| CA | Signed into law 10/2011 | P-12 | From bill summary: Existing law sets the minimum schoolday in a high school, except certain schools, including a regional occupational center, and except for pupils enrolled in a work experience education program, at 240 minutes.
Existing law, until July 1, 2012, requires the superintendent of public instruction to compute an amount of funding for each pupil concurrently enrolled in regular secondary school classes and classes operating pursuant to a joint powers agreement that became effective prior to January 1, 2008, for the period of time the pupil attends classes pursuant to the joint powers agreement, by performing specified calculations. Existing law requires, for these pupils, that a 180-minute schoolday be computed and reported as attendance for 3.4 of the full 240-minute schoolday for purposes of those calculations. Existing law requires that the number of hours of instruction at regional occupational centers or programs that are claimed for funding pursuant to these provisions be used, in addition to specified hourly rates, in the computation of the average daily attendance of the regional occupational center or program. Existing law, until July 1, 2012, makes the Center for Advanced Research and Technology, operating pursuant to a joint powers agreement between the Clovis Unified School District and the Fresno Unified School District, ineligible to receive charter school funding.
This bill would extend to July 1, 2017, the provisions regarding the ineligibility of the Center for Advanced Research and Technology for charter school funding and the computation of attendance for pupils concurrently enrolled in regular secondary school classes and classes operating pursuant to a joint powers agreement that became effective prior to January 1, 2008. http://www.leginfo.ca.gov/pub/11-12/bill/sen/sb_0351-0400/sb_361_bill_20111008_chaptered.pdf

| OH | Signed into law 06/2011 | P-12 | Directs the department to develop standards for determining, from existing data, the amount of annual operating expenditures for classroom instructional purposes and for nonclassroom purposes for each school district, each community school that is not an internet- or computer-based community school, each Internet- or computer-based community school, and each STEM school. Directs the department to present these standards to the state board for consideration no later than January 1, 2012. Requires the state board to consider the proposed standards and adopt a final set of standards by July 1, 2012. Directs the department to categorize all districts, joint vocational school districts, and community schools that are not computer- or Internet-based, into 3-5 categories (3-5 categories for each type of school), based on average daily student enrollment (joint vocational school districts = average daily membership), and to categorize all internet- or computer-based community schools into a single category, and to categorize all STEM schools into a single category. Using the aforementioned standards, directs the department to compute for fiscal years 2008-2012, and annually for each fiscal year thereafter:
(1) The percentage of each district's, community school's, or STEM school's total operating budget spent for classroom instructional purposes
(2) The statewide average percentage for all districts, community schools, and STEM schools combined spent for classroom instructional purposes
(3) The average percentage for each of the aforementioned categories of districts and schools spent for classroom instructional purposes
(4) The ranking of each district, community school, or STEM school within its respective category according to:
(a) From highest to lowest percentage spent for classroom instructional purposes
(b) From lowest to highest percentage spent for noninstructional purposes.
Requires the department to note within each category of district, joint vocational school district, the districts/joint vocational school districts, and among non-internet or community based community schools, internet- and computer based community schools and STEM schools, schools that are among the 20% for lowest operating expenditures or among the 20% for highest performance index scores (for joint vocational school districts, among the 20% with the highest performance measures required for career-technical education under 20 U.S.C. 2323). Requires specified operating information to be reported on the department Web site and on each district's, community school's and STEM school's report card.
Requires the department, in accordance with the board standards for categorization of school district expenditures as described above, to annually determine each fiscal year for each district: (1) The ratio of the district's operating expenditures for instructional purposes compared to its operating expenditures for administrative purposes; (2) The per-pupil amount of the district's expenditures for instructional purposes; (3) The per pupil amount of the district's operating expenditures for administrative purposes (4) The percentage of the district's operating expenditures attributable to school district funds; and to determine the statewide average among all school districts for each of the items (1) through (4) above. Directs the department to annually report to each district the district's information for (1) through (4) and the statewide averages in (5). Requires each district, upon receipt of the report, to publish the information on its Web site and publish the report in another way so that it is available to all parents of students enrolled in the district and to taxpayers of the district.
