BILL ANALYSIS Ó SB 1211 Page 1 Date of Hearing: June 15, 2016 ASSEMBLY COMMITTEE ON EDUCATION Patrick O'Donnell, Chair SB 1211 (Huff) - As Introduced February 18, 2016 SENATE VOTE: 38-0 SUBJECT: Educational programs SUMMARY: Deletes provisions of the Education Code that are no longer applicable or that have been rendered obsolete by the enactment of the Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF). Specifically, this bill: 1)Repeals the Community Policing and Mentoring for School Safety Pilot Program. 2)Repeals the requirement for the California Department of Education to conduct a study, which was due March 31, 2007, on schools that qualify for federal severe need meal reimbursements. 3)Repeals the Nell Soto Parent/Teacher Involvement Program. 4)Repeals the Tom Hayden Community-Based Parent Involvement SB 1211 Page 2 Grant Program. 5)Repeals intent language. FISCAL EFFECT: According to the Senate Appropriations Committee, pursuant to Senate Rule 28.8, negligible state costs. COMMENTS: The enactment of the LCFF resulted in the elimination of funding for nearly all categorical programs. This means the statutory rules that govern those programs are no longer applicable. This is the third bill authored by Senator Huff in the last few years to remove Education Code provisions that have either been rendered inapplicable by the LCFF or that are obsolete for other reasons. The first two bills were SB 971 (Huff), Chapter 923, Statutes of 2014, and SB 416 (Huff), Chapter 538, Statutes of 2015. The provisions repealed by this bill are: The Community Policing and Mentoring for School Safety Pilot Program. This was a pilot program that is no longer funded. A study of schools that qualify for federal severe need meal reimbursements. This study was completed in 2007. The Nell Soto Parent/Teacher Involvement Program. This was a categorical program that was eliminated by the LCFF. The Tom Hayden Community-Based Parent Involvement Grant Program. This was a competitive grant program that is no SB 1211 Page 3 longer funded. The Nuclear Age Education Curriculum. This is intent language that was never funded.
