2574.  

For the 2013-14 fiscal year and for each fiscal year
thereafter, the Superintendent annually shall calculate a county
local control funding formula for each county superintendent of
schools as follows:

(a) Compute a county office of education operations grant equal
to the sum of each of the following amounts:

(1) Six hundred fifty-five thousand nine hundred twenty dollars
($655,920).

(2) One hundred nine thousand three hundred twenty dollars
($109,320) multiplied by the number of school districts for which
the county superintendent of schools has jurisdiction pursuant to
Section 1253.

(3) (A) Seventy dollars ($70) multiplied by the number of units
of countywide average daily attendance, up to a maximum of
30,000 units.

(B) Sixty dollars ($60) multiplied by the number of units of
countywide average daily attendance for the portion of countywide
average daily attendance, if any, above 30,000 units, up to a
maximum of 60,000 units.

(C) Fifty dollars ($50) multiplied by the number of units of
countywide average daily attendance for the portion of countywide
average daily attendance, if any, above 60,000, up to a maximum
of 140,000 units.

(D) Forty dollars ($40) multiplied by the number of units of
countywide average daily attendance for the portion of countywide
average daily attendance, if any, above 140,000 units.

(E) For purposes of this section, countywide average daily
attendance means the aggregate number of annual units of average
daily attendance within the county attributable to all school districts
for which the county superintendent of schools has jurisdiction
pursuant to Section 1253, charter schools authorized by school
districts for which the county superintendent of schools has
jurisdiction, and charter schools authorized by the county
superintendent of schools.

(4) For the 2014-15 fiscal year and each fiscal year thereafter,
adjust each of the rates provided in the prior year pursuant to
paragraphs (1), (2), and (3) by the percentage change in the annual
average value of the Implicit Price Deflator for State and Local
Government Purchases of Goods and Services for the United States,
as published by the United States Department of Commerce for
the 12-month period ending in the third quarter of the prior fiscal
year. This percentage change shall be determined using the latest
data available as of May 10 of the preceding fiscal year compared
with the annual average value of the same deflator for the 12-month
period ending in the third quarter of the second preceding fiscal
year, using the latest data available as of May 10 of the preceding
fiscal year, as reported by the Department of Finance.

(b) Determine the enrollment percentage of unduplicated pupils
pursuant to the following:

(1) (A) For the 2013-14 fiscal year, divide the enrollment of
unduplicated pupils in all schools operated by a county
superintendent of schools in the 2013-14 fiscal year by the total
enrollment in those schools in the 2013-14 fiscal year.

(B) For the 2014-15 fiscal year, divide the sum of the enrollment
of unduplicated pupils in all schools operated by a county
superintendent of schools in the 2013-14 and 2014-15 fiscal years
by the sum of the total enrollment in those schools in the 2013-14
and 2014-15 fiscal years.

(C) For the 2015-16 fiscal year and each fiscal year thereafter,
divide the sum of the enrollment of unduplicated pupils in all
schools operated by a county superintendent of schools in the
current fiscal year and the two prior fiscal years by the sum of the
total enrollment in those schools in the current fiscal year and the
two prior fiscal years.

(D) (i) For purposes of the quotients determined pursuant to
subparagraphs (B) and (C), the Superintendent shall use a county
superintendent of schools’ enrollment of unduplicated pupils and
total pupil enrollment in the 2014-15 fiscal year instead of the
enrollment of unduplicated pupils and total pupil enrollment in
the 2013-14 fiscal year if doing so would yield an overall greater
percentage of unduplicated pupils.

(ii) It is the intent of the Legislature to review each county office
of education’s enrollment of unduplicated pupils for the 2013-14
and 2014-15 fiscal years and provide one-time funding, if
necessary, for a county office of education with higher enrollment
of unduplicated pupils in the 2014-15 fiscal year as compared to
the 2013-14 fiscal year.

(E) For purposes of determining the enrollment percentage of
unduplicated pupils pursuant to this subdivision, enrollment in
schools or classes established pursuant to Article 2.5 (commencing
with Section 48645) of Chapter 4 of Part 27 of Division 4 of Title
2 and the enrollment of pupils other than the pupils identified in
clauses (i) to (iii), inclusive, of subparagraph (A) of paragraph (4)
of subdivision (c), shall be excluded from the calculation of the
enrollment percentage of unduplicated pupils.

(F) The data used to determine the percentage of unduplicated
pupils shall be final once that data is no longer used in the current
fiscal year calculation of the percentage of unduplicated pupils.
This subparagraph does not apply to a change that is the result of
an audit that has been appealed pursuant to Section 41344.

(2) For purposes of this section, an “unduplicated pupil” is a
pupil who is classified as an English learner, eligible for a free or
reduced-price meal, or a foster youth. For purposes of this section,
the definitions in Section 42238.01 of an English learner, a pupil
eligible for a free or reduced-price meal, and foster youth shall
apply. A pupil shall be counted only once for purposes of this
section if any of the following apply:

(A) The pupil is classified as an English learner and is eligible
for a free or reduced-price meal.

(B) The pupil is classified as an English learner and is a foster
youth.

(C) The pupil is eligible for a free or reduced-price meal and is
classified as a foster youth.

a free or reduced-price meal, and is a foster youth.

(3) (A) Under procedures and timeframes established by the
Superintendent, commencing with the 2013-14 fiscal year, a county
superintendent of schools annually shall report the enrollment of
unduplicated pupils, pupils classified as English learners, pupils
eligible for free and reduced-price meals, and foster youth in
schools operated by the county superintendent of schools to the
Superintendent using the California Longitudinal Pupil
Achievement Data System.

(B) The Superintendent shall make the calculations pursuant to
this section using the data submitted through the California
Longitudinal Pupil Achievement Data System.

