Virtual or online charter schools: average daily attendance.

Existing law requires community school and independent study average daily attendance to be claimed by school districts, county superintendents of schools, and charter schools only for pupils who are residents of the county in which the apportionment claim is reported or pupils who are residents of a county immediately adjacent to the county in which the apportionment claim is reported. Existing law authorizes virtual or online charter schools to also claim independent study average daily attendance for pupils enrolled in the school that move to a residence located outside of the geographical boundaries of the virtual or online charter school, as specified. This bill would authorize virtual or online charter schools to also claim independent study average daily attendance for pupils who are residents of a county that is 125 miles or less from the county in which the apportionment claim is reported.
