the Education Code, relating to pupils.


	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   AB 1368, as amended, Pan. Pupils: California Healthy Kids Survey.
   Existing law requires the Commission on Teacher Credentialing, the
State Board of Education, and the State Department of Education to
provide to the State Chief Information Officer the individual
nonpersonally identifiable or aggregate data related to, among other
things, pupil assessment and accountability, including, but not
limited to, data generated from, or related to, adequate yearly
progress, graduation rates, pupils who drop out of school, and
demographics of pupils and teachers.
   Existing law requires the Superintendent of Public Instruction, on
or before August 1, 2011, and annually thereafter, to submit to the
Governor, the Legislature, and the State Board of Education a report
called the Annual Report on Dropouts in California. Existing law
requires the report to include specified information and authorizes
the report to include relevant data on school climate and pupil
engagement from the California Healthy Kids Survey.
   This bill would  establish the California Healthy Kids Survey,
which would be intended to collect data on specified pupil
perceptions. The bill would  require a school district  , to
the extent that funding is made available, to administer the
California Healthy Kids Survey  on a biannual basis  to
pupils in grades 5, 7, 9, and 11, and would require a school district
to comply with specified parent and guardian notification and
consent provisions prior to administering the survey, thereby
imposing a state-mandated local program.
   The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local
agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the
state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that
reimbursement.
   This bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates
determines that the bill contains costs mandated by the state,
reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to these
statutory provisions.
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes.
State-mandated local program: yes.
