Summary
Existing law requires the governing board of a school district to place a classified employee on a compulsory leave of absence in specified circumstances, including, among other circumstances, if the employee is charged by complaint, information, or indictment filed in a court of competent jurisdiction with the commission of a sex offense, as defined. This bill would require a school district or charter school to notify the State Department of Education when a classified employee of the school district or charter school is dismissed, is suspended, or is terminated from employment as a result of misconduct against a child, as specified, and to notify, in writing, the classified employee who is the subject of the notification, as specified, thereby imposing a state-mandated local program. The bill would require the department, upon request by a school district or charter school, to provide that information only for purposes of verifying previous employment of a classified employee, as specified. The bill would require the information to be kept confidential and would require the department to remove that information if a person submits a certified copy of a court order of an acquittal or statement of factual innocence pertaining to the alleged misconduct against a child. The bill would make conforming and nonsubstantive changes. The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates determines that the bill contains costs mandated by the state, reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to these statutory provisions.