(C) The Controller shall include instructions, as appropriate, in
the audit guide required by subdivision (a) of Section 14502.1, for
determining if the data reported by a county superintendent of
schools using the California Longitudinal Pupil Achievement Data
System is consistent with pupil data records maintained by the
county office of education.

(c) Compute an alternative education grant equal to the sum of
the following:

(1) (A) For the 2013-14 fiscal year, a base grant equal to the
2012-13 per pupil undeficited statewide average juvenile court
school base revenue limit calculated pursuant to Article 3
(commencing with Section 2550) of Chapter 12, as that article
read on January 1, 2013. For purposes of this subparagraph, the
2012-13 statewide average juvenile court school base revenue
limit shall be considered final as of the annual apportionment for
the 2012-13 fiscal year, as calculated for purposes of the
certification required on or before February 20, 2014, pursuant to
Sections 41332 and 41339.

(B) Commencing with the 2013-14 fiscal year, the per pupil
base grant shall be adjusted by the percentage change in the annual
average value of the Implicit Price Deflator for State and Local
Government Purchases of Goods and Services for the United States,
as published by the United States Department of Commerce for
the 12-month period ending in the third quarter of the prior fiscal
year. This percentage change shall be determined using the latest
data available as of May 10 of the preceding fiscal year compared
with the annual average value of the same deflator for the 12-month
period ending in the third quarter of the second preceding fiscal
year, using the latest data available as of May 10 of the preceding
fiscal year, as reported by the Department of Finance.

(2) A supplemental grant equal to 35 percent of the base grant
described in paragraph (1) multiplied by the enrollment percentage
calculated in subdivision (b). The supplemental grant shall be
expended in accordance with the regulations adopted pursuant to
Section 42238.07.

(3) (A) A concentration grant equal to 35 percent of the base
grant described in paragraph (1) multiplied by the greater of either
of the following:

(i) The enrollment percentage calculated in subdivision (b) less
50 percent.

(ii) Zero.

(B) The concentration grant shall be expended in accordance
with the regulations adopted pursuant to Section 42238.07.

(4) (A) Multiply the sum of paragraphs (1), (2), and (3) by the
total number of units of average daily attendance for pupils
attending schools operated by a county office of education,
excluding units of average daily attendance for pupils attending
schools or classes established pursuant to Article 2.5 (commencing
with Section 48645) of Chapter 4 of Part 27 of Division 4 of Title
2, who are enrolled pursuant to any of the following:

(i) Probation-referred pursuant to Sections 300, 601, 602, and

27 of Division 4 of Title 2 by the sum of the base grant calculated
pursuant to paragraph (1), a supplemental grant equal to 35 percent
of the base grant calculated pursuant to paragraph (1), and a
concentration grant equal to 17.5 percent of the base grant
calculated pursuant to paragraph (1). Funds provided for the
supplemental and concentration grants pursuant to this calculation
shall be expended in accordance with the regulations adopted
pursuant to Section 42238.07.

(C) Add the amounts calculated in subparagraphs (A) and (B).

(d) Add the amount calculated in subdivision (a) to the amount
calculated in subparagraph (C) of paragraph (4) of subdivision (c).

(e) Add all of the following to the amount calculated in

8335.1.  

Before implementing the local subsidy plan, the City
and County of San Francisco, in consultation with the department,
shall develop an individualized county child care subsidy plan for
the city and county that includes the following four elements:

(a) An assessment to identify the city and county’s goal for its
subsidized child care system. The assessment shall examine
whether the current structure of subsidized child care funding
adequately supports working families in the city and county and
whether the city and county’s child care goals coincide with the
state’s requirements for funding, eligibility, priority, and
reimbursement. The assessment shall also identify barriers in the
state’s child care subsidy system that inhibit the city and county
from meeting its child care goals. In conducting the assessment,
the city and county shall consider all of the following:

(1) The general demographics of families who are in need of
child care, including employment, income, language, ethnic, and
family composition.

(2) The current supply of available subsidized child care.

(3) The level of need for various types of subsidized child care
services including, but not limited to, infant care, after-hours care,
and care for children with exceptional needs.

(4) The city and county’s self-sufficiency income level.

(5) Income eligibility levels for subsidized child care.

(6) Family fees.

(7) The cost of providing child care.

(8) The regional market rates, as established by the department,
for different types of child care.

(9) The standard reimbursement rate or state per diem for centers
operating under contracts with the department.

(10) Trends in the county’s unemployment rate and housing
affordability index.

(b) Development of a local policy to eliminate state-imposed
regulatory barriers to the city and county’s achievement of its
desired outcomes for subsidized child care.

(1) The local policy shall do all of the following:

(A) Prioritize lowest income families first.

(B) Follow the family fee schedule established pursuant to
begin delete subdivision (f) of end delete Section begin delete 8263 end delete begin insert 8273 end insert for those families that are
income eligible, as defined by Section 8263.1.

(C) Meet local goals that are consistent with the state’s child
care goals.

(D) Identify existing policies that would be affected by the city
and county’s child care subsidy plan.

(E) (i) Authorize any agency that provides child care and
development services in the city and county through a contract
with the department to apply to the department to amend existing
contracts in order to benefit from the local policy once it is adopted.

(ii) The department shall approve an application to amend an
existing contract if the child care subsidy plan is approved pursuant
to subdivision (b) of Section 8335.3, or modified pursuant to
subdivision (c) of Section 8335.3.

(iii) The contract of a department contractor who does not elect
to request an amendment to its contract remains operative and
enforceable.

(2) (A) The city and county shall, by the end of the first fiscal
year of operation under the approved child care subsidy plan,
demonstrate an increase in the aggregate child days of enrollment
in the county as compared to the enrollment in the final quarter of
the 2004-05 fiscal year.

