Summary

Existing law requires each person between the ages of 6 and 18 years, inclusive, who is not otherwise exempt, to attend the public full-time day school in the school district in which his or her parent or guardian is a resident. Existing law authorizes the governing boards of 2 or more school districts to enter into an agreement, for a term not to exceed 5 school years, for the interdistrict attendance of pupils who are residents of the districts. Existing law requires the supervisor of attendance of the district of residence to issue an individual permit verifying the district's approval, pursuant to policies of the board and terms of the agreement, for the transfer and for the applicable period of time. Existing law establishes an appeal process for pupils whose permits are denied, or, in the absence of an agreement between the districts, if the districts fail or refuse to enter into an agreement. This bill would preclude a pupil who is enrolled in a school pursuant to these provisions from having to reapply for an interdistrict transfer, and would require the governing board of the school district of enrollment to allow the pupil to continue to attend the school in which he or she is enrolled, except if the district of residence and district of enrollment agree otherwise. The bill would provide an exception for this agreement authority for pupils entering grade 11 or 12 in the subsequent school year.
