Summary:
|
On October, 2012, the California Legislature passed AB 1575, a law that seeks to: (1) eliminate stigmatizing students and families who are unable to pay for certain school outings; and (2) establish a procedure for families to complain about the imposition of mandatory student fees. Pursuant to AB 1575, which went into effect on January 1, 2013, the District must revise its uniform complaint procedure to allow families to demand the investigation of claims that the District is imposing mandatory educational fees. CSBA issued its updated model policy on this item on approximately February 12, 2013. The District’s proposed policy is based on CSBA’s model.
Staff respectfully requests that the Board waive its normal procedure of two readings of proposed board policies as set forth in Administrative Regulation 9311 because AB 1575 mandates that the new complaint procedure be adopted by March 1, 2013. in order the give the public additional time to review the policy in advance of this meeting, the proposed changes to the BP 1312.3 and AR 1312.3 have been posted on the District’s website since February 14, 2013.
