BACKGROUND:

Education Code 60119 requires the Governing Board to conduct an annual public hearing within the first eight weeks of school and make a determination, through a resolution, that every pupil, including English learners, in the District have sufficient textbooks or instructional materials in specified subjects that are aligned to the academic content standards and consistent with the content and cycles of the curriculum framework adopted by the State Board of Education in History/social science, Mathematics, English/language arts, and Science.

The needs of students in each curricular area were assessed by the teachers in the spring and replacement materials for the district adopted texts were ordered. In the fall, the schools conducted a survey of “sufficiency” of instructional materials for each student and additional materials were ordered as needed.

All materials other than Board adopted are considered supplementary and vary by school.

As stated in Education Code 35186:

(a) A school District shall use the uniform complaint process it has adopted as required by Chapter 5.1 (commencing with Section 4600) of Title 5 of the California Code of Regulations, with modifications, as necessary, to help identify and resolve any deficiencies related to instructional materials, emergency or urgent facilities conditions that pose a threat to the health and safety of pupils or staff, and teacher vacancy or misassignment.

Campbell Union School District reports that there were no complaints filed with any school in the district during the April 1 through June 30, 2017 quarter.

As per Education Code Section 35120(c), “A member may be paid for any meeting when absent if the Board by Resolution duly adopted and included in its minutes finds that at the time of the meeting he or she is performing services outside the meeting for the school district or districts, he or she was ill or on jury duty, or the absence was due to a hardship deemed acceptable by the Board.”  

Section 80026 of the Title 5 Regulations that governs emergency permits and /or limited assignment permits requires school districts to submit a Declaration of Need for fully Qualified Educators on an annual basis. This is a prerequisite for school districts to have in order for the Commission on Teacher Credentialing to issue any permits. The purpose of the form is to indicate the types of permits the school district anticipates may be needed if fully qualified educators are not available.

Attached is the Declaration of Need for Fully Qulified Educators.

Meetings may be scheduled, rescheduled and/or cancelled as required to conduct District business.
