| CA | Signed into law 09/2010 | P-12 | From bill analysis: Modifies the criteria for determining "at risk" for purposes of eligibility to participating in a California Partnership Academy (CPA) as follows: (1) Defines irregular attendance to mean absence from school 20 percent or more of the school year; (2) Adds the following to the existing indicators to be considered in making the determination "at risk:"
(a) Scoring "below basic" or "far below basic" in math and English language arts on standardized tests administered through the Standardized Testing and Reporting (STAR) Program.
(b) Maintaining a grade point average of 2.2 or below or the equivalent of a C minus.
Deletes provisions that specify the academic criteria applying to non-at-risk pupils participating in a CPA, and deletes the requirement that students be provided a laboratory class related to the academy's occupational field. Requires an assurance that each CPA pupil will be provided with:
(a) Instruction in at least three academic subjects each school term that prepares the pupil for a high school diploma, and where possible and appropriate, meets subject requirements for admission to the California State University (CSU) and the University of California (UC).
(b) Career technical education courses at each grade level that are part of an occupational course sequence that targets comprehensive skills.
Deletes the authority of the superintendent of public instruction to issue a maximum of 155 grants per year for purposes of planning partnership academies. Requires districts, whenever practical, to provide a second planning period for the CPA teacher. Specifies that a CPA pupils must be provided with an employer-based internship or work experience in the summer following 11th grade or during 12th grade.

| CA | Signed into law 09/2010 | P-12 | From bill summary: Requires the department of education, contingent on federal funding for this purpose and in consultation with the department of finance and the legislative analyst's office, to prepare the California Longitudinal Pupil Achievement Data System (CALPADS) to include data on a quarterly rate of pupil attendance. Requires that CALPADS be capable of issuing to local educational agencies periodic reports on district, school, class and individual pupil rates of absence and chronic absentees. States legislative intent to support the development of early warning systems to identify and support individual pupils who are at risk of academic failure or of dropping out of school.
Existing law requires the superintendent of public instruction annually to submit to the governor, the legislature, and the state board of education a report on dropouts using the data produced by CALPADS.
New provision requires the report to include chronic absentee rates when that data is available. Makes implementation of the provisions regarding the inclusion of pupil attendance data in CALPADS contingent upon the appropriation of federal funds specifically for such purposes. http://www.leginfo.ca.gov/pub/09-10/bill/sen/sb_1351-1400/sb_1357_bill_20100930_chaptered.pdf

| IL | Adopted 08/2010 | P-12 | P.A. 96-106 (S.B. 1796), effective July 30, 2009, establishes the Illinois Hope and Opportunity Pathways through Education (IHOPE) program with the goal of re-enrolling high school dropouts into programs that will enable these individuals to earn their high school diplomas. The legislation directs the state board to implement and administer the program, including approving IHOPE plans developed by regional offices of education and/or the Chicago School District, and adopting rules setting forth the requirements for the development of the IHOPE Plan and fund distribution process, and other rules.
From Illinois Register: New Part 210, Subpart A, sets forth the requirements for an IHOPE program, whose plan for the program must be approved by the state board of education for it to be eligible to receive general state aid or an incentive grant. The requirements for that plan are contained in Section 210.70 and criteria for review and approval of the plan are in Section 210.75. The requirements protect the rights of students who choose to enroll in IHOPE programs by ensuring that:
• before individuals can be enrolled in an IHOPE program, they, along with their parents or guardians if they are less than 18 years old, receive information about the program
• each student has a learning plan (Individual Instructional Plan) that addresses his/her individual needs and goals
• the IHOPE program and school district awarding the high school diploma work in cooperation to provide services to students who had an Individualized Education Program in the last high school they attended; and
• school records are retained by the district of residence awarding the diploma in accordance with the Illinois School Student Records Act [105 ILCS 10] and the state board of education's rules governing Student Records (23 Ill. Adm. Code 375).
The rules also require that individuals providing instruction be certified in Illinois and that personnel providing support services be properly qualified. Other provisions address continuation of programs beyond the initial approval year and suspension and revocation of program approval in certain circumstances. Subpart B of the rules establishes the process for applying for an incentive grant.
