School accountability: local control and accountability plans: California Collaborative for Educational Excellence.

Existing law, on or before July 1, 2014, required the governing board of each school district and each county board of education to adopt a local control and accountability plan. Existing law requires the governing board of each school district and each county board of education to update its local control and accountability plan on or before July 1 of each year. Existing law requires the local control and accountability plan to include certain elements, and requires the charter for a charter school to include some of those same elements. Existing law establishes the California Collaborative for Educational Excellence for purposes of advising and assisting school districts, county superintendents of schools, and charter schools in achieving the goals set forth in a local control and accountability plan. Existing law requires the collaborative to be governed by a board consisting of 5 members, as specified. This bill would add a representative of charter schools, appointed by the Governor, and a parent of a California public school pupil, appointed by the Joint Committee on Rules, to the governing board of the collaborative.
