37712
. (a) Beginning in the 2013-14 fiscal year, the Moorpark
Unified School District may operate one or more high schools offering
a middle college program in the school district on a four-day school
week, if the school district complies with the instructional time
requirements specified in Section 37701 and the other requirements of
this chapter. The state board may waive the five-consecutive-day
operating requirements for a middle college program that operates on
a four-day school week pursuant to this section, provided that the
school district meets the minimum time requirement for the middle
college program.
(b) If the school district operates one or more schools on a
four-day school week pursuant to this section, and the program for
the school year provides fewer than the 180 days of instruction
required under Section 46200, as it read on January 1, 2013, the
Superintendent shall reduce the local control funding formula grant
apportionment pursuant to Section 42238.02, as implemented pursuant
to Section 42238.03, for the average daily attendance of each
affected grade level, by 0.0056 multiplied by that apportionment for
each day less than what was required in subdivision (a) of this
section, as this section read on January 1, 2013, up to a maximum of
five days. If the school district operates one or more schools on a
four-day school week pursuant to this section, and the program
provides fewer than the minimum instructional minutes required under
Section 46201, as it read on January 1, 2013, the Superintendent
shall reduce the local control funding grant apportionment pursuant
to Section 42238.02, as implemented by Section 42238.03, for the
average daily attendance of each affected grade level, by the amount
of that apportionment multiplied by the percentage of the minimum
required minutes at that grade level that the school district failed
to offer.
(c) Notwithstanding Section 37710, if a small school having
between 11 and 99 valid California Assessment of Student Performance
and Progress test scores operating on a four-day school week fails to
achieve its Academic Performance Index growth target pursuant to
Section 52052 for two consecutive years, the authority of that school
to operate on a four-day school week shall be permanently revoked
commencing with the school year following the second consecutive year
the school failed to achieve its Academic Performance Index growth
rate.
(d) If the school district operates one or more schools on a
four-day school week pursuant to this section, the school district
shall submit a report to the department, the Senate Committee on
Education, and the Assembly Committee on Education on or before
January 15, 2018. The report shall include, but not necessarily be
limited to, information on all of the following:
(1) Programs the school district offered on the fifth schoolday
and their participation rates.
(2) If the four-day school week schedule resulted in fiscal
savings.
(3) Impact on overall attendance of the schools operating a
four-day school week.
(4) Programs for which the state board waived minimum time and
five-consecutive-day requirements and the operational and educational
effects of the programs if they operated at less time than required.
(5) The impact of the four-day school week on crime statistics,
especially on the day on which school would otherwise be in session.
(6) Information on the Academic Performance Index, pursuant to
Section 52052, for every year a school in the school district
operated on a four-day school week. The information shall include,
but not necessarily be limited to, the base and growth Academic
Performance Index of each school that operated on a four-day school
week and whether that school met the Academic Performance Index
growth targets.
(7) Specific outcomes for pupils attending a school operating on a
four-day school week including, but not limited to, attendance
rates, graduation rates, college entrance and attendance rates, and
employment rates of pupils who do not attend college.
(e) The Moorpark Unified School District operating one or more
schools on a four-day school week pursuant to this section may claim
a day of attendance for the pupils enrolled in a school operating on
a four-day school week pursuant to Sections 11300, 11301, and
46146.5.
(f) Notwithstanding subdivisions (a) to (e), inclusive, upon a
determination that the school district identified in subdivision (a)
equals or exceeds its local control funding formula target computed
pursuant to Section 42238.02, as determined by the calculation of a
zero difference pursuant to paragraph (1) of subdivision (b) of
Section 42238.03, the school district, as a condition of
apportionment pursuant to Section 42238.02, as implemented pursuant
to Section 42238.03, shall offer 180 days or more of instruction per
year, and shall meet the minimum minute requirements pursuant to
paragraph (4) of subdivision (a) of Section 46207.
(g) This section shall become inoperative on June 30, 2018, and,
as of January 1, 2019, is repealed, unless a later enacted statute,
that becomes operative on or before January 1, 2019, deletes or
extends the dates on which it becomes inoperative and is repealed.
