Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the Calaveras Unified School District is eligible to receive apportionments for the Railroad Flat Elementary School pursuant to Section 42282.

SEC. 2.

 Section 42285.5 is added to the Education Code, to read:

42285.5.
 (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the Kings Canyon Unified School District is eligible to receive apportionments for the Dunlap High School pursuant to the schedule for necessary small high schools set forth in Section 42284.
(b) Notwithstanding subdivision (a), the Kings Canyon Unified School District shall not claim necessary small school funding pursuant to Section 42284 for more than three teachers.
(c) If the average daily attendance of the Dunlap High School exceeds 100, the school district shall no longer be entitled to receive apportionments as set forth in this section.
(d) This section shall become inoperative on July 1, 2018, and, as of January 1, 2019, is repealed, unless a later enacted statute, that becomes operative on or before January 1, 2019, deletes or extends the dates on which it becomes inoperative and is repealed.
SEC. 3.
 The Legislature finds and declares that a special law is necessary and that a general law cannot be made applicable within the meaning of Section 16 of Article IV of the California Constitution because of the unique circumstances of the Kings Canyon Unified School District and Calaveras Unified School District. The facts constituting the special circumstances that distinguish these districts from other unified school districts are their geographical locations and the distances pupils would otherwise be required to travel to attend school.
