BILL NUMBER: AB 2548 VETOED DATE: 09/24/2016 To the Members of the California State Assembly: I am returning Assembly Bill 2548 without my signature. This bill would impose new requirements for the public school accountability system that the State Board of Education has already developed.¦ The Board has spent more than two years listening to parents, students, teachers, school leaders and the public in order to create a thoughtful and integrated federal, state and local accountability system based on the Local Control Funding Formula.¦ On September 8, 2016, the Board adopted the Local Control Funding Formula indicators which serve as the foundation of the new accountability system. The Board is committed to continuously improving the system and has an annual review process in place for just that reason. It is unnecessary and premature to impose additional requirements at this time.¦¦ Sincerely, Edmund G. Brown Jr.
