LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL’S DIGEST

SB 971, as introduced, Cannella. School finance: categorical programs.

Existing law establishes the public school system in this state, and, among other things, provides for the establishment of county superintendents of schools, school districts, and charter schools throughout the state and for their provision of instruction at the public elementary and secondary schools these local educational agencies maintain. Existing law establishes a public school financing system that requires state funding for county superintendents of schools, school districts, and charter schools to be calculated pursuant to a local control funding formula, as specified.

Existing law establishes various education programs under which funding is provided for specific educational purposes, which are commonly known as categorical programs, including, among many others, programs for community-based English tutoring, teacher training, and class size reduction. Existing law further authorizes local educational agencies to expend, for any local educational purpose, the funds previously required to be spent on specified categorical education programs.

This bill would repeal many provisions requiring, authorizing, or prescribing the elements of certain categorical education programs, and would make conforming changes, correct cross-references, and make other nonsubstantive changes.

Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes. State-mandated local program: no.

The people of the State of California do enact as follows:

The Superintendent of Public Instruction, in computing
apportionments and allowances from the State School Fund for
the second principal apportionment, shall determine the following
for the regular day classes of the elementary schools maintained
by each school district:

(a) For grades 1 to 3, inclusive, he shall determine the number
of classes, the number of pupils enrolled in each class, the total
enrollment in all such classes, the average number of pupils
enrolled per class, and the total of the numbers of pupils which
are in excess of thirty (30) in each class.

For those districts which do not have any classes with an
enrollment in excess of 32 and whose average size for all the
classes is 30.0 or less, there shall be no excess declared. For those
districts which have one or more classes in excess of an enrollment
of 32 or whose average size for all the classes is more than 30, the
excess shall be the total of the number of pupils which are in excess
of 30 in each class having an enrollment of more than 30.

(b) For grades 4 to 8, inclusive, he shall determine the total
number of pupils enrolled, the number of full-time equivalent
classroom teachers, and the average number of pupils per each
full-time equivalent classroom teacher. He shall also determine
the excess if any, of pupils enrolled in such grades in the following
manner:

(1) Determine the number of pupils by which the average
number of pupils per each full-time equivalent classroom teacher
for the current fiscal year exceeds the greater of the average number
of pupils per each full-time equivalent classroom teacher in all the
appropriate districts of the state, as determined by the
Superintendent of Public Instruction, for October 30, 1964, or the
average number of pupils per each full-time equivalent classroom
teacher which existed in the district on either October 30, 1964 or
March 30, 1964, as selected by the governing board.

(2) Multiply the number determined in (1) above by the number
of full-time equivalent classroom teachers of the current fiscal
year.

(3) Reduce the number determined in (2) above by the remainder
which results from dividing such number by the average number
of pupils per each full-time equivalent teacher for October 30,
1964, as determined by the Superintendent of Public Instruction
in (1) above.

(c) He shall compute the product obtained by multiplying the
excess number of pupils, if any, under the provisions of subdivision
(a) of this section by ninety-seven hundredths (0.97), and shall
multiply the product so obtained by the ratio of statewide change
in average daily attendance to district change in average daily
attendance. Change in average daily attendance shall be determined
by dividing average daily attendance in grades 1, 2 and 3 reported
for purposes of the first principal apportionment of the current
year by that reported for purposes of the first principal
apportionment of the preceding year.

(d) If the school district reports that it has maintained, during
the current fiscal year, any classes in which there were enrolled
pupils in excess of thirty (30) per class pursuant to subdivision (a)
of this section, and there is no excess number of pupils computed
pursuant to subdivision (b) of this section, he shall decrease the
average daily attendance reported under the provisions of Section
41601 by the product determined under subdivision (c) of this
section.

(e) If the school district reports that it has maintained, during
the current fiscal year, no classes in which there were enrolled
pupils in excess of thirty (30) per class determined pursuant to
subdivision (a) of this section, and there is an excess number of
pupils computed pursuant to subdivision (b) of this section, he
shall make the following computation:

He shall compute the product obtained by multiplying the excess
number of pupils computed pursuant to subdivision (b) of this
section by ninety-seven hundredths (0.97) and shall multiply the
product so obtained by the ratio of statewide change in average
daily attendance to the district change in average daily attendance.
He shall decrease the average daily attendance reported under the
provisions of Section 41601 by the resulting product.

