Pupil attendance: service on precinct board.
Summary
Existing law authorizes a pupil to be excused from school for specified reasons, including for the purpose of serving as a member of a precinct board for an election. Existing law provides that excused absence for those specified reasons are, nevertheless, absences for the purpose of computing average daily attendance and do not generate state apportionment payments. Existing law also requires that the attendance of pupils participating in independent study for 5 or more consecutive days, as specified, be included in computing the average daily attendance of the school district. This bill would specify that, for the purpose of computing average daily attendance for pupils in independent study, a pupil serving as a member of a precinct board for an election shall not be required to participate in that activity for 5 or more consecutive days if specified requirements are met, and would specify that an absence for those reasons shall not be considered an absence for purposes of generating state apportionment payments. This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as an urgency statute.
