This bill died with 2009-2010 Regular Session. It reached “To Executive” and never advanced before the session ended, so it can no longer move — a new version would have to be reintroduced in the current session.

This bill is no longer active — its legislative session has ended, so there is no live prognosis. It would have to be reintroduced in the current session to move again.

Summary

(1) Existing law establishes the Standardized Testing and Reporting Program, also known as the STAR Program, and requires the State Department of Education to ensure that school districts administer the California Standards Test to their pupils, as specified. Under existing law, a pupil or his or her parent or guardian may authorize the release of the pupil's results to a postsecondary educational institution. This bill would require the department to ensure that a California Standards Test that is augmented for the purpose of determining readiness for college-level coursework inform a pupil in grade 11 that he or she may request that results from that assessment be released to a postsecondary educational institution. (2) Existing law establishes the Assumption Program of Loans for Education, the California Physician Assistant Loan Assumption Program, and the State Nursing Assumption Program of Loans for Education, each administered by the Student Aid Commission, whereby eligible postsecondary education students may enter into loan repayment agreements with the commission in exchange for working in certain specified high-need areas at certain occupations. This bill would make clarifying changes to these provisions regarding the retention of student loans for program participants who are unable to satisfy the terms of their loan assumption agreements. (3) Existing law establishes the California Community Colleges under the administration of the Board of Governors of the California Community Colleges. Existing law requires that any person who is employed to teach adult or community college classes for not more than 67% of the hours per week considered a full-time assignment for regular employees having comparable duties, excluding substitute service, be classified as a temporary employee. Existing law authorizes the governing board of a community college district to employ any qualified individual as a temporary faculty member. Except for clinical nursing faculty as provided below, temporary faculty members serving pursuant to this provision may not be employed by any one school district for more than 2 semesters or 3 quarters within any period of 3 consecutive years. A temporary faculty member serving as a full-time clinical nursing faculty or as part-time clinical nursing faculty teaching 60% or more of the hours per week considered a full-time assignment for regular employees may be employed by any one school district for up to 4 semesters or 6 quarters within any period of 3 consecutive academic years between July 1, 2007, and June 30, 2014, inclusive. This bill would instead allow nursing faculty that teach up to 67% of the hours per week considered a full-time assignment for regular employees having comparable duties, excluding substitute service, to be employed by any one school district in the amounts described above. (4) Existing law creates the Community College Part-Time Faculty Office Hours Program to provide community college students equal access to academic advice assistance and to encourage community college districts to provide opportunities by compensating part-time faculty who hold office hours related to their teaching load. "Part-time faculty" is defined as any person who is employed to teach for not more than 60% of the hours per week considered a full-time assignment. This bill would change the definition of "part-time faculty" by increasing the percentage of the hours per week to 67. (5) Existing law imposes a filing fee of $485 to file a notice of appeal in a civil case. Existing law requires, until January 1, 2010, that $65 of this fee be deposited into the California State Law Library Special Account for the support of the California State Law Library. This bill would extend the operation of these provisions until January 1, 2015.