(B) The amount of the increase shall be at least equal to the
aggregate child days of enrollment in the final quarter of the
2004-05 fiscal year for all contracts amended as provided in
subparagraph (E) of paragraph (1), under which the contractor
receives an increase in its reimbursement rate, times 2 percent.

(C) The amount of the increase shall also be proportional to the
total contract maximum reimbursable amount to reflect the changes
in the budget allocation for each fiscal year of the begin delete pilot project. end delete
begin insert plan. end insert

(3) The local policy may supersede state law concerning child
care subsidy programs with regard only to the following factors:

(A) Eligibility criteria including, but not limited to, age, family
size, time limits, income level, inclusion of former and current
CalWORKs participants, and special needs considerations, except
that the local policy may not deny or reduce eligibility of a family
that qualifies for child care pursuant to Section 8353. Under the
local policy, a family that qualifies for child care pursuant to
Section 8354 shall be treated for purposes of eligibility and fees
in the same manner as a family that qualifies for subsidized child
care on another basis pursuant to the local policy.

(B) Fees including, but not limited to, family fees, sliding scale
fees, and copayments for those families that are not income eligible,
as defined by Section 8263.1.

(C) Reimbursement rates.

(D) Methods of maximizing the efficient use of subsidy funds,
including, but not limited to, multiyear contracting with the
department for center-based child care, and interagency agreements
that allow for flexible and temporary transfer of funds among
agencies.

(c) Recognition that all funding sources utilized by direct service
contractors that provide child care and development services in
the city and county are eligible to be included in the child care
subsidy plan of the city and county.

(d) Establishment of measurable outcomes to evaluate the
success of the plan to achieve the city and county’s child care goals
and to overcome any barriers identified in the state’s child care
subsidy system. The State Department of Social Services shall
have an opportunity to review and comment on the proposed
measurable outcomes before they are submitted to the local child
care planning council for approval pursuant to Section 8335.3.

changes to contract language or other fiscal documents to which
the contractor is required to adhere, including those changes to
terms or conditions that authorize higher reimbursement rates,
modify related adjustment factors, modify administrative or other
service allowances, or diminish fee revenues otherwise available

potential effect of reducing the number of full-time equivalent
children that may be served.

(d) Alternative payment child care systems, as set forth in Article

may be made at any other time to reflect the availability of accurate
data necessary for their completion, provided these documents
receive the approval of the Department of Finance. The Department

submission and the begin delete State Department of Education end delete begin insert department end insert
shall resolve conflicts within an additional 30 working day period.
Contractors shall be given adequate notice before the effective

owed for any other mandate claims. Under no circumstances shall
a school district or community college district be required to remit
funding back to the state to pay for disallowed costs identified by
a Controller audit of claimed reimbursable state-mandated local
program costs. The Controller shall not recover any amount owed
by a school district or community college district pursuant to an
audit of claimed reimbursable state-mandated local program costs
by reducing any amount owed a school district or community
college district for any purpose other than amounts owed for any
other mandate claims. The Controller shall apply amounts received
by each school district or community college district against any
balances of unpaid claims for reimbursement of state-mandated
local costs and interest in chronological order beginning with the

college district may expend the one-time funds received pursuant
to subparagraphs (A) and (B) of paragraph (1) of subdivision (a)
for any purpose, as determined by the governing board.

prioritize the use of these one-time funds for professional
development, induction for beginning teachers with a focus on
relevant mentoring, instructional materials, technology
infrastructure, and any other investments necessary to support
implementation of the common core standards in English language
arts and mathematics, the implementation of English language
development standards, and the implementation of the Next
Generation Science standards.

inflation adjustment specified in Section 42238.1 to the adjustment
specified in Section 42238.485.

(B) For the 2011-12 fiscal year and each fiscal year thereafter,
the Superintendent shall compute an add-on for each school district
by adding the inflation adjustment specified in Section 42238.1 to
the amount computed pursuant to this paragraph for the prior fiscal
year.

(2) Commencing with the 2010-11 fiscal year, the
Superintendent shall compute an add-on for each school district
by dividing each school district’s fiscal year average daily
attendance computed pursuant to Section 42238.5 by the total
adjustments in funding for each district made for the 2007-08
fiscal year pursuant to Section 42238.22 as it read on January 1,
2009.

(d) The sum of the base revenue limit computed pursuant to
subdivision (b) and the add-on computed pursuant to subdivision
(c) shall be multiplied by the district average daily attendance
computed pursuant to Section 42238.5.

(e) For districts electing to compute units of average daily
attendance pursuant to paragraph (2) of subdivision (a) of Section
42238.5, the amount computed pursuant to Article 4 (commencing
with Section 42280) shall be added to the amount computed in
subdivision (c) or (d), as appropriate.

(f) For the 1984-85 fiscal year only, the county superintendent
shall reduce the total revenue limit computed in this section by the
amount of the decreased employer contributions to the Public
Employees’ Retirement System resulting from enactment of
Chapter 330 of the Statutes of 1982, offset by any increase in those
contributions, as of the 1983-84 fiscal year, resulting from
subsequent changes in employer contribution rates.

(g) The reduction required by subdivision (f) shall be calculated
as follows:

(1) Determine the amount of employer contributions that would
have been made in the 1983-84 fiscal year if the applicable Public
Employees’ Retirement System employer contribution rate in effect
immediately before the enactment of Chapter 330 of the Statutes
of 1982 was in effect during the 1983-84 fiscal year.

(2) Subtract from the amount determined in paragraph (1) the
greater of subparagraph (A) or (B):

(A) The amount of employer contributions that would have been
made in the 1983-84 fiscal year if the applicable Public
Employees’ Retirement System employer contribution rate in effect

of equity to be properly excludable from the provisions of this
subdivision by the Superintendent with the approval of the Director
of Finance.

