	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   SB 148, as amended, McGuire.  Career technical education:
Career and Job Skills Education Act.   School districts:
reorganization: local control funding formula.  
   Existing law establishes a system of public elementary and
secondary education in this state. Under this system, school
districts throughout the state operate and maintain schools at which
they provide instruction. Existing law establishes procedures under
which new school districts may be formed by dissolving 2 or more
existing school districts of the same kind from the entire territory
of the original school districts, by forming one or more new school
districts of the same kind from all or parts of one or more existing
school districts of the same kind, or by unifying or deunifying
school districts as specified. Under existing law, new school
districts may also be formed through an action to transfer territory,
including an action to transfer all or part of an existing school
district to another existing school district.  
   Existing law also establishes a system of funding public
elementary and secondary education in this state. This funding system
includes, among other elements, a local control funding formula
through which funds are apportioned to school districts for
educational purposes based on the total number of pupils attending
the schools in those districts and the number of those pupils who
fall into specified categories, including English learners, pupils
eligible for free or reduced-price meals, and foster youth. 

   This bill would enact numerous provisions specifying computations
to determine the funding, pursuant to the local control funding
formula, of school districts that are, or proposed to be, affected by
the various types of actions that may be undertaken to reorganize
districts, as defined.  
   Existing law establishes the office of the Superintendent of
Public Instruction, and specifies that the Superintendent is the ex
officio Director of the State Department of Education. Under existing
law, the State Department of Education administers numerous programs
relating to elementary and secondary education.  
   Existing law authorizes, among other things, the governing board
of any high school district to establish and maintain, in connection
with any high school or regional occupational center or program under
its jurisdiction, cooperative career technical education programs or
community classrooms as part of a career technical education course,
as specified.  
   This bill would establish the Career and Job Skills Education Act,
which would authorize the governing board of one or more school
districts, county offices of education, direct-funded charter
schools, and regional occupational centers or programs operated by
joint powers authorities with the written consent from each
participating local educational agency, that operate any
state-approved career technical education sequence of courses, to
apply to the Superintendent for a grant for the development and
enhancement of high-quality career technical education programs. The
bill would require each grant recipient to, among other things, adopt
certain policies and procedures and establish a career technical
education program that satisfies specified criteria. The bill would
establish the Career and Job Skills Education Fund in the State
Treasury, and would also require the Superintendent to, among other
things, administer the fund and distribute awards through an annual
application process to applicants that meet certain requirements. The
bill would further require the Superintendent and the State Board of
Education to incorporate appropriate metrics into state-adopted
accountability measures to determine career readiness of California's
high school pupils.  
   The bill would, to the extent that funds are appropriated in the
annual Budget Act of 2015, allocate funds to the Superintendent, for
deposit in the Career and Job Skills Education Fund, for purposes of
the Career and Job Skills Education Act, and would express the intent
of the Legislature that funds be appropriated from the General Fund,
as necessary, for those purposes in the 2017-18 and 2018-19 fiscal
years. 
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes.
State-mandated local program: no.

  SECTION 1.    The Legislature finds and declares
all of the following:
   (a) Section 51220 of the Education Code states that the adopted
course of study for grades 7 to 12, inclusive, shall offer courses in
the following areas of study:
   (1) Applied arts, including instruction in the areas of consumer
and homemaking education, industrial arts, general business
education, or general agriculture.
   (2) Career technical education designed and conducted for the
purpose of preparing youth for gainful employment in the occupations
and in the numbers that are appropriate to the personnel needs of the
state and the community served and relevant to the career desires
and needs of the pupils.
   (b) Section 51224 of the Education Code states, "The governing
board of any school district maintaining a high school shall
prescribe courses of study designed to provide the skills and
knowledge required for adult life for pupils attending the schools
within its school district. The governing board shall prescribe
separate courses of study, including, but not limited to, a course of
study designed to prepare prospective pupils for admission to state
colleges and universities and a course of study for career technical
training."
   (c) California has invested $500 million in Proposition 1D funding
for purposes of modernizing and building new career technical
education facilities for high school pupils.
   (d) California has invested $90 million in the purchase of new
career technical education equipment for high school pupils.
   (e) California has invested $500 million in the California Career
Pathways Trust for the development of robust career pathways aligned
with regional economies.
   (f) California needs to satisfy maintenance of effort requirements
to continue to receive funds pursuant to the federal Carl D. Perkins
Career and Technical Education Improvement Act of 2006 (20 U.S.C.
Sec. 2301 et seq.), for the improvement of career technical education
programs.
   (g) To help the state remain a competitive economy, California
high schools need to provide resources that promote career readiness
and 21st century career technical skills for pupils.
   (h) California needs to use limited resources more efficiently to
do a better job of preparing pupils for an economy that demands
workers to have strong academic and career knowledge and skills, to
be adaptable to change, and prepared for college and careers.
   (i) The rapid growth of California's population and the labor
force depends on attracting, supporting, and retaining businesses
that pay sustainable wages to highly skilled and qualified workers.
Therefore, improvement in the overall quality of California's
workforce is a vital component to the state's continued economic
development.
   (j) California needs to develop and sustain educational programs
that can provide youth with career readiness, organizational help in
their pursuit of career opportunities, leadership skills, networks of
support, and the academic and technical skills necessary to serve as
a foundation for successful careers.
   (k) The average high school graduation rate in the United States
for pupils concentrating in career technical education programs is
90.18 percent, compared to an average national freshman graduation
rate of 74.9 percent.
   (l) Eighty-one percent of high school dropouts in the United
States say relevant, real-world learning opportunities would have
kept them from dropping out of high school.
   (m) In the United States, more than 70 percent of secondary career
technical education concentrators pursued postsecondary education
shortly after graduating from high school.
   (n) According to the United States Census Bureau for the year
2010, 70 percent of pupils will not go on to receive a four-year
postsecondary education degree.
   (o) California's future of providing high-quality education and
training programs requires greater public-private collaboration and
cooperation.
   (p) California's policies and methods that provide elementary and
secondary education to prepare young people for lifelong learning,
higher educational opportunities, and high-skilled careers leading to
sustainable wages are major components to California's continued
economic growth.
   (q) California's continued economic development and growth is
critically linked to providing pupils with educational opportunities
that prepare those pupils for lifelong learning, higher education,
and high-skilled, high-wage careers.
   (r) Sustaining and developing a strong system for the delivery of
career technical education should be a top priority of California's
educational systems and must be addressed at the local, regional, and
state levels to establish a seamless system from career technical
education to employment.
   (s) California's career pathways system is a long-term investment
in developing human capital by supplying the demand for a highly
skilled and adaptable workforce. By successfully matching the skills
of the emerging workforce with the needs of California's growth
economies, high-quality career pathways will provide essential
components to ensure the state's competitive edge in the growing
global economy.
   (t) Career pathway programs are an educational approach that is
designed to improve academic rigor through relevant, real-world
experiences by integrating appropriate academic and essential career
technical education knowledge and skills focused around a career
pathway.
   (u) High-quality and coordinated career pathways provide a much
needed nexus between those preparing the future workforce and those
employing the future workforce. The collaboration of educators,
business, and labor fosters the use of contextual and applied
teaching strategies that provide opportunities for all pupils to gain
exposure to career-related coursework, workplace experiences,
internships, and jobsite mentoring.
   (v) A rigorous high-quality education curriculum encompasses a
range of subjects and grade levels. Incorporating career technical
education into that curriculum can strengthen pupils' understanding
of career opportunities, provide pupils with direction for education
beyond high school, and produce better informed citizens in the
state.
