Summary

Existing law requires the adopted course of study for grades 1 to 12, inclusive, to include instruction in various areas of study, including, but not limited to, English, mathematics, and social sciences. Existing law requires the State Department of Education to adopt model curricula in certain areas of instruction, including, among others, driver education and training, gang violence suppression, and substance abuse prevention. This bill would require the Superintendent of Public Instruction to consider identifying existing model curricula for kindergarten or any of grades 1 to 6, inclusive, on computer science. The bill would also require the Superintendent to consider recommending the revision of existing, or the development of new, model curricula for kindergarten or any of grades 1 to 6, inclusive, on computer science, and to consider submitting, on or before July 1, 2017, any model curricula revised or developed as a result of this bill to the State Board of Education for adoption. The bill would provide that, in addition to funds that may be appropriated by the Legislature for purposes of implementing the provisions of the bill, the Superintendent may seek out and accept funding from nonstate sources to defray the cost of identifying, developing, or revising the model curricula. The bill would make these provisions inoperative on July 1, 2018, and would repeal them on January 1, 2019.
