formula pursuant to Section 42238.02, as implemented by Section 42238.03, to a school district or county office of education without regard to the specific funding source of the apportionment.
(2) Any funding apportioned for purposes of the charter school block grant or the local control funding formula pursuant to Section 42238.02, as implemented by Section 42238.03, to a charter school without regard to the specific funding source of the apportionment.
(g) (1) The amount apportioned for a participating party pursuant to this section shall be deemed to be an allocation to the participating party, and shall be included in the computation of allocation, limit, entitlement, or apportionment for the participating party.
(2) The participating party and its creditors do not have a claim to funds apportioned or anticipated to be apportioned by the Controller pursuant to this section.
(h) (1) The authority may require participation under this section under the terms of any financing or refinancing under this chapter to provide for one or more of the payments described in paragraphs (1), (2), (3), and (4) of subdivision (a). The authority may impose limits on new participation under this section. The authority may require participating parties to apply to the authority for participation. If the authority limits participation under this section, the authority shall consider each of the following priorities in making participation available:
(A) First priority shall be given to participating parties that apply for funding for instructional classroom space under this chapter.
(B) Second priority shall be given to participating parties that apply for funding of modernization of instructional classroom space under this chapter.
(C) Third priority shall be given to participating parties that apply for funding under this chapter for any other eligible costs, as defined in Section 17173.
(2) The authority shall prioritize applications at appropriate intervals.
(3) A school district electing to participate under this section that has applied for revenue bond moneys for purposes of joint venture school facilities construction projects, pursuant to Article 5 (commencing with Section 17060) of Chapter 12, shall not be subject to the priorities set forth in paragraph (1).
(i) This section shall not be construed to make the State of California liable for any payments within the meaning of Section 1 of Article XVI of the California Constitution.
(j) A school district that has a qualified or negative certification pursuant to Section 42131, or a county office of education that has a qualified or negative certification pursuant to Section 1240, may not participate under this section.
(k) This section does not obligate the State of California to make available the sources of apportionment under subdivision (f) in any amount or at any time or, except as provided in this section, to fund any payment described in this section. The addition of this subdivision is intended solely to clarify existing law.

The county superintendent of schools is authorized to establish appropriate funds or accounts in the county treasury for each charter school.
(2) In the case of a charter school that does not elect to receive its funding directly pursuant to this section, the warrant shall be drawn in favor of the county superintendent of schools of the county in which the local educational agency that granted the charter is located or was designated the oversight agency by the state board pursuant to paragraph (1) of subdivision (k) of Section 47605, for deposit to the appropriate funds or accounts of the local educational agency.
(3) In the case of a charter school, the charter of which was granted by the state board, but for which the state board has not delegated oversight responsibilities pursuant to paragraph (1) of subdivision (k) of Section 47605, the warrant shall be drawn in favor of the county superintendent of schools in the county where the local educational agency is located that initially denied the charter that was later granted by the state board.

(b) On or before June 1 of each year, a charter school electing to receive its funding directly shall so notify the county superintendent of schools of the county in which the local educational agency that granted the charter is located or, in the case of charters for which the state board has designated an oversight agency pursuant to paragraph (1) of subdivision (k) of Section 47605, the county superintendent of schools of the county in which the designated oversight agency is located. An election to receive funding directly shall apply to all funding that the charter school is eligible to receive including, but not limited to, the local control funding formula allocation pursuant to Section 42238.02, as implemented by Section 42238.03, other state and federal categorical aid, and lottery funds.

 Section 48660 of the Education Code is amended to read:

48660.
 (a) The governing board of a school district may establish one or more community day schools for pupils who meet one or more of the conditions described in subdivision (b) of Section 48662. A community day school may serve pupils in any of kindergarten and grades 1 to 6, inclusive, or any of grades 7 to 12, inclusive, or the same or lesser included range of grades as may be found in an individual middle or junior high school operated by the school district. If a school district is organized as a school district that serves kindergarten and grades 1 to 8, inclusive, but no higher grades, the governing board of the school district may establish a community day school for any kindergarten and grades 1 to 8, inclusive, upon a two-thirds vote of the governing board of the school district. It is the intent of the Legislature, that to the extent possible, the governing board of a school district operating a community day school for any of kindergarten and grades 1 to 8, inclusive, separate younger pupils from older pupils within that community day school.
(b) The average daily attendance of a community day school shall be determined by dividing the total number of days of attendance in all full school months, by a divisor of 70 in the first period of each fiscal year, by a divisor of 135 in the second period of each fiscal year, and by a divisor of 180 at the annual time of each fiscal year.

