Approximately 30 p ercent of teachers participate in plans for which the district pays between 80 p ercent and 99 p ercent of the premium. The remaining 20 p ercent of teachers participate in plans where the district pays a smaller share. Typically, the district provides retiree health benefits if the employee has 1 w orked in the district for a minimum number of years typically 10 t o 1 5 a nd 2 r eached a minimum age typically Districts generally provide health benefits until the retiree reaches age 65 and qualifies for Medicare.
A few districts, however, provide lifetime health benefits. As a result, some districts have very large unfunded retiree health liabilities. Charter schools rarely provide retiree health benefits unless they have a close relationship with their authorizing school districts.
The state expects districts to keep a minimum level of local reserves. The minimum local reserve level varies based on district size. The state also for the first time set a maximum local reserve level. Local reserves are capped the year after the balance in the state Proposition 98 r eserve equals at least 3 p ercent of total annual Proposition 98 school funding. When this threshold is met, medium and large school districts those with 2, o r more students are limited to having local reserves that amount to no more than 10 p ercent of their annual expenditures.
About 60 p ercent of districts fall into the first or second of these exemption categories. To date, the cap has not been operative.
Overall Attendance Has Been Declining. Student attendance grew at an average annual rate of 2. Total births in the state fell from , i n t o , i n t o , i n Another factor that has driven declines is migration patterns.
Our projections have student attendance declining throughout the coming decade Figure 1. Our projections assume that birth rates in California remain at historically low levels. Attendance Trends Vary Among Counties. The overall trend in student attendance masks significant regional variation. In some parts of the state, student attendance has been decreasing notably.
In other parts of the state, student attendance has been growing notably. The most pronounced growth in numerical terms has been in Kern County, which had about 15, m ore students 8.
Under our projections, most counties that have been declining in recent years would experience even greater declines in the future, and many counties that have been growing would begin to experience small declines Figure 2.
Orange and Santa Clara Counties likewise experience large declines—dropping 66, students 14 p ercent and 34, students 13 p ercent , respectively. In contrast to their recent growth trends, Kern and San Joaquin Counties also begin experiencing declines, though at much slower rates than other counties.
Demographic projections extending a decade into the future are subject to a relatively high level of uncertainty. Under alternative assumptions, such as those the Department of Finance makes for its projections, enrollment does not decline as quickly and a higher share of counties experience growth.
Whereas the districts that had the greatest declines were located in urban areas mostly in and around Los Angeles, the districts with the largest growth were spread across several areas of the state. The counts shown in Figure 3 e xclude all charter school attendance, even for the charter schools that receive funding directly from their authorizing district.
We discuss charter attendance below. Overall Change in Student Attendance. Despite the overall growth in charter attendance, 10 p ercent of districts saw a decline in charter school attendance, and 65 p ercent of districts still do not have a single charter school located within their boundaries. School districts are not only affected by overall student attendance but by the share of students identified for special education.
Over the past ten years, the share of students statewide identified for special education services has increased from 11 p ercent to 13 p ercent.
Much of this increase is attributable to the growing prevalence of autism, a disability that typically requires districts to provide intensive support, often with aides and specialists. Many medical experts expect autism rates to continue increasing, thereby placing continued cost pressure on schools. The range is large for the incidence of students with mild disabilities and the incidence of students with severe disabilities.
Whereas the incidence of students with relatively mild disabilities such as stuttering and dyslexia ranges across SELPAs from 4 p ercent to 15 p ercent, the incidence of students with relatively severe disabilities such as having multiple disabilities, including autism ranges from less than 0.
The levels of school support staff, which include teacher aides, counselors, psychologists, social workers, nurses, office staff, and custodians, is at a historic high. This increase includes about 19, m ore teacher aides, 7, m ore office staff, 2, m ore counselors, and 1, m ore psychologists. Some of the increase in support staff likely is due to adding back staff positions eliminated during the Great Recession.