(f) If the school district reports that it has maintained, during
the current fiscal year, any classes in which there were enrolled
pupils in excess of thirty (30) per class determined pursuant to
subdivision (a) of this section, and there is an excess number of
pupils computed pursuant to subdivision (b) of this section, he
shall make the following computation:

He shall add to the product determined under subdivision (c) of
this section, the product determined under subdivision (e) of this
section and decrease the average daily attendance reported under
the provisions of Section 41601 by this total amount.

The governing board of each school district maintaining
elementary schools shall report for the fiscal year 1964-65 and
each year thereafter the information required for the determination
to be made by the Superintendent of Public Instruction under the
provisions of this section in accordance with instructions provided
on forms furnished and prescribed by the Superintendent of Public
Instruction. Such information shall be reported by the school
district together with, and at the same time as, the reports required
to be filed for the second principal apportionment of the State
School Fund. The forms on which the data and information is
reported shall include a certification by each school district
superintendent or chief administrative officer that the data is correct
and accurate for the period covered, according to his best
information and belief.

For purposes of this section, a “full-time equivalent classroom
teacher” means an employee of an elementary, high school, or
unified school district, employed in a position requiring
certification qualifications and whose duties require him to teach
pupils in the elementary schools of that district in regular day
classes for the full time for which he is employed during the regular
schoolday. In reporting the total number of full-time equivalent
classroom teachers, there shall be included, in addition to those
employees defined above, the full-time equivalent of all fractional
time for which employees in positions requiring certification
qualifications are required to devote to teaching pupils in the
elementary schools of the district in regular day classes during the
regular schoolday.

For purposes of this section, the number of pupils enrolled in
each class means the average of the active enrollment in that class
on the last teaching day of each school month which ends prior to
April 15th of each school year.

The provisions of this section are not applicable to school
districts with less than 101 units of average daily attendance for
the current fiscal year.

Although no decreases in average daily attendance shall be made
for the fiscal year 1964-65, reports are required to be filed under
the provisions of this section, and the Superintendent of Public
Instruction shall notify each school district the amount of the
decrease in state allowances which would have been effected had
such decrease in average daily attendance been applied.

The Superintendent of Public Instruction shall adopt rules and
regulations which he may deem necessary for the effective
administration of this section. Such rules and regulations may
specify that no decrease in average daily attendance reported under
the provisions of Section 41601 shall be made for a school district
on account of large classes due to instructional television or team
teaching, which may necessarily involve class sizes at periods
during the day larger than the standard set forth in this section.

appropriated for the purpose of this block grant in the annual
Budget Act or another statute, less the total amount calculated in
paragraph (2), by the statewide total of charter school average
daily attendance, as determined at the second principal
apportionment for the 2005-06 fiscal year.

(2) The statewide average amount, as computed by the
Superintendent, of funding per identified educationally
disadvantaged pupil received by school districts in the current
fiscal year pursuant to Article 2 (commencing with Section 54020)
of Chapter 1 of Part 29. This amount shall be multiplied by the
number of educationally disadvantaged pupils enrolled in the
charter school. The resulting amount, if greater than zero, shall
not be less than the minimum amount of Economic Impact Aid
funding to which a school district of similar size would be entitled
pursuant to Section 54022. For purposes of this subdivision, a
pupil who is eligible for subsidized meals pursuant to Section
49552 and is identified as an English learner pursuant to
subdivision (a) of Section 306 shall count as two pupils.

(3) For each charter school, the Superintendent shall multiply
the amount calculated in paragraph (1) by the school’s average
daily attendance as determined at the second principal
apportionment for the 2005-06 fiscal year.

