Summary
Existing law authorizes a school district or charter school to maintain a transitional kindergarten program. Existing law requires a school district or charter school, as a condition of receipt of apportionment for pupils in a transitional kindergarten program, to ensure that, in the 2024–25 school year, a child who will have their 5th birthday between September 2 and June 2 is admitted to a transitional kindergarten program. Existing law authorizes a school district or charter school to enroll a child whose 4th birthday is between June 3 and September 1 preceding the school year if specified conditions are met, including that the transitional kindergarten classroom maintains at least one adult for every 10 pupils and maintains a classroom enrollment that does not exceed 20 pupils. Existing law requires the Superintendent of Public Instruction to withhold a specified amount of funding from a school district or charter school that fails to comply with those conditions. Existing law requires the Controller to incorporate verification of compliance with those conditions in a specified audit guide for the 2023–24 and 2024–25 fiscal years. This bill would specify that the provision requiring the Superintendent to withhold funding from a school district or charter school that fails to comply with those conditions does not apply for the 2023–24 school year. The bill would eliminate the requirement for the Controller to incorporate verification of compliance with those conditions in the audit guide for the 2023–24 fiscal year.
