California State Board of Education Agenda
The California State Board of Education is considering requests from four local educational agencies (LEAs) to waive the requirement for a minimum of 20 school days for extended school year (ESY) programs for students with disabilities. Each LEA proposes an alternate schedule with fewer days but a comparable number of instructional hours. The CDE recommends approval with conditions, ensuring school day hours are consistent with general education and that special education services are comparable in standards, scope, and quality to the regular academic year. The LEAs include Tuolumne County Superintendent of Schools, Greenfield Union School District, Red Bluff Union Elementary School District, and El Monte City School District.
