As Amends the Law Today


SECTION 1.

 Section 52335.4 of the Education Code is amended to read:

52335.4.
 The Superintendent shall determine each ROC/P’s share of funded growth average daily attendance by computing the sum of subdivisions (a), (b), and (c):
(a) Subtract the ROC/P’s annual units of funded average daily attendance for the prior year from the ROC/P’s annual units of funded average daily attendance for the second prior year. If the amount computed pursuant to this subdivision is negative, it shall be deemed to be zero.
(b) Allocate 25 percent of the allowable growth average daily attendance funded in the Budget Act to low participation ROC/Ps, pursuant to criteria established by the Superintendent.
(c) (1) Subtract the statewide sum of the growth average daily attendance computed pursuant to subdivisions (a) and (b) from the allowable growth in average daily attendance funded in the Budget Act. If the amount computed is negative, it shall be deemed to be zero.
(2) (A) Calculate the ROC/P’s pro rata share of the funded growth average daily attendance calculated pursuant to paragraph (1), based on the prior year average daily attendance in grades 9 to 12, inclusive, for the school districts served by the ROC/P in relation to the total statewide prior year average daily attendance in grades 9 to 12, inclusive. For purposes of the calculation required by this paragraph, the Superintendent shall use the average daily attendance reported for the second principal apportionment of the prior year.
(B) In calculating the pro rata share of funded growth average daily attendance, the Superintendent shall ensure that each ROC/P is provided at least 10 units of allowed growth average daily attendance pursuant to subdivisions (b) and (c).
(d) (1) It is the intent of the Legislature that each ROC/P use its share of funded growth average daily attendance provided pursuant to this section to serve pupils in grades 9 to 12, inclusive, unless the governing board or governing boards of the school district or districts overseeing the ROC/P determine that the needs of pupils in grades 9 to 12, inclusive, have been met.
(2) It is the intent of the Legislature that, if a determination is made pursuant to paragraph (1) that the needs of pupils in grades 9 to 12, inclusive, have been met, then the governing board or governing boards of the school district or districts overseeing the ROC/P may authorize the ROC/P to use its share of funded growth average daily attendance provided pursuant to this section to serve adults.
(e) (1) Notwithstanding subdivisions (a) to (d), inclusive, and commencing in the 2009–10 fiscal year, if the growth average daily attendance funded in the annual Budget Act for any fiscal year is a negative adjustment, subdivisions (a) to (d), inclusive, shall not be operative for that fiscal year. That negative adjustment in the annual Budget Act shall be allocated by the Superintendent to each ROC/P as an equivalent percentage reduction to the cap on the average daily attendance of that ROC/P.
(2) For the purposes of implementing this subdivision in the 2009–10 fiscal year, the Superintendent shall recalculate the prior year average daily attendance for each regional occupational center or program pursuant to paragraph (1) of subdivision (a) of Section 52335.2 to apply a percentage reduction equal to the percentage reduction applied for ROC/P growth in the Budget Act of 2008.
(f) This section shall become inoperative on July 1, 2010, and, as of January 1, 2011, is repealed, unless a later enacted statute, that becomes operative on or before January 1, 2011, deletes or extends the dates on which it becomes inoperative and is repealed.

(2) (A) Calculate the ROC/P’s pro rata share of the funded growth average daily attendance calculated pursuant to paragraph (1), based on the prior year average daily attendance in grades 9 to 12, inclusive, for the school districts served by the ROC/P in relation to the total statewide prior year average daily attendance in grades 9 to 12, inclusive. For purposes of the calculation required by this paragraph, the Superintendent shall use the average daily attendance reported for the second principal apportionment of the prior year.
(B) In calculating the pro rata share of funded growth average daily attendance, the Superintendent shall ensure that each ROC/P is provided at least 10 units of allowed growth average daily attendance pursuant to subdivisions (b) and (c).