(4) For accounting purposes, the reduction made by this
subdivision may be reflected as an expenditure from appropriate
sources of revenue as directed by the Superintendent.

(h) The Superintendent shall apportion to each school district
the amount determined in this section less the sum of:

(1) The begin insert school end insert district’s property tax revenue received pursuant
to Chapter 3.5 (commencing with Section 75) and Chapter 6
(commencing with Section 95) of Part 0.5 of Division 1 of the

of the California Constitution.

(7) For a unified school district, other than a unified school
district that has converted all of its schools to charter status
pursuant to Section 47606, the amount of statewide average
general-purpose funding per unit of average daily attendance
received by school districts for each of four grade level ranges, as
computed by the department pursuant to Section 47633, multiplied
by the average daily attendance, in corresponding grade level
ranges, of any pupils who attend charter schools funded pursuant
to Chapter 6 (commencing with Section 47630) of Part 26.8 of
Division 4 for which the school district is the sponsoring local
educational agency, as defined in Section 47632, and who reside
in and would otherwise have been eligible to attend a noncharter
school of the school district.

42238.02.  

(a) The amount computed pursuant to this section
shall be known as the school district and charter school local
control funding formula.

(b) (1) For purposes of this section “unduplicated pupil” means
a pupil enrolled in a school district or a charter school who is either
classified as an English learner, eligible for a free or reduced-price
meal, or is a foster youth. A pupil shall be counted only once for
purposes of this section if any of the following apply:

(A) The pupil is classified as an English learner and is eligible
for a free or reduced-price meal.

(B) The pupil is classified as an English learner and is a foster
youth.

(C) The pupil is eligible for a free or reduced-price meal and is
classified as a foster youth.

(D) The pupil is classified as an English learner, is eligible for
a free or reduced-price meal, and is a foster youth.

(2) Under procedures and timeframes established by the
Superintendent, commencing with the 2013-14 fiscal year, a school
district or charter school shall annually submit its enrolled free
and reduced-price meal eligibility, foster youth, and English learner
pupil-level records for enrolled pupils to the Superintendent using
the California Longitudinal Pupil Achievement Data System.

(3) (A) Commencing with the 2013-14 fiscal year, a county
office of education shall review and validate certified aggregate
English learner, foster youth, and free or reduced-price meal
eligible pupil data for school districts and charter schools under
its jurisdiction to ensure the data is reported accurately. The
Superintendent shall provide each county office of education with
appropriate access to school district and charter school data reports
in the California Longitudinal Pupil Achievement Data System
for purposes of ensuring data reporting accuracy.

(B) The Controller shall include the instructions necessary to
enforce paragraph (2) in the audit guide required by Section
14502.1. The instructions shall include, but are not necessarily
limited to, procedures for determining if the English learner, foster
youth, and free or reduced-price meal eligible pupil counts are
consistent with the school district’s or charter school’s English
learner, foster youth, and free or reduced-price meal eligible pupil
records.

(4) The Superintendent shall make the calculations pursuant to
this section using the data submitted by local educational agencies,
including charter schools, through the California Longitudinal
Pupil Achievement Data System. Under timeframes and procedures
established by the Superintendent, school districts and charter
schools may review and revise their submitted data on English
learner, foster youth, and free or reduced-price meal eligible pupil
counts to ensure the accuracy of data reflected in the California
Longitudinal Pupil Achievement Data System.

(5) The Superintendent shall annually compute the percentage
of unduplicated pupils for each school district and charter school
by dividing the enrollment of unduplicated pupils in a school
district or charter school by the total enrollment in that school
district or charter school pursuant to all of the following:

(A) For the 2013-14 fiscal year, divide the sum of unduplicated
pupils for the 2013-14 fiscal year by the sum of the total pupil
enrollment for the 2013-14 fiscal year.

(B) For the 2014-15 fiscal year, divide the sum of unduplicated
pupils for the 2013-14 and 2014-15 fiscal years by the sum of the
total pupil enrollment for the 2013-14 and 2014-15 fiscal years.

(C) For the 2015-16 fiscal year and each fiscal year thereafter,
divide the sum of unduplicated pupils for the current fiscal year
and the two prior fiscal years by the sum of the total pupil
enrollment for the current fiscal year and the two prior fiscal years.

(D) (i) For purposes of the quotients determined pursuant to
subparagraphs (B) and (C), the Superintendent shall use a school
district’s or charter school’s enrollment of unduplicated pupils and
total pupil enrollment in the 2014-15 fiscal year instead of the
enrollment of unduplicated pupils and total pupil enrollment in
the 2013-14 fiscal year if doing so would yield an overall greater
percentage of unduplicated pupils.

(ii) It is the intent of the Legislature to review each school
district and charter school’s enrollment of unduplicated pupils for
the 2013-14 and 2014-15 fiscal years and provide one-time
funding, if necessary, for a school district or charter school with
higher enrollment of unduplicated pupils in the 2014-15 fiscal
year as compared to the 2013-14 fiscal year.

(6) The data used to determine the percentage of unduplicated
pupils shall be final once that data is no longer used in the current
fiscal year calculation of the percentage of unduplicated pupils.
This paragraph does not apply to a change that is the result of an
audit that has been appealed pursuant to Section 41344.

(c) Commencing with the 2013-14 fiscal year and each fiscal
year thereafter, the Superintendent shall annually calculate a local
control funding formula grant for each school district and charter
school in the state pursuant to this section.

(d) The Superintendent shall compute a grade span adjusted
base grant equal to the total of the following amounts:

(1) For the 2013-14 fiscal year, a base grant of:

(A) Six thousand eight hundred forty-five dollars ($6,845) for
average daily attendance in kindergarten and grades 1 to 3,
inclusive.

