Summary

Existing law establishes the public elementary and secondary education system in this state, which, as administered by school districts throughout the state, offers instruction in kindergarten and grades 1 to 12, inclusive. Existing law also establishes the University of California, under the administration of the Regents of the University of California, and the California State University, under the administration of the Trustees of the California State University, as 2 of the segments of public postsecondary education in this state. This bill would express the intent of the Legislature to hold the public elementary and secondary education system responsible for adequately preparing its pupils and that graduates of the public elementary and secondary education system should be prepared to enroll at a campus of the University of California or the California State University without the need to take remedial education courses.