There is no appropriation in Fiscal Year 2011 for incentive grants; however, promulgating rules now for the application process will ensure that the grant process can begin immediately when funding is approved.

Defines "alternative/non-traditional education program" as a program operating in affiliation with a school; a program does not report full-time equivalent (FTE) or receive an Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) designation. Achievement data for students enrolled in the program are reported back to the school where the student is reported for FTE. Provides a program may be housed within a school, on the same site or at a different location. Provides that programs may include Attendance Recovery, Credit Recovery, Disciplinary Program, Early College, Evening School, and Open Campus.
Clarifies that an "Alternative/Non-traditional Education School" has an official school code and serves as the home school for students enrolled. The school receives an AYP designation; reports FTE counts for all enrolled students; and earns Quality Basic Education (QBE) formula funds directly. Defines "Community-based Alternative Education/Non-traditional Program" as a type of alternative education/non-traditional program where students are engaged in educationally relevant and meaningful learning experiences in the school and larger community. The academic curriculum is integrated into work-based learning and structured work experiences using partnerships among business, industry, government, community and school, including Performance Learning Centers. Defines "sparsity grant" as a grant provided to each LEA that is unable to offer its students or a portion of its students educational programs and services comparable to those which are typically being offered to students in the state; the inability to offer students comparable programs and services is attributable, at least in part, to the fact that the LEA has full-time equivalent counts less than base size specified in state law.
Requires each LEA to provide an alternative/non-traditional education program/school for students in grades 6-12 with appropriate due process, who have been suspended from his/her regular classroom. Permits LEAs to provide an alternative/non-traditional education program/school to serve a student who is eligible to remain in his/her regular classroom but is more likely to succeed in a non-traditional educational setting. Authorizes an LEA to provide an alternative/non-traditional education program/school jointly with one or more LEAs. Authorizes an LEA to contract with educational management organizations to provide a non-traditional/alternative education program/school. Sets requirements/parameters for such contracts. Permits an LEA to use sparsity grant funds for all alternative/non-traditional education program(s)/school(s), but specifies that funds must be used exclusively for salaries and benefits for certified positions and assistants/paraprofessionals working in the program/school. Requires that all alternative/non-traditional education programs/schools only provide curriculum aligned to Georgia Performance Standards (GPS); permits curriculum to be delivered through computer-assisted instruction and online courses. Requires that programs/schools participate in state testing program, provide counseling services, operate in full compliance with federal and state laws and state board rules governing special education students and students with special needs, provide teachers that meet the requirements of the Georgia Professional Standards Commission in all classes, adhere to maximum class size provisions, and allocate to all Alternative/Non-traditional Education Programs/Schools the same expenditure per segment(s) based on what the student earns at his or her Full Time Equivalent reporting school, including federal and state funds allocated to the LEA for the student.
For students in grades 9-12, permits LEAs to (1) award course credit based on demonstrated competency on course examination(s) for course work completed while enrolled in the program/school in lieu of the 150/135 clock hours of instruction and (2) determine the length of the school day in lieu of the school day length set in state board rule.
Establishes reporting requirements for alternative/non-traditional education programs/schools. Requires each LEA to maintain and annually report to the state department of education on each alternative/non-traditional education program/school. Requires each program/school school improvement plan to demonstrate how the alternative/non-traditional education program/school modified SBOE rules, including methods to measure competency as well as what is defined as a full school day. Requires LEAs to seek parental and public input before submitting a program/school's improvement plan to the department of education. http://www.doe.k12.ga.us/_documents/doe/legalservices/160-4-8-.12.pdf

| GA | Signed into law 05/2010 | P-12 | 20-2-326 defines:
--"Career academy" as (1) a specialized charter school established by a partnership between one or more local boards of education and a technical school or college or (2) a small learning community where a student receives academic instruction at his/her assigned high school, along with work-based learning opportunities at an industry center or technical school or college
--"Chronically low-performing high school" as one (1) with a graduation rate below 60% for three consecutive years (using the National Governors Association methodology), or (2) that has not made adequate yearly progress (AYP) for three consecutive years
--"Choice technical high school" as a high school other than the one the student is assigned to by residence, designed to prepare a student for postsecondary education and employment. Provides a choice technical high school may be operated by a local school system or technical college. Also permits a choice technical high school to be operated as a charter school under a governance board comprised of parents, employers and representatives from the local school board
--"Focused program of study" as a rigorous academic core combined with (1) a focus in math and science, (2) a focus in humanities, fine arts and foreign language, or (3) a coherent sequence of career pathway courses that prepares a student for postsecondary education or immediate employment after high school graduation.