(B) Six thousand nine hundred forty-seven dollars ($6,947) for
average daily attendance in grades 4 to 6, inclusive.

(C) Seven thousand one hundred fifty-four dollars ($7,154) for
average daily attendance in grades 7 and 8.

(D) Eight thousand two hundred eighty-nine dollars ($8,289)
for average daily attendance in grades 9 to 12, inclusive.

(2) In each year the grade span adjusted base grants in paragraph
(1) shall be adjusted by the percentage change in the annual average
value of the Implicit Price Deflator for State and Local Government
Purchases of Goods and Services for the United States, as published
by the United States Department of Commerce for the 12-month
period ending in the third quarter of the prior fiscal year. This
percentage change shall be determined using the latest data
available as of May 10 of the preceding fiscal year compared with
the annual average value of the same deflator for the 12-month
period ending in the third quarter of the second preceding fiscal
year, using the latest data available as of May 10 of the preceding
fiscal year, as reported by the Department of Finance.

(3) (A) The Superintendent shall compute an additional
adjustment to the kindergarten and grades 1 to 3, inclusive, base
grant as adjusted for inflation pursuant to paragraph (2) equal to
10.4 percent. The additional grant shall be calculated by
multiplying the kindergarten and grades 1 to 3, inclusive, base
grant, as adjusted by paragraph (2), by 10.4 percent.

(B) Until paragraph (4) of subdivision (b) of Section 42238.03
is effective, as a condition of the receipt of funds in this paragraph,
a school district shall make progress toward maintaining an average
class enrollment of not more than 24 pupils for each schoolsite in
kindergarten and grades 1 to 3, inclusive, unless a collectively
bargained alternative annual average class enrollment for each
schoolsite in those grades is agreed to by the school district,
pursuant to the following calculation:

(i) Determine a school district’s average class enrollment for
each schoolsite for kindergarten and grades 1 to 3, inclusive, in
the prior year. For the 2013-14 fiscal year, this amount shall be
the average class enrollment for each schoolsite for kindergarten
and grades 1 to 3, inclusive, in the 2012-13 fiscal year.

(ii) Determine a school district’s proportion of total need
pursuant to paragraph (2) of subdivision (b) of Section 42238.03.

(iii) Determine the percentage of the need calculated in clause
(ii) that is met by funding provided to the school district pursuant
to paragraph (3) of subdivision (b) of Section 42238.03.

(iv) Determine the difference between the amount computed
pursuant to clause (i) and an average class enrollment of not more
than 24 pupils.

(v) Calculate a current year average class enrollment adjustment
for each schoolsite for kindergarten and grades 1 to 3, inclusive,
equal to the adjustment calculated in clause (iv) multiplied by the
percentage determined pursuant to clause (iii).

(C) School districts that have an average class enrollment for
each schoolsite for kindergarten and grades 1 to 3, inclusive, of
24 pupils or less for each schoolsite in the 2012-13 fiscal year,
shall be exempt from the requirements of subparagraph (B) so long
as the school district continues to maintain an average class
enrollment for each schoolsite for kindergarten and grades 1 to 3,
inclusive, of not more than 24 pupils, unless a collectively
bargained alternative ratio is agreed to by the school district.

(D) Upon full implementation of the local control funding
formula, as a condition of the receipt of funds in this paragraph,
all school districts shall maintain an average class enrollment for
each schoolsite for kindergarten and grades 1 to 3, inclusive, of
not more than 24 pupils for each schoolsite in kindergarten and
grades 1 to 3, inclusive, unless a collectively bargained alternative
ratio is agreed to by the school district.

(E) The average class enrollment requirement for each schoolsite
for kindergarten and grades 1 to 3, inclusive, established pursuant
to this paragraph shall not be subject to waiver by the state board
pursuant to Section 33050 or by the Superintendent.

(F) The Controller shall include the instructions necessary to
enforce this paragraph in the audit guide required by Section
14502.1. The instructions shall include, but are not necessarily
limited to, procedures for determining if the average class
enrollment for each schoolsite for kindergarten and grades 1 to 3,
inclusive, exceeds 24 pupils, or an alternative average class
enrollment for each schoolsite pursuant to a collectively bargained
alternative ratio. The procedures for determining average class
enrollment for each schoolsite shall include criteria for employing
sampling.

(4) The Superintendent shall compute an additional adjustment
to the base grant for grades 9 to 12, inclusive, as adjusted for
inflation pursuant to paragraph (2), equal to 2.6 percent. The
additional grant shall be calculated by multiplying the base grant
for grades 9 to 12, inclusive, as adjusted by paragraph (2), by 2.6
percent.

(e) The Superintendent shall compute a supplemental grant
add-on equal to 20 percent of the base grants as specified in
subparagraphs (A) to (D), inclusive, of paragraph (1) of subdivision
(d), as adjusted by paragraphs (2) to (4), inclusive, of subdivision
(d), for each school district’s or charter school’s percentage of
unduplicated pupils calculated pursuant to paragraph (5) of
subdivision (b). The supplemental grant shall be calculated by
multiplying the base grants as specified in subparagraphs (A) to
(D), inclusive, of paragraph (1), as adjusted by paragraphs (2) to
(4), inclusive, of subdivision (d), by 20 percent and by the
percentage of unduplicated pupils calculated pursuant to paragraph
(5) of subdivision (b) in that school district or charter school. The
supplemental grant shall be expended in accordance with the
regulations adopted pursuant to Section 42238.07.

(f) (1) The Superintendent shall compute a concentration grant

(a) (1) The Superintendent, with begin insert the end insert approval of the
state board, shall develop an Academic Performance Index (API),
to measure the performance of schools and school districts,
especially the academic performance of pupils.

