For purposes of this subdivision, “late entry makeup class” is a class in which a pupil in a program of year-round scheduling is enrolled in order to compensate for the pupil’s late enrollment in that program.

(c) This subdivision shall only apply to school districts with an average daily attendance of 100,001 or more pupils that have installed an individual pupil tracking system and maintain schools on both the traditional calendar and on year-round calendars.

For the 1993–94 fiscal year as recertified at the time of the first principal apportionment in February of 1995 and for the 1994–95 fiscal year, in no event may any transferring pupil generate more than 0.98 unit of average daily attendance for the district in any one school year under this subdivision. In no event shall this subdivision be construed to authorize any nontransferring pupil to generate more than one unit of average daily attendance for any school year.

37682. (a) As a condition of operating a Concept 6 program at a school in the 2004–05 school year or thereafter, a district shall, by January 1, 2005, present to the department a comprehensive action plan detailing the strategy and steps to be taken annually to eliminate the use of the Concept 6 program as soon as practicable, and no later than July 1, 2012. Except as provided in subdivision (b), the action plan shall include all of the following:
(1) An analysis of the factors relating to the district’s current and projected operation of the Concept 6 program including, but not limited to, demographic forecasts, space use and needs, class sizes, programmatic constraints, facility construction status, the amount of funding needed to create additional classroom space, and the proposed sources of that funding.
(2) A detailed description of the multiple phases of planning and construction, including site identification, site acquisition, construction commencement and completion date, and occupancy dates of projects designed to eliminate use of the Concept 6 program, including a reasonable projection of the number of additional pupil seats to be provided through each of the multiple phases of planning and construction.
(3) Reasonable, districtwide numerical goals against which annual progress toward eliminating the use of the Concept 6 program can be measured, including a projection of the number of pupils, if any, the district estimates will remain on a Concept 6 program on July 1 of each year through 2012.
(b) If a district projects that it will eliminate the Concept 6 program on or before July 1, 2008, the district shall not be required to include in its comprehensive action plan the information contained in paragraphs (2) and (3) of subdivision (a) but, instead, shall include a narrative explanation of the manner in which it will accomplish its goal to eliminate the Concept 6 program and shall project the date that each school in the district will eliminate the program.
(c) A district may not transport pupils to another school more than 40 minutes away from the school of residence, other than as required pursuant to a desegregation plan, as a means to eliminate the Concept 6 program.

37683. (a) The Superintendent of Public Instruction shall evaluate a comprehensive action plan submitted by a district and shall make recommendations to the state board for approval or disapproval of the plan. The evaluation shall be based on the reasonableness and practicability of the district in eliminating the Concept 6 program by the earliest practicable date and no later than July 1, 2012. The evaluation shall include an analysis of whether adequate sources of funding have been identified for the projects necessary to eliminate the program. In considering whether a district has identified adequate sources of funding, the superintendent shall consult with the Office of Public School Construction.
(b) If the state board disapproves a comprehensive action plan, it shall specify the reasons for the disapproval and require the district to submit a revised plan, within a time specified by the state board, to address the state board’s concerns.

37684. (a) A district operating a Concept 6 program shall report each January to the Superintendent of Public Instruction, who shall report to the state board, on progress made in reaching the annual numerical goals established in its comprehensive action plan. If a district fails to meet an annual numerical goal, the district shall identify the specific cause of the failure and amend its comprehensive action plan to indicate the specific steps that it will take to remedy that failure so that it will meet its deadline to eliminate the Concept 6 program as stated in its comprehensive action plan.
(b) If the district’s progress toward meeting its numerical goals has or is projected to change materially, the district shall file a supplemental, mid-year report with the Superintendent of Public Instruction. The report shall describe the nature and cause of the material change and indicate the specific steps that the district will take, and the state technical assistance needed, if any, to address the change. The superintendent shall evaluate the supplemental, mid-year report and make recommendations to the state board for approval or disapproval. The evaluation shall be based on the reasonableness and practicability of the district to reach its annual goals and eliminate the Concept 6 program by the earliest practicable date, and no later than July 1, 2012. If the state board disapproves a report, it shall specify the reasons for disapproval and require the district to submit a revised report, within a timeframe specified by the state board, to address the concerns raised by the state board.

