Overview
This bill adjusts California’s Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF) to better support school districts and charter schools serving students experiencing homelessness. It requires the state Department of Education to establish regional cost adjustment factors to account for regional differences in housing and labor costs, starting in 2030. The bill also increases the supplemental and concentration grant amounts for districts with higher percentages of unduplicated pupils (including those experiencing homelessness, foster youth, and English learners), and includes transition adjustments for the 2025-26 fiscal year. Finally, it requires the Legislative Analyst’s Office to study the impact of these changes on school funding.