(2) A school or school district shall demonstrate comparable
improvement in academic achievement as measured by the API
by all numerically significant pupil subgroups at the school or
school district, including:

(A) Ethnic subgroups.

(B) Socioeconomically disadvantaged pupils.

(C) English learners.

(D) Pupils with disabilities.

(E) Foster youth.

begin insert

(F) Homeless youth.

end insert

(3) (A) For purposes of this section, a numerically significant
pupil subgroup is one that consists of at least 30 pupils, each of
whom has a valid test score.

(B) Notwithstanding subparagraph (A), for a subgroup of pupils
who are foster begin insert youth or homeless end insert youth, a numerically significant
pupil subgroup is one that consists of at least 15 pupils.

(C) For a school or school district with an API score that is
based on no fewer than 11 and no more than 99 pupils with valid
test scores, numerically significant pupil subgroups shall be defined
by the Superintendent, with approval by the state board.

(4) (A) The API shall consist of a variety of indicators currently
reported to the department, including, but not limited to, the results
of the achievement test administered pursuant to Section 60640,
attendance rates for pupils in elementary schools, middle schools,
and secondary schools, and the graduation rates for pupils in
secondary schools.

(B) The Superintendent, with the approval of the state board,
may also incorporate into the API the rates at which pupils
successfully promote from one grade to the next in middle school
and high school, and successfully matriculate from middle school
to high school.

(C) Graduation rates for pupils in secondary schools shall be
calculated for the API as follows:

(i) Four-year graduation rates shall be calculated by taking the
number of pupils who graduated on time for the current school
year, which is considered to be three school years after the pupils
entered grade 9 for the first time, and dividing that number by the
total calculated in clause (ii).

(ii) The number of pupils entering grade 9 for the first time in
the school year three school years before the current school year,
plus the number of pupils who transferred into the class graduating
at the end of the current school year between the school year that
was three school years before the current school year and the date
of graduation, less the number of pupils who transferred out of the
school between the school year that was three school years before
the current school year and the date of graduation who were
members of the class that is graduating at the end of the current
school year.

(iii) Five-year graduation rates shall be calculated by taking the
number of pupils who graduated on time for the current school
year, which is considered to be four school years after the pupils
entered grade 9 for the first time, and dividing that number by the
total calculated in clause (iv).

(iv) The number of pupils entering grade 9 for the first time in
the school year four years before the current school year, plus the
number of pupils who transferred into the class graduating at the
end of the current school year between the school year that was
four school years before the current school year and the date of
graduation, less the number of pupils who transferred out of the
school between the school year that was four years before the
current school year and the date of graduation who were members
of the class that is graduating at the end of the current school year.

(v) Six-year graduation rates shall be calculated by taking the
number of pupils who graduated on time for the current school
year, which is considered to be five school years after the pupils
entered grade 9 for the first time, and dividing that number by the
total calculated in clause (vi).

(vi) The number of pupils entering grade 9 for the first time in
the school year five years before the current school year, plus the
number of pupils who transferred into the class graduating at the
end of the current school year between the school year that was
five school years before the current school year and the date of
graduation, less the number of pupils who transferred out of the
school between the school year that was five years before the
current school year and the date of graduation who were members
of the class that is graduating at the end of the current school year.

(D) The inclusion of five- and six-year graduation rates for
pupils in secondary schools shall meet the following requirements:

(i) Schools and school districts shall be granted one-half the
credit in their API scores for graduating pupils in five years that
they are granted for graduating pupils in four years.

(ii) Schools and school districts shall be granted one-quarter the
credit in their API scores for graduating pupils in six years that
they are granted for graduating pupils in four years.

(iii) Notwithstanding clauses (i) and (ii), schools and school
districts shall be granted full credit in their API scores for
graduating in five or six years a pupil with disabilities who
graduates in accordance with his or her individualized education
program.

(E) The pupil data collected for the API that comes from the
achievement test administered pursuant to Section 60640 and the
high school exit examination administered pursuant to Section
60851, when fully implemented, shall be disaggregated by special
education status, English learners, socioeconomic status, gender,
and ethnic group. Only the test scores of pupils who were counted
as part of the enrollment in the annual data collection of the
California Basic Educational Data System for the current fiscal
year and who were continuously enrolled during that year may be
included in the test result reports in the API score of the school.

(F) (i) Commencing with the baseline API calculation in 2016,
and for each year thereafter, results of the achievement test and
other tests specified in subdivision (b) shall constitute no more
than 60 percent of the value of the index for secondary schools.

(ii)  In addition to the elements required by this paragraph, the
Superintendent, with begin insert the end insert approval of the state board, may
incorporate into the index for secondary schools valid, reliable,
and stable measures of pupil preparedness for postsecondary
education and career.

(G) Results of the achievement test and other tests specified in
subdivision (b) shall constitute at least 60 percent of the value of
the index for primary schools and middle schools.

(H) It is the intent of the Legislature that the state’s system of
public school accountability be more closely aligned with both the
public’s expectations for public education and the workforce needs
of the state’s economy. It is therefore necessary that the
accountability system evolve beyond its narrow focus on pupil test
scores to encompass other valuable information about school
performance, including, but not limited to, pupil preparedness for
college and career, as well as the high school graduation rates
already required by law.

(I) The Superintendent shall annually determine the accuracy
of the graduation rate data. Notwithstanding any other law,
graduation rates for pupils in dropout recovery high schools shall
not be included in the API. For purposes of this subparagraph,
“dropout recovery high school” means a high school in which 50
percent or more of its pupils have been designated as dropouts
pursuant to the exit/withdrawal codes developed by the department
or left a school and were not otherwise enrolled in a school for a
period of at least 180 days.

