LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST

AB 2583, as introduced, Muratsuchi. Education finance: local control funding formula.

Existing law establishes a public school financing system that requires state funding for county superintendents of schools, school districts, and charter schools to be calculated pursuant to a local control funding formula, as specified.

Existing law, commencing with the 2017–18 fiscal year, requires the Superintendent of Public Instruction to add a specified amount to the annual apportionment to each county superintendent of schools as part of the county local control funding formula, as provided, and, commencing with the 2018–19 fiscal year, requires that amount to be adjusted by a specified cost-of-living adjustment. Existing law requires a specified adjustment to revenue limit funding for school districts and charter school block grant funding for charter schools for the 2012–13 fiscal year and prior fiscal years.

This bill would make nonsubstantive changes to these provisions.
