Summary

Existing law establishes a system of public education in this state, under which local educational agencies throughout the state provide instruction to pupils in kindergarten and grades 1 to 12, inclusive, and the segments of public postsecondary education, consisting of the University of California, the California State University, and the California Community Colleges, provide instruction to postsecondary students. Numerous provisions of the Education Code provide for the exercise of authority, including the joint exercise of authority by 3 or more public officers or other persons, within the public education system by officials of these local educational agencies, public postsecondary segments, and other governmental entities. This bill would make nonsubstantive changes in a provision that requires that, with respect to the Education Code, words giving a joint authority to 3 or more public officers or other persons are construed as giving that authority to a majority of those public officers or other persons, unless it is otherwise expressed in the provisions of the code giving that authority.