Also defines "small learning community" as a subset of high school students and teachers joined around a broad career or academic theme where teachers have common planning time to connect teacher assignments and assessments to college and career readiness standards. Provides that students voluntarily apply for enrollment in a small learning community but must be accepted, and such enrollment must be approved by the student's parent. Specifies that a small learning community also includes a career academy organized around a specific career theme and integrates academic and career instruction, provides work-based learning opportunities, and prepares students for postsecondary education and employment, in partnership with local employers, community organizations and postsecondary institutions.
New Section 20-2-328 directs the state board of education, subject to legislative appropriation, to establish a competitive grant program for local school systems to implement school reform measures in selected high schools. Requires the state board to establish grant criteria, which must include that priority for grants be given to chronically low-performing high schools. Directs the state board to develop, for high schools receiving a grant, an evidence-based model for serving at-risk students, which must focus on specified elements designed to increase student achievement; reduce dropout; help students and their parents set and achieve career and educational goals; and help students learn and apply study skills, coping skills and other habits that produce successful students and adults. Requires that the at-risk model program include:
(1) Diagnostic assessments
(2) A process for identifying at-risk students, closely monitored by the department of education to ensure that students are properly identified and receive timely and appropriate guidance and assistance, and to ensure no group is disproportionately represented
(3) An evaluation component in each high school to ensure programs provide students an opportunity to earn a high school diploma.
Identifies components the at-risk model program may include to facilitate 9th grade success, such as:
(1) Flexible scheduling to increase student time in language/arts and math to eliminate academic deficiencies
(2) Ninth grade student-teacher ratios no higher than those in any other grade in the high school
(3) Using effective teachers as leaders for teacher teams in 9th grade to improve instructional planning, delivery and reteaching strategies
(4) Assigning teacher mentors to meet frequently with students to provide planned lessons on study skills and other "habits of success" to help students become independent learners and help them receive the assistance they need to pass 9th grade
(5) Ninth grade career courses incorporating a series of miniprojects throughout the school year that require the application of grade-level reading, math and science skills to complete, require students to use a range of technology, and help students explore a range of educational and career options to help them formulate post high school goals and give them a reason to stay in school and work toward achieving their stated goals.
Requires the state board to adopt rules for chronically low-performing high schools receiving a reform grant, to make the high schools more relevant to and effective for all students. Requires that such rules encourage high schools to implement a comprehensive school reform research-based model that focuses on eight specified elements, including setting high expectations for all students and fostering collaboration among academic and career/technical teachers.
New Section 20-2-329 requires high schools receiving a reform grant per Section 20-2-328 to provide focused programs of study that, whether offered at a choice technical high school, a career academy, a traditional high school, or on site at a two- or four-year postsecondary institution:
(1) Are aligned with state board-set graduation requirements, including 4 years of math and 4 years of English with an emphasis on developing reading and writing skills to meet college and career readiness standards
(2) Implement a teacher adviser system
(3) Provide students in grades 9-12 with information on educational programs offered in high school, two- and four-year institutions, and through apprenticeship programs and how these programs can lead to a variety of career fields. Requires that districts offer opportunities for field trips, job shadowing and other means to help students and their parents in revising, if appropriate, the student's individual graduation plan.
(4) Enroll students by grade 9 into one of the following options for earning a high school diploma and preparing students for postsecondary education and a career which will include a structured program of academic study with in-depth studies in: (A) Mathematics and science; (B) Humanities, fine arts, and foreign language; or (C) A career pathway that leads to passing an employer certification exam in a high demand, high skill, or high wage career field or to an associate's degree or bachelor's degree.
(5) Implement the state board-developed at-risk model program
(6) Schedule annual conferences to help students and their parents set educational and career goals and create individual graduation plans
Directs the state board to adopt rules necessary to carry out the provisions of this bill.
