Summary

Existing law requires a school district, county office of education, or charter school to accept coursework satisfactorily completed by a pupil in foster care, a pupil who is a homeless child or youth, a former juvenile court school pupil, a pupil who is a child of a military family, a pupil who is a migratory child, or a pupil participating in a newcomer program while attending another public school, a juvenile court school, a charter school, a school outside the United States, or a nonpublic, nonsectarian school or agency even if the pupil did not complete the entire course. Existing law requires a school district, county office of education, or charter school to issue that pupil full or partial credit for the coursework completed. This bill instead would require a school district, county office of education, or charter school to issue credit for coursework satisfactorily completed by a pupil with one of the above-described characteristics while attending that local educational agency. The bill would require a school district, county office of education, or charter school in which a pupil with one of the above-described characteristics is currently enrolled to accept partial credit issued by another local educational agency, as provided. The bill would require a school district, county office of education, or charter school to contact the prior public school, juvenile court school, charter school, school in a country other than the United States, or nonpublic, nonsectarian school within 2 business days to request that the pupil's full or partial credit be delivered on a transcript to the school district, county office of education, or charter school and would require the prior public school, juvenile court school, charter school, school in a country other than the United States, or nonpublic, nonsectarian school to deliver that transcript to the school district, county office of education, or charter school within 2 business days of either a notification of enrollment or a specified request for records. By adding to the duties of school districts, county offices of education, and charter schools, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program. 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 the statutory provisions noted above.