(J) To complement the API, the Superintendent, with the
approval of the state board, may develop and implement a program
of school quality review that features locally convened panels to
visit schools, observe teachers, interview pupils, and examine pupil
work, if an appropriation for this purpose is made in the annual
Budget Act.

(K) The Superintendent shall annually provide to local
educational agencies and the public a transparent and
understandable explanation of the individual components of the
API and their relative values within the API.

(L) An additional element chosen by the Superintendent and
the state board for inclusion in the API pursuant to this paragraph
shall not be incorporated into the API until at least one full school
year after the state board’s decision to include the element into the
API.

(b) Pupil scores from the following tests, when available and
when found to be valid and reliable for this purpose, shall be
incorporated into the API:

(1) The standards-based achievement tests provided for in
Section 60642.5.

(2) The high school exit examination.

(c) Based on the API, the Superintendent shall develop, and the
state board shall adopt, expected annual percentage growth targets
for all schools based on their API baseline score from the previous
year. Schools are expected to meet these growth targets through
effective allocation of available resources. For schools below the
statewide API performance target adopted by the state board
pursuant to subdivision (d), the minimum annual percentage growth
target shall be 5 percent of the difference between the actual API
score of a school and the statewide API performance target, or one
API point, whichever is greater. Schools at or above the statewide
API performance target shall have, as their growth target,
maintenance of their API score above the statewide API
performance target. However, the state board may set differential
growth targets based on grade level of instruction and may set
higher growth targets for the lowest performing schools because
they have the greatest room for improvement. To meet its growth
target, a school shall demonstrate that the annual growth in its API
is equal to or more than its schoolwide annual percentage growth
target and that all numerically significant pupil subgroups, as
defined in subdivision (a), are making comparable improvement.

(d) Upon adoption of state performance standards by the state
board, the Superintendent shall recommend, and the state board
shall adopt, a statewide API performance target that includes
consideration of performance standards and represents the
proficiency level required to meet the state performance target.

(e) (1) A school or school district with 11 to 99 pupils with
valid test scores shall receive an API score with an asterisk that
indicates less statistical certainty than API scores based on 100 or
more test scores.

(2) A school or school district annually shall receive an API
score, unless the Superintendent determines that an API score
would be an invalid measure of the performance of the school or
school district for one or more of the following reasons:

(A) Irregularities in testing procedures occurred.

(B) The data used to calculate the API score of the school or
school district are not representative of the pupil population at the
school or school district.

(C) Significant demographic changes in the pupil population
render year-to-year comparisons of pupil performance invalid.

(D) The department discovers or receives information indicating
that the integrity of the API score has been compromised.

(E) Insufficient pupil participation in the assessments included
in the API.

(F) A transition to new standards-based assessments
compromises comparability of results across schools or school
districts. The Superintendent may use the authority in this
subparagraph in the 2013-14 and 2014-15 school years only, with
begin insert the end insert approval of the state board.

(3) If a school or school district has fewer than 100 pupils with
valid test scores, the calculation of the API or adequate yearly
progress pursuant to the federal No Child Left Behind Act of 2001
(20 U.S.C. Sec. 6301 et seq.) and federal regulations may be
calculated over more than one annual administration of the tests
administered pursuant to Section 60640 and the high school exit
examination administered pursuant to Section 60851, consistent
with regulations adopted by the state board.

(4) Any school or school district that does not receive an API
calculated pursuant to subparagraph (F) of paragraph (2) shall not
receive an API growth target pursuant to subdivision (c). Schools
and school districts that do not have an API calculated pursuant
to subparagraph (F) of paragraph (2) shall use one of the following:

(A) The most recent API calculation.

(B) An average of the three most recent annual API calculations.

(C) Alternative measures that show increases in pupil academic
achievement for all groups of pupils schoolwide and among
significant subgroups.

(f) Only schools with 100 or more test scores contributing to
the API may be included in the API rankings.

(g) The Superintendent, with the approval of the state board,
shall develop an alternative accountability system for schools under
the jurisdiction of a county board of education or a county
superintendent of schools, community day schools, nonpublic,
nonsectarian schools pursuant to Section 56366, and alternative
schools serving high-risk pupils, including continuation high
schools and opportunity schools. Schools in the alternative
accountability system may receive an API score, but shall not be
included in the API rankings.

(h) For purposes of this section, county offices of education
shall be considered school districts.

(a) (1) This section shall apply to each

to January 1, 1994, but amended, after January 1, 1994, to include
new territory. For plans amended after January 1, 1994, only the
tax increments from territory added by the amendment shall be
subject to this section. All the amounts calculated pursuant to this
section shall be calculated after the amount required to be deposited
in the Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund pursuant to
Sections 33334.2, 33334.3, and 33334.6 has been deducted from
the total amount of tax increment funds received by the agency in

(2) The payments made pursuant to this section shall be in
addition to any amounts the affected taxing entities receive
pursuant to subdivision (a) of Section 33670. The payments made
pursuant to this section to the affected taxing entities, including
the community, shall be allocated among the affected taxing
entities, including the community if the community elects to receive
payments, in proportion to the percentage share of property taxes
each affected taxing entity, including the community, receives
during the fiscal year the funds are allocated, which percentage
share shall be determined without regard to any amounts allocated
to a city, a city and county, or a county pursuant to Sections 97.68
and 97.70 of the Revenue and Taxation Code, and without regard
to any allocation reductions to a city, a city and county, a county,
a special district, or a redevelopment agency pursuant to Sections
97.71, 97.72, and 97.73 of the Revenue and Taxation Code and
Section 33681.12. The agency shall reduce its payments pursuant
to this section to an affected taxing entity by any amount the agency
has paid, directly or indirectly, pursuant to Section 33445, 33445.5,
33445.6, 33446, or any other provision of law other than this
section for, or in connection with, a public facility owned or leased

agency has paid directly or indirectly pursuant to an agreement
with a taxing entity adopted prior to January 1, 1994; or (B)  any
amounts that are unrelated to the specific project area or
amendment governed by this section. The reduction in a payment
by an agency to a school district, community college district, or
county office of education, or for special education, shall be
subtracted only from the amount that otherwise would be available
for use by those entities for educational facilities pursuant to
paragraph (4). If the amount of the reduction exceeds the amount
that otherwise would have been available for use for educational
facilities in any one year, the agency shall reduce its payment in
more than one year.

