SUBJECT : Budget Act of 2013: School Finance
SOURCE : Author
DIGEST : This bill corrects a drafting error and enacts
technical clean-up to the budget trailer bill, AB 97 (Assembly
Budget Committee), that established the Local Control Funding
Formula for school districts, charter schools, and county
offices of education (COEs); and enacts technical clean-up to
the 2013 Budget Act, AB 110.
Assembly Amendments delete prior version and insert current

ANALYSIS : This bill provides clarifying and technical
amendments to AB 97. Beginning in the 2013-14 fiscal year, AB
97 (Committee on Budget), establishes a Local Control Funding
Formula for school districts, charter schools, and COEs. In
addition, AB 97 requires school districts and COEs, on or
before July 1, 2014 (with annual updates beginning in 2015), to
adopt a local control and accountability plan (LCAP) to measure

various state and local goals, as specified, using a template
adopted by the State Board of Education.
Remaining in AB 97 are the following provisions for career and
technical education:
1.Maintenance of three categorical programs: Partnership
Academies; Agricultural Vocational Education; and Specialized
Secondary Programs.
2.A two-year "maintenance of effort" requirement for counties or
districts operating Regional Occupation Centers/Programs and
Adult Ed programs, meaning in the budget year and the year
following they must spend on those programs at least what they
spent in 2012-13.
3.Requirement that district and county LCAPs include details of
student opportunities and school-level goals for college and
career preparation. Annual updates to LCAPs must include
growth toward college/career prep goals.
In addition, AB 86 (main education trailer bill) includes:
1.$250 million in one-time Proposition 98 funds for the Career
Pathways Trust, a competitive grant program for regional
partnerships linking high schools, community colleges and
businesses to build and improve career pathway programs.
2.$25 million in planning grants for regional consortia
including school districts and community colleges to plan for
the future of Adult Ed.
This bill:
1.Removes a provision that was not part of the budget agreement,
and that was inadvertently included in AB 97. The provision
specifies how school districts shall spend the funding
adjustment they receive for students enrolled in grades 9
through 12.
2.Clarifies that a school district shall spend no less on
home-to-school transportation than the amount of funds the
district spent for home-to-school transportation programs in
the 2012-13 fiscal year.
