| 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

Also requires the Commission on State Mandates to notify the above-referenced committees within 30 days of the date upon which a test claim is filed by a local educational agency, where that agency submits a written narrative that identifies certain information regarding a regulation alleged to contain a mandate.

| ID | Signed into law 04/2011 | P-12 | This legislation makes amendments to SB 1184 – the third bill in the Students Come First plan. These changes are as follows:
Additional relief is granted from the state's "use it or lose it" requirement for state instructional staff funding. The relief is expanded from the 6%, 8% and 10% granted by SB 1184 for FY12, FY13 and FY14+ to 7%, 9.5% and 11%. This adjustment allows the amount of relief to better reflect the actual budget that was set for Public Schools after the introduction of SB 1184.
Revises provisions relating to fractional average daily attendance for students attending more than one school district or public charter school, or who are enrolled in online courses.
Revises provisions relating to staff allowances and funded positions and revises provisions relating to the education portion of the experience and education multiplier table.
Revises provisions relating to: certain staff salaries; Idaho digital learning academy funding, and; distribution of state funds for certain math and science courses.
Establishes provisions for dual credits for early completers, making them eligible for up to 36 post-secondary credits of dual credit courses in twelfth grade.
Revises provisions permitting post secondary institutions to operate public charter schools.
Declares an emergency for all sections of this act and SB 1184, and language is added to provide greater time specificity for certain provisions. This will ensure that the budget and laws established for public schools cannot be interrupted in an untimely manner, allowing school districts to begin planning and budgeting immediately.http://legislature.idaho.gov/legislation/2011/H0345.pdf.

| NE | Signed into law 03/2011 | P-12 | From the fiscal note: Repeals the section of statute requiring a student achievement coordinator at NDE. The
general fund savings from eliminating the position will be $103,420 in FY12 and FY13.
Increases teacher and administrator certificate fees from $55 to $70 with increases to provide for the expenses of 1.6 FTE at NDE who investigate alleged violations of professional ethics and practices by educators. Transfers funds remaining in the School District Reorganization Fund on July 1, 2011to the Education Innovation Fund. The balance of the reorganization fund was $702,178 on December 31, 2010. NDE anticipates there will be an additional reorganization that will be eligible for reimbursement from the fund in the current year in the amount of $425,915. So, the projected revenue that will be transferred to the Education Innovation Fund is estimated to be slightly in excess of $276,300, depending upon the interest earned the remainder of the fiscal year.
Education Innovation Fund: The bill changes the allocation of the Education Innovation Fund beginning in FY2011-12 through
FY2015-16. The fund is derived from lottery proceeds. Current law provides for the first $1 million of the fund to be used for the
Excellence in Teaching Act and the remainder to be allocated, after administrative expenses, for distance education equipment and
incentives provided to school districts and educational service units.
Provides for the accumulated balance and annual revenue of the Education Innovation Fund to be used to fund a couple of
existing state aid programs for high ability learners and early childhood education grants. The high ability learner program will be funded with lottery funds for five years and early childhood education grants will be shifted to this fund source for two years. The Center for Student Leadership and Extended Learning Act, a state funded program, is also switched to lottery funding for the next five years as is the multicultural education program. An integrated student information system will also be funded by the
Education Innovation Fund. Continues funding for distance education equipment, incentives and administration but instead of $1 million being set aside for this program each fiscal year, the bill provides that only the amount necessary to fund loans for students who received a loan in the prior fiscal year through the Attracting Excellence to Teaching component of the program will be funded.

| NE | Signed into law 02/2011 | P-12 | Fiscal Note summary: LB 18 amends the Tax Equity and Educational Opportunities Support Act (TEEOSA) which is the formula used to distribute state aid to education. Increases the needs calculated for school systems from 100% to 102.23% in the current school year, FY2010-11. The amount of aid received by a school is the difference between calculated needs and formula resources. The formula is changed to increase state aid to include one-time allocations from the federal Education Jobs Fund in FY2010-11.
Federal funds expended pursuant to the bill are considered to be general fund operating expenditures for purposes of state aid. The
funds are to be allocated to schools on the last business day of April. School districts are not required to revise previously adopted
budgets for FY2010-11 unless expenditures are increased in FY2010-11 with the additional state aid received per LB 18.
The bill also changes the certification date for state aid for two fiscal years. The aid certification date for aid distributed in the current
fiscal year is changed to on or before March 1, 2011. The subsequent year's state aid for FY2011-12 is to be certified on or before July 1, 2011. The State Department of Education estimates the formula change will increase state aid to schools by $58,610,740 in FY2010-11. Increased expenditures by school districts result in increased state aid two years later per the state aid formula. However, any future general fund fiscal impact of the one-time allocation of federal funds is dependent upon whether increased funds are used by schools to spend at a higher level or are used to offset revenue shortfalls. This fiscal note assumes the majority of schools will be using the proceeds to offset decreases in other resources, so no future fiscal impact is projected.
