Summary

(1) Existing law requires the Superintendent of Public Instruction, on or before September 1, 1992, to develop, and the State Board of Education to adopt, regulations, as specified, governing the use of behavioral interventions for individuals with exceptional needs receiving special education and related services. Existing law prescribes the calculations to be made to determine the amount of General Fund moneys to allocate to each special education local plan area. This bill would require the Superintendent to perform various calculations to increase the amount of funding per unit of average daily attendance for each special education local plan area, as specified. The bill would appropriate $65,000,000 from the General Fund to the Superintendent in augmentation of a specified item of the Budget Act of 2009 for purposes of providing that increased funding. The bill also would appropriate $10,000,000 from the General Fund to the Superintendent for allocation on a one-time basis to county offices of education and special education local plan areas, as specified. The bill would direct that $85,000,000 be appropriated from the General Fund on a one-time basis in each of the 2011–12 to 2016–17 fiscal years, inclusive, except as provided, to the Superintendent for allocation to school districts on a per-pupil basis. The Superintendent would be required to use specified calculations to compute the allocation for each school district. The bill would deem the funding described in this paragraph as payments in full satisfaction of, and in lieu of, any reimbursable mandate claims resulting from the statement of decision of the Commission on State Mandates regarding the Behavioral Intervention Plans Mandated Cost Test Claim. (2) This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as an urgency statute.
