Existing law describes the California Interscholastic Federation as a voluntary organization that consists of school and school-related personnel with responsibility for administering interscholastic athletic activities in secondary schools, and sets forth the Legislature's intent regarding the California Interscholastic Federation's implementation of certain policies. Existing law required the California Interscholastic Federation, on or before January 1, 2016, to report to the Legislature and the Governor on its evaluation and accountability activities undertaken pursuant to specified provisions. Existing law repeals those provisions on January 1, 2017. This bill would delete the repeal date, and would require the California Interscholastic Federation, on or before January 1, 2023, and on or before January 1 every 7 years thereafter, to report to the appropriate policy committees of the Legislature and the Governor on its evaluation and accountability activities undertaken pursuant to specified provisions. The bill would require the appropriate policy committees of the Legislature, upon receiving a report, to hold a joint hearing at which the California Interscholastic Federation would be required, and members of the public would be encouraged, to testify on information in the report.
Sponsored bills

This bill would require the governing board of a school district and the governing board of a community college district to obtain reasonable and informed projections of assessed property valuations that take into consideration projections of assessed property valuations made by the county assessor.