Some of the increase also is likely a response to a growing share of students with disabilities. Districts tend to hire additional teacher aides and specialists to support these students. Given the recent growth trend in special education, this staffing cost pressure is likely to remain, at least over the next few years.
In addition to hiring more teachers, most districts have been increasing staff salaries. The smallest districts, especially those with fewer than 12 t eachers, were prone to the largest fluctuations. Changes in larger districts during this time were more moderate but still notable. Despite these variations in recent salary trends among districts, we expect most, if not all, districts to face pressure moving forward to increase teacher and other staff salaries because housing and other personal costs of living in California are likely to remain relatively high.
Two decades ago, the cost of health benefits was one of the biggest cost pressures facing districts. Districts Face Retiree Health Liabilities. Though the majority of this liability is attributable to approximately a dozen large school districts, nearly all districts that offer retiree health benefits have at least some unfunded liability. This amount is likely to grow more quickly than inflation moving forward as districts pay the obligations associated with their unfunded liability.
The few districts that have prefunded their retiree health benefits, by contrast, are expected to face smaller cost increases moving forward. As with retiree health liabilities, unfunded pension liabilities occur when assets on hand are less than the estimated cost of benefits earned to date. Over the same period, district contributions to CalPERS also have increased to address unfunded liabilities.
Looking beyond the budget year, district contribution rates to CalSTRS are scheduled under current law to level off. District contributions to CalPERS, however, are likely to continue increasing at a steady pace for the next several years—likely in the range of a few hundred million dollars per year. Before the start of each fiscal year, districts are required to submit their locally developed budget plans to their respective COEs for review.
COEs are tasked with approving, conditionally approving, or disapproving these budgets. In making their determinations, COEs consider ten core indicators of district fiscal health, including reserve levels and changes in salary and benefit costs. For each of these budget updates, COEs assign a positive, qualified, or negative certification. A positive rating indicates a district will meet its financial obligations in the current year and subsequent two years. A qualified rating indicates a district might not meet its obligations over this period, whereas a negative rating indicates a district will be unable to meet its obligations in the current year or following year.
Districts with qualified and negative budget ratings are subject to escalating COE oversight and intervention. If a district ultimately is unable to pay its bills, its local school board may request an emergency state loan. If the Legislature and Governor decide to approve the request, the loan is authorized through a state appropriations bill. Upon receiving a state loan, the local governing board loses its authority and an administrator is appointed to run the district.
T he applicable county superintendent of schools, with the concurrence of the state Superintendent of Public Instruction and the president of the State Board of Education, appoints the administrator.
The administrator typically cedes power back to the district gradually over several years after the local board has demonstrated good management in five specified areas including financial management and facilities management. The vast majority of districts in California have positive budget ratings. An additional 27 r eceived qualified ratings. Consistent with subdivision e of Section , awards issued pursuant to this subdivision may be used for living expenses, institutional fees, charges, and other costs, including tuition and training-related costs, such as special clothing, local transportation, and required tools, equipment, supplies, technology, and books.

The level of funding shall be adjusted to include a basic allocation based on the number of colleges and comprehensive centers in the district consistent with the basic allocation rates used in the —18 fiscal year.
The level of funding for the San Francisco Community College District and the Compton Community College District shall be adjusted to include a basic allocation based on the number of colleges and comprehensive centers in the district consistent with the basic allocation rates used in the —18 fiscal year multiplied by the —19 fiscal year cost-of-living adjustment, and adjusted for changes in the cost-of-living in subsequent annual budget acts.
The intent of these adjustments is to provide the San Francisco Community College District and the Compton Community College District with the greater of the amount that would have been calculated pursuant to the requirements of Section B For purposes of computing the FTES attributable to this paragraph and subdivision d , for seven fiscal years beginning in the —18 fiscal year, the San Francisco Community College District shall be entitled to restoration of any reduction in apportionment revenue due to decreases in FTES, up to the level of attendance of FTES funded in the —13 fiscal year, if there is a subsequent increase in FTES.
