INTRODUCED BY   Assembly Member Brown

                        FEBRUARY 22, 2013

   An act to amend Section 33126.15 of the Education Code, relating
to school accountability.


	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   AB 1083, as introduced, Brown. School accountability report card:
standardized template.
   Existing law requires the State Department of Education to develop
and recommend for adoption by the State Board of Education a
standardized template intended to simplify the process for completing
the school accountability report card and to make the school
accountability report card more meaningful to the public. Existing
law requires the department, by July 1, 2006, to develop, and
recommend for adoption by the state board, a revision to the
standardized template.
   This bill would make a nonsubstantive change to that latter
provision.
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: no.
State-mandated local program: no.
