School districts: local authority.
Summary
Existing law authorizes the governing board of a school district to initiate and carry on any program, activity, or to act in any manner that is not in conflict with or inconsistent with, or preempted by, any law and that is not in conflict with the purposes for which school districts are established. This bill would make nonsubstantive changes to that provision.

MINOR
No substantive policy changes between these two versions. The difference is purely presentational: the first version is a clean legislative document format, while the second is a web page rendering of the same bill from the California legislature website, complete with navigation menus, search boxes, and site UI elements. The operative text of Section 35160 is identical in both.
TECHNICAL
The bill text was re-rendered from a traditional legislative document format (with line numbers and page breaks) to a web page layout that includes navigation menus, search fields, and website interface elements. No changes to the actual statutory language.