(4) The Superintendent shall add the amounts computed in
paragraphs (2) and (3). The resulting amount shall be the charter
school categorical block grant that the Superintendent shall
apportion to each charter school from funds appropriated for this
purpose in the annual Budget Act or another statute. The
Superintendent shall allocate an advance payment of this grant as
early as possible, but no later than October 31, 2005, based on
prior year average daily attendance as determined at the second
principal apportionment or, for a charter school in its first year of
operation that commences instruction on or before September 30,
2005, on estimates of average daily attendance for the current fiscal
year determined pursuant to Section 47652.

(b) (1) For the 2006-07 fiscal year, the categorical block grant
allocated by the Superintendent for charter schools shall be four
hundred dollars ($400) per unit of charter school average daily
attendance as determined at the second principal apportionment
for the 2006-07 fiscal year. This amount shall be supplemented
by the amount calculated in paragraph (2).

(2) The statewide average amount, as computed by the
Superintendent, of funding per economic impact aid-eligible pupil
count received by school districts in the current fiscal year,
pursuant to Article 2 (commencing with Section 54020) of Chapter
1 of Part 29, shall be multiplied by the number of economic impact
aid-eligible pupils enrolled in the charter school. The resulting
amount, if greater than zero, shall not be less than the minimum
amount of Economic Impact Aid funding to which a school district
of similar size would be entitled pursuant to Section 54022.

(c) (1) For the 2007-08 fiscal year, the categorical block grant
allocated by the Superintendent for charter schools shall be five
hundred dollars ($500) per unit of charter school average daily
attendance as determined at the second principal apportionment
for the 2007-08 fiscal year. For each fiscal year thereafter, this
per unit amount shall be adjusted for the cost-of-living adjustment,
as determined pursuant to Section 42238.1, for that fiscal year.
This amount shall be supplemented in the 2007-08 fiscal year and
each fiscal year thereafter by the amount calculated in paragraph
(2).

(2) The statewide average amount, as computed by the
Superintendent, of funding per economic impact aid-eligible pupil
count received by school districts in the current year, pursuant to
Article 2 (commencing with Section 54020) of Chapter 1 of Part
29, shall be multiplied by the number of economic impact
aid-eligible pupils enrolled in the charter school. The resulting
amount, if greater than zero, shall not be less than the minimum
amount of Economic Impact Aid funding to which a school district
of similar size would be entitled pursuant to Section 54022.

(d) It is the intent of the Legislature to fully fund the categorical
block grant for charter schools as specified in this section and to
appropriate additional funding that may be needed in order to
compensate for unanticipated increases in average daily attendance
and counts of economic impact aid-eligible pupils, pursuant to
Article 2 (commencing with Section 54020) of Chapter 1 of Part
29, in charter schools. In any fiscal year in which the department
identifies a deficiency in the categorical block grant, the department
shall identify the available balance for programs that count towards
meeting the requirements of Section 8 of Article XVI of the
California Constitution and have unobligated funds for the year.
On or before July 1, the department shall provide the Department
of Finance with a list of those programs and their available
balances, and the amount of the deficiency, if any, in the categorical
block grant. Within 45 days of the receipt of a notification of
deficiency, the Director of Finance shall verify the amount of the
deficiency in the categorical block grant and direct the Controller
to transfer an amount, equal to the lesser of the amount available
or the amount needed to fully fund the categorical block grant,
from those programs to the categorical block grant. The Department
of Finance shall notify the Joint Legislative Budget Committee
within 30 days of any transfer made pursuant to this section.

(e) Commencing October 1, 2007, the Legislative Analyst’s
Office shall triennially convene a work group to review,
commencing with appropriations proposed for the 2008-09 fiscal
year, the appropriateness of the funding level provided by the
categorical block grant established in this section.

(f) Categorical block grant funding may be used for any purpose
determined by the governing body of the charter school.

(g) This section shall become operative on July 1, 2013.

