| CA | Signed into law 09/2012 | P-12 | From bill summary: Changes the definition of a dropout recovery high school to mean a school offering instruction in any of grades 9-12 in which 50% or more of pupils are either designated as dropouts or left a school and were not otherwise enrolled in a school for a period of at least 180 days and the school provides specified instruction. Requires a dropout recovery high school to submit to the state superintendent a certification that the high school meets the definition of a dropout recovery high school, and provide specified data in support of that designation. Clarifies definition of dropout recovery high school in provision prohibiting graduation rates for pupils in dropout recovery high schools from being included in the Academic Performance Index (API). http://www.leginfo.ca.gov/pub/11-12/bill/asm/ab_1651-1700/ab_1668_bill_20120921_chaptered.pdf

| CA | Vetoed 09/2012 | P-12 | From bill summary: Prohibits California Longitudinal Pupil Achievement Data System (CALPADS) from including an individual pupil in dropout rate data more than one time, and prohibits the inclusion of a pupil more than once in the dropout rates indicated in the report on dropouts the state superintendent annually submits to the governor, legislature, and state board. Incorporates additional changes in Section 48070.6

| CA | Signed into law 09/2012 | P-12 | From bill summary: Authorizes the superintendent of public instruction to develop and implement a specified program of school quality review to complement the Academic Performance Index (API), if an appropriation for this purpose is made in the annual budget act. Requires the state superintendent to annually provide to local educational agencies and the public an explanation of the individual components of the API and their relative values, and prohibits an additional element from being incorporated into the API until at least one full school year after the state board's decision to include the element into the API. Requires the state superintendent to annually determine the accuracy of graduation rate data, and deletes the requirement that the state superintendent report annually to the legislature on graduation and dropout rates. Authorizes the state superintendent to incorporate into the API the rates at which pupils successfully promote from one grade to the next in middle school and high school and matriculate from middle school to high school, as well as pupil preparedness for postsecondary education and career. Deletes the requirement that the API be used to measure the progress of specified schools and to rank all public schools for the purpose of the High Achieving/Improving Schools Program.
Requires that results from certain standards-based achievement tests and the high school exit examination constitute no more than 60% of the value of the index for secondary schools, commencing with the baseline API calculation in 2016 (currently these test results constitute at least 60% of the value of the index). Requires the state superintendent, on or before October 1, 2013, to report to the legislature a method for increasing emphasis on pupil mastery of standards in science and social science through the system of public school accountability or by other means and an alternative method or methods, in place of decile rank, for determining eligibility, preferences, or priorities for any statutory program that uses decile rank as a determining factor.
Incorporates additional changes in Section 52052 of the Education Code, proposed by AB 1668 (http://www.leginfo.ca.gov/pub/11-12/bill/asm/ab_1651-1700/ab_1668_bill_20120921_chaptered.pdf, chaptered 9/21/12), to be operative only if AB 1668 and this bill are both chaptered and become effective January 1, 2013, and this bill is chaptered last. http://www.leginfo.ca.gov/pub/11-12/bill/sen/sb_1451-1500/sb_1458_bill_20120926_chaptered.pdf

| LA | Adopted 06/2012 | P-12 | Clarifies that graduation index provisions only apply to schools with 10 or more students in a cohort. Makes methodology for calculating the cohort graduation rate adjustment factor that was to go into effect in 2014 effective for 2013. Removes provision incrementally increasing the graduation rate goal beyond 65% in 2012 (provides that graduation rate goal is 65% in 2011 and 2012; does not set graduation rate goal beyond 2012).
