Overview
This bill changes how California school districts calculate their funding based on average daily attendance. Currently, districts use the average of the three most recent years. This bill would require districts to use the average of the five most recent years, unless that average is higher than the three-year average. Additionally, districts can exclude five days with the lowest attendance from the current and prior years when calculating this average.
Key provisions
- Requires school districts to use the average of the five most recent prior fiscal years for calculating average daily attendance.
- Allows districts to exclude five days with the lowest recorded attendance from the current and prior fiscal years when calculating the average daily attendance.