 Section 60851 of the Education Code is amended to read:

60851.
 (a) Commencing with the 2003–04 school year and each school year thereafter, each pupil completing grade 12 shall successfully pass the high school exit examination as a condition of receiving a diploma of graduation or a condition of graduation from high school. Funding for the administration of the high school exit examination shall be provided for in the annual Budget Act. The Superintendent shall apportion funds appropriated for this purpose to enable school districts to meet the requirements of this subdivision and subdivisions (b), (c), and (d). The state board shall establish the amount of funding to be apportioned per test administered, based on a review of the cost per test.
(b) Each pupil shall take the high school exit examination in grade 10 beginning in the 2001–02 school year and may take the examination during each subsequent administration, until each section of the examination has been passed.
(c) (1)  At the parent or guardian’s request, a school principal shall submit a request for a waiver of the requirement to successfully pass the high school exit examination to the governing board of the school district for a pupil with a disability who has taken the high school exit examination with modifications that alter what the test measures and has received the equivalent of a passing score on one or both subject matter parts of the high school exit examination. A governing board of a school district may waive the requirement to successfully pass one or both subject matter parts of the high school exit examination for a pupil with a disability if the principal certifies to the governing board of the school district that the pupil has all of the following:
(A)  An individualized education program adopted pursuant to the federal Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (20 U.S.C. Sec. 1400 et seq.) or a plan adopted pursuant to Section 504 of the federal Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (29 U.S.C. Sec. 794(a)) in place that requires the accommodations or modifications to be provided to the pupil when taking the high school exit examination.
(B)  Sufficient high school level coursework either satisfactorily completed or in progress in a high school level curriculum sufficient to have attained the skills and knowledge otherwise needed to pass the high school exit examination.
(C)  An individual score report for the pupil showing that the pupil has received the equivalent of a passing score on the high school exit examination while using a modification that fundamentally alters what the high school exit examination measures as determined by the state board.
(2) A school district shall report to the state board, in a manner and by a date determined by the Superintendent, the number and characteristics of waivers reviewed, granted, and denied under this subdivision and any additional information determined to be in furtherance of this subdivision.
(d) The high school exit examination shall be offered in each public school and state special school that provides instruction in grades 10, 11, or 12, on the dates designated by the Superintendent. A high school exit examination may not be administered on any date other than those designated by the Superintendent as examination days or makeup days.
(e) The results of the high school exit examination shall be provided to each pupil taking the examination within eight weeks of the examination administration and in time for the pupil to take any section of the examination not passed at the next administration. A pupil shall take again only those parts of the high school exit examination he or she has not previously passed and may not retake any portion of the high school exit examination that he or she has previously passed.
(f) Supplemental instruction shall be provided to any pupil who does not demonstrate sufficient progress toward passing the high school exit examination. To the extent that school districts have aligned their curriculum with the state academic content standards adopted by the state board, the curriculum for supplemental instruction shall reflect those standards and shall be designed to assist the pupils to succeed on the high school exit examination. This chapter does not require the provision of supplemental services using resources that are not regularly available to a school or school district, including summer school instruction. In no event shall any action taken as a result of this subdivision cause or require reimbursement by the Commission on State Mandates. Sufficient progress shall be determined on the basis of either of the following:
(1) The results of the assessments administered pursuant to Article 4 (commencing with Section 60640) of Chapter 5 and the minimum levels of proficiency recommended by the state board pursuant to Section 60648.
(2) The grades of the pupil and other indicators of academic achievement designated by the school district.