(3) If an agency reduces its payment to a school district,
community college district, or county office of education, or for
special education, the agency shall do all of the following:

(A) Determine the amount of the total payment that would have
been made without the reduction.

(B) Determine the amount of the total payment without the
reduction which: (i) would have been considered property taxes;
and (ii) would have been available to be used for educational
facilities pursuant to paragraph (4).

(C) Reduce the amount available to be used for educational
facilities.

(D) Send the payment to the school district, community college
district, or county office of education, or for special education,
with a statement that the payment is being reduced and including
the calculation required by this subdivision showing the amount
to be considered property taxes and the amount, if any, available

(E) If, pursuant to paragraphs (2) and (3), an agency reduces its
payments to an educational entity, the calculation made by the
agency pursuant to paragraph (3) shall determine the amount
considered to be property taxes and the amount available to be
used for educational facilities in the year the reduction was made.

(5) Local education agencies that use funds received pursuant
to this section for school facilities shall spend these funds at schools
that are: (A) within the project area, (B) attended by students from
the project area, (C) attended by students generated by projects
that are assisted directly by the redevelopment agency, or (D)
determined by the governing board of a local education agency to
be of benefit to the project area.

(b) Commencing with the first fiscal year in which the agency
receives tax increments and continuing through the last fiscal year
in which the agency receives tax increments, a redevelopment
agency shall pay to the affected taxing entities, including the
community if the community elects to receive a payment, an
amount equal to 25 percent of the tax increments received by the
agency after the amount required to be deposited in the Low and
Moderate Income Housing Fund has been deducted. In any fiscal
year in which the agency receives tax increments, the community
that has adopted the redevelopment project area may elect to
receive the amount authorized by this paragraph.

(c) Commencing with the 11th fiscal year in which the agency
receives tax increments and continuing through the last fiscal year
in which the agency receives tax increments, a redevelopment
agency shall pay to the affected taxing entities, other than the
community which has adopted the project, in addition to the
amounts paid pursuant to subdivision (b) and after deducting the
amount allocated to the Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund,
an amount equal to 21 percent of the portion of tax increments
received by the agency, which shall be calculated by applying the
tax rate against the amount of assessed value by which the current
year assessed value exceeds the first adjusted base year assessed
value. The first adjusted base year assessed value is the assessed
value of the project area in the 10th fiscal year in which the agency
receives tax increment revenues.

(d) Commencing with the 31st fiscal year in which the agency
receives tax increments and continuing through the last fiscal year
in which the agency receives tax increments, a redevelopment
agency shall pay to the affected taxing entities, other than the
community which has adopted the project, in addition to the
amounts paid pursuant to subdivisions (b) and (c) and after
deducting the amount allocated to the Low and Moderate Income
Housing Fund, an amount equal to 14 percent of the portion of tax
increments received by the agency, which shall be calculated by
applying the tax rate against the amount of assessed value by which
the current year assessed value exceeds the second adjusted base
year assessed value. The second adjusted base year assessed value
is the assessed value of the project area in the 30th fiscal year in
which the agency receives tax increments.

(e) (1) Prior to incurring any loans, bonds, or other
indebtedness, except loans or advances from the community, the
agency may subordinate to the loans, bonds, or other indebtedness
the amount required to be paid to an affected taxing entity by this
section, provided that the affected taxing entity has approved these
subordinations pursuant to this subdivision.

(2) At the time the agency requests an affected taxing entity to
subordinate the amount to be paid to it, the agency shall provide
the affected taxing entity with substantial evidence that sufficient
funds will be available to pay both the debt service and the
payments required by this section, when due.

(3) Within 45 days after receipt of the agency’s request, the
affected taxing entity shall approve or disapprove the request for
subordination. An affected taxing entity may disapprove a request
for subordination only if it finds, based upon substantial evidence,
that the agency will not be able to pay the debt payments and the
amount required to be paid to the affected taxing entity. If the
affected taxing entity does not act within 45 days after receipt of
the agency’s request, the request to subordinate shall be deemed
approved and shall be final and conclusive.

(f) (1) The Legislature finds and declares both of the following:

(A) The payments made pursuant to this section are necessary
in order to alleviate the financial burden and detriment that affected
taxing entities may incur as a result of the adoption of a
redevelopment plan, and payments made pursuant to this section
will benefit redevelopment project areas.

(B) The payments made pursuant to this section are the exclusive
payments that are required to be made by a redevelopment agency
to affected taxing entities during the term of a redevelopment plan.

(2) Notwithstanding any other begin delete provision of end delete law, a redevelopment
agency shall not be required, either directly or indirectly, as a
measure to mitigate a significant environmental effect or as part
of any settlement agreement or judgment brought in any action to
contest the validity of a redevelopment plan pursuant to Section
33501, to make any other payments to affected taxing entities, or
to pay for public facilities that will be owned or leased to an
affected taxing entity.

(g) As used in this section, a “local education agency” is a school
district, a community college district, or a county office of
education.

more than one limitation is being amended, the first year in which
one or more of the limitations would have taken effect without the
