Determination of Minimum Level of Education Funding

Cal. EDC § 41202.5

California Statutes

(

a) The Legislature finds and declares both of the following:

(1) The Legislature acted to implement Proposition soon after its passage by defining “total allocations to school districts and community college districts from General Fund proceeds of taxes” to include the entirety of programs funded under the Child Care and Development Services Act (Chapter 2 (commencing with

Section 8200) of Part of Division of Title 1).

(2) In California Teachers Assn. v. Hayes (1992) 5 Cal.App.4th 1513, the Court of Appeal permitted the inclusion of childcare within the Proposition minimum funding guarantee but left open the possibility of excluding particular childcare programs that did not directly advance and support the educational mission of school districts. (

b) It is the intent of the Legislature to clarify that the part-time state preschool programs administered by local educational agencies and the After School Education and Safety Program fall within the Proposition minimum guarantee and to fund other childcare programs less directly associated with school districts from appropriations that do not count toward the Proposition minimum guarantee. (

c) Notwithstanding any other law, for purposes of making the computations required by subdivision (

b) of

Section of

Article XVI of the California Constitution in the 2011–12 fiscal year and each subsequent fiscal year, both of the following apply:

(1) For purposes of paragraph (1) of subdivision (

C) the After School Education and Safety Program in

Article 22.5 (commencing with

b) of

Section of

Article XVI of the California Constitution.