C i For purposes of computing the FTES attributable to this paragraph and subdivision d , for seven fiscal years beginning in the fiscal year the Compton Community College District is accredited under the governing authority of the Board of Trustees of the Compton Community College District, the board of governors shall provide allocations to the Compton Community College District in an amount not less than the total amount that the district would receive if the level of attendance of FTES was the same level of attendance as in the —18 fiscal year.
The amount shall be adjusted to reflect cost-of-living adjustments, deficits in apportionments, or both, as appropriate for the applicable fiscal years. Any revisions to the budget formula made for the purposes of this subdivision shall be made and reported consistent with the requirements of subdivision i.

The funds apportioned to a community college district pursuant to this section, and for excess tax districts, the Student Equity and Achievement Program, shall be available to implement the activities required pursuant to this paragraph. C The board of governors shall include instructions in the audit report required by Section related to the implementation of the funding formula pursuant to this section.
B The requirement for submitting a report imposed under subparagraph A is inoperative on July 1, , pursuant to Section Public and private sources have funded more low-cost programs for dog and cat spaying and neutering. Animal shelters have sought to modernize their facilities and practices to keep animals healthier during their time at the shelter. Public education campaigns have promoted the importance of adopting pets, and a growing number of private rescue groups have been formed, increasing the degree to which they assist shelters in finding new homes for animals.
The shelter medicine program at the University of California, Davis promotes a welfare-centric, life-saving approach to the management of animals in shelters, focused on prevention and grounded in science.
The program has been working with shelters across California since its inception, providing advice covering facility design, shelter management, animal husbandry, and myriad veterinary health issues that are unique to sheltering environments. Best practices may include, but is not limited to, all of the following: A Reducing intake by providing other solutions to keep animals safe and healthy in their homes, which may include spay or neuter as part of that approach, as well as vaccination, microchipping, and setting up technology and communication to help pet owners rehome their own pets instead of taking them to a shelter.
B Improving animal health and care in the shelter, which may include adequate housing, good ventilation, appropriate treatment and isolation facilities as well as good husbandry practices to help animals stay healthy, lower costs, and increase adoptions. C Removing barriers to live outcomes, which may include technology, staffing and capacity solutions, and expanding spay or neuter capacity to keep up with outflow. This may also include systems to reunite lost pets and developing an adoption presence in the community.
All funds shall be awarded on the basis of need as determined by an open, competitive process that ensures objectivity, fairness, and sustainability. All California city, county, or city and county animal control agencies or shelters, societies for the prevention of cruelty to animals, and humane societies shall have access and opportunity to voluntarily compete for the funds. The program shall do all of the following: A Develop criteria, procedures, and accountability measures as may be necessary to implement the grant program.
C In developing criteria, procedures, and accountability measures, include a focus on preventing pet overpopulation, such as measures to offer no or low cost spay or neuter services.
At a minimum, the report shall include all of the following information: A The amount spent on each type of activity set forth in paragraphs 1 to 3 , inclusive, of subdivision a. B Pursuant to paragraph 1 of subdivision a , a summary of the outreach activities that were supported by funds. C Pursuant to paragraph 2 of subdivision a , a list of shelters that received in-person assessments and in-depth training. The analysis shall include annual data on the number of animals that were euthanized at least five years preceding the establishment of the program and throughout the duration of the program.
To the extent possible, the analysis shall use the best available data to estimate the number of treatable and adoptable animals that are euthanized in the state. The University of California, Davis Koret Shelter Medicine program may require any data from program participants as needed to complete this analysis. G Financial information on the University of California, Davis Koret Shelter Medicine program, including funding by source, spending by program and function, and end-of-year fund balances.
The report shall include this information for the —19 through —24 fiscal years. At a minimum, the report shall include all of the information described in paragraph 1. It is further the intent of the Legislature that appropriations for this purpose specify both of the following: 1 The target reduction in nonresident undergraduate enrollment for these campuses to be achieved with the appropriated funds.
Senior nutrition. Funding for housing for foster youth. Emergency Child Care Bridge program. Child Welfare public health nursing early intervention. Foster Family Agency rate increase.
