EDC § 44258.9 Effective Jun 27, 2025Div. 3 · Title 2 · Part 25 · Ch. 2 · Art. 4

Statute text

(a)(1) The Legislature finds and declares both of the following:

(A)That continued monitoring of educator assignments by the commission and the county superintendents of schools and continued reporting of educator assignments by the department will help ensure that local educational agencies meet state and federal reporting requirements, including the requirements of the federal Every Student Succeeds Act (Public Law 114-95), or any other federal law that effectively replaces that act, and will ensure that the rate of educator misassignments remains low.

(B)That local educational agencies, state officials, pupils, and guardians have a vested interest in knowing and understanding the capacity of local educational agencies to fill all available and funded teaching assignments with educators who are fully credentialed for the subjects and pupils they are teaching, and a vested interest in understanding the scope of the teacher shortage across the TK/K–12 educational system, including, but not limited to, those instances where vacancies cannot be filled, resulting in the use of substitutes, increases in class size, or cancellation of courses or classes.