37686. (a) If a district fails to meet its annual numerical goals for any two consecutive years between 2005 and 2012, the district shall be prohibited from all the following until the district achieves substantial progress toward meeting its annual numerical goals:
(1) Approving any new construction or new portable classroom other than a project directly designed to eliminate the use of the Concept 6 program or to reduce reliance on capacity-related busing that transports pupils more than 40 minutes to or from school.
(2) To the extent permitted by law, designating revenues from developer fees for any purpose not directly related to eliminating the Concept 6 program or reducing reliance on capacity-related busing.
(3) Approving the issuance of a Certificate of Participation for any school facilities-related purpose not directly related to the elimination of the Concept 6 program or reducing reliance on capacity-related busing.

37688. (a) If on or after July 31, 2008, and any succeeding year in which a district operates a Concept 6 program, the state board finds that a district has failed to make substantial progress in eliminating the Concept 6 program, or if on or after July 31, 2009, and any succeeding year in which a district operates a Concept 6 program, the state board finds that a district has failed to develop a specific school building plan, the state board shall hold a public hearing to determine the cause of the failure and the remedies to be undertaken by the state board to ensure elimination of the Concept 6 program by the earliest practicable date and no later than July 1, 2012.
(b) Prior to the public hearing, the Superintendent of Public Instruction and the State Allocation Board shall each provide a written analysis and opinion to the state board as to the cause of the failure and the remedies proposed to be undertaken. The State Allocation Board shall render its opinion based upon a written analysis prepared by the Office of Public School Construction. The district may submit its own analysis as to the cause of the failure and remedies it proposes to be undertaken.

The remedial plan may also recommend action for state financial assistance necessary to enable the district to eliminate the Concept 6 program by the earliest date practicable and no later than July 1, 2012.
(2) If the state board determines that the failure of the district to achieve substantial progress or develop a specific school building plan is not due to circumstances beyond the control of the district, but due to its failure to act diligently to plan for the elimination of the Concept 6 program or to execute its comprehensive action plan, the remedial plan shall mandate at least quarterly review and oversight of the district by the department. The remedial plan may also include any of the measures described in paragraph (1) or other measures as the state board deems necessary to enable the district to eliminate the Concept 6 program by the earliest date practicable and no later than July 1, 2012.

37689. (a) In addition to Section 37688, on or after July 31, 2009, if the state board determines that the failure of a district to achieve substantial progress or develop a specific school building plan is not due to circumstances beyond the control of the district, but due to its failure to act diligently to plan for the elimination of the Concept 6 program or to execute its comprehensive action plan, the board shall hold a public hearing to determine whether the state board should implement direct oversight of the district’s facilities construction program.
(b) If the state board determines that direct oversight is necessary, the state board shall implement the oversight within 90 days of that determination.
(1) Direct oversight by the state board shall consist of assigning a monitor to the district who shall report to the state board at each of its regularly scheduled meetings on progress made by the district in working toward the elimination of the Concept 6 program. The monitor shall have relevant experience in engineering, construction, or management of major public works projects and shall have the resources and authority to contract with appropriate professionals in the fields of program management, project management, and finance. In selecting a monitor, the state board shall receive nominees from, and consult with, the superintendent of the district, the Office of Public School Construction, and the citizens’ oversight committee of the district, established under Section 15278.
(2) The monitor shall make recommendations to the district with respect to the planning and implementation of its school construction program. The district shall follow the recommendations of the monitor unless the district shows, to the satisfaction of the state board, good cause for not doing so. The district shall notify the state board if it disputes a recommendation and the state board shall hold a public hearing to hear and decide the dispute within 30 days of receiving the notice.
(3) The district and the citizens’ oversight committee shall have an opportunity to appear at the public hearing and provide written or oral testimony to support their positions.
(4) A recommendation of the monitor that is mandatory, as opposed to prohibitory, shall be stayed during the time the dispute is before the state board.
(5) Upon the conclusion of the public hearing, the state board shall direct the district to implement the recommendations of the monitor if it finds, in consultation with the Office of Public School Construction, that the district lacks good cause for failing to implement the recommendations.