(a) (1) In addition to funds from all other sources, the
Superintendent shall apportion to each school district that operates
a community day school four thousand dollars ($4,000) per year,
and for each county office of education that operates a community
day school three thousand dollars ($3,000) per year, for each unit
of average daily attendance reported at the annual apportionment
for pupil attendance at community day schools, adjusted annually
commencing with the 1999-2000 fiscal year for the inflation
adjustment calculated pursuant to subdivision (b) of Section
42238.1. Average daily attendance reported for this program shall
not exceed 0.375 percent of a school district’s prior year P2 average
daily attendance in an elementary school district, 0.5 percent of a
school district’s prior year P2 average daily attendance in a unified
school district, or 0.625 percent of a school district’s prior year P2
average daily attendance in a high school district. The units of
average daily attendance of a community day school operated by
a county office of education shall not exceed the unused units of
average daily attendance of the community day schools operated
by the school districts within the jurisdiction of that county office
of education.

(2) The Superintendent may reallocate to any school district
any unexpended balance of the appropriations made for purposes
of this subdivision for actual pupil attendance in excess of the
percentage specified in this subdivision for the school district in
an amount not to exceed one-half of that percentage. However,
the average daily attendance generated by pupils expelled pursuant
to subdivision (d) of Section 48915, shall not be subject to these
percentage caps on average daily attendance.

(b) The average daily attendance of a community day school
shall be determined by dividing the total number of days of
attendance in all full school months, by a divisor of 70 in the first
period of each fiscal year, by a divisor of 135 in the second period
of each fiscal year, and by a divisor of 180 at the annual time of
each fiscal year.

(c) The Superintendent shall apportion to each school district
that operates a community day school an amount equal to four
dollars ($4), adjusted annually commencing with the 1999-2000
fiscal year for inflation pursuant to subdivision (b) of Section
42238.1, multiplied by the total of the number of hours each
schoolday, up to a maximum of two hours daily, that each
community day school pupil remains at the community day school
under the supervision of an employee of the school district, or a
consortium of school districts pursuant to Section 48916.1,
reporting the attendance of the pupils for apportionment funding
following completion of the full six-hour instructional day.

(d) It is the intent of the Legislature that school districts enter
into consortia, as feasible, for purposes of providing community
day school programs. A school district with fewer than 2,501 units
of average daily attendance may request a waiver for any fiscal
year of the funding limitations set forth in this section. The
Superintendent shall approve a waiver if he or she deems it
necessary in order to permit the operation of a community day
school of reasonably comparable quality to those offered in a
school district with 2,501 or more units of average daily attendance.
In no event shall the amount allocated pursuant to a waiver exceed
the amount provided for one teacher pursuant to Section 42284,
for pupils enrolled in kindergarten and grades 1 to 6, inclusive, or
the amount provided for one teacher pursuant to Section 42284,
for pupils enrolled in grades 7 to 12, inclusive. The provisions of
this act shall not apply to a school district that applied for a waiver
within the funding limits established by this subdivision but was
denied funding or not fully funded.

(e) The department shall evaluate and report to the appropriate
legislative policy committees and budget committees on or before
October 1, 1998, and for two years thereafter the following
programmatic and fiscal issues:

(1) The number of expulsions statewide.

(2) The number of school districts operating community day
schools.

(3) Status of the countywide plans as defined in Section 48926.

(4) An evaluation of the community day school average daily
attendance funding percentage cap.

(5) Number of small school districts requesting and the number
receiving a waiver under this section.

(6) The effect of hourly accounting under Section 48663 for
purposes of receiving the additional funding under Section 48664.

(7) The number of pupils and average daily attendance served
in community day programs, further identified as the number
expelled pursuant to subdivision (b) of Section 48915, subdivision
(d) of Section 48915, other expulsion criteria, or referred through
a formal school district process.

(8) Pupil outcome data and other data as required under Section
48916.1.

(9) Other programmatic or fiscal matters as determined by the
department.

(f) The additional funds provided in subdivisions (a), (c), and
(d) shall only be allocated to the extent that funds are appropriated
for this purpose in the annual Budget Act or other legislation, or
both.

(g) A one-time adjustment shall be made to the amount specified
in subdivision (a), for the 1998-99 fiscal year and subsequent fiscal
years, by increasing that amount by the statewide average quotient
resulting from dividing the average daily attendance specified in
subparagraph (B) of paragraph (3) of subdivision (a) of Section
