Commencing July 1, 1993, the Superintendent of Public Instruction shall determine an authorized limit of adult education average daily attendance for all high school districts and unified school districts that operated and claimed adult education state apportionment for the 1992–93 fiscal year, as follows:
(a) For the 1993–94 fiscal year, the district’s authorized adult education average daily attendance shall be one of the following:
(1) The district’s adult education average daily attendance added to the district’s average daily attendance for concurrently enrolled high school pupils in adult education programs that was certified for the annual principal apportionment report and for which state apportionment for the 1991–92 fiscal year was received.
(2) If the district’s average daily attendance for concurrently enrolled high school pupils in adult education used in paragraph (1) exceeds 10 percent of the district’s total average daily attendance for all pupils in grades 9 to 12, inclusive, for the same reporting period, the district’s authorized adult education average daily attendance pursuant to paragraph (1) shall be reduced by multiplying the amount of certified average daily attendance for concurrently enrolled high school pupils in adult education that exceeds 10 percent by 0.33 and subtracting that amount from the district’s authorized adult education average daily attendance pursuant to paragraph (1).
(3) For a school district offering adult education courses and classes pursuant to Section 41976.2, add to the amount calculated pursuant to paragraphs (1) or (2) the number of units of average daily attendance claimed by that district for the second principal apportionment made in the 1991–92 fiscal year for independent study pupils 21 years of age or older and pupils 19 years of age or older who have not been continuously enrolled in kindergarten or any of the grades 1 to 12, inclusive, since their 18th birthday, as calculated pursuant to Section 46300.1, as that section read on January 1, 1992.
(b) For the 1994–95 fiscal year, the district’s authorized adult education average daily attendance shall be one of the following:
(1) The district’s adult education average daily attendance added to the district’s average daily attendance for concurrently enrolled high school pupils in adult education programs that was certified for the annual principal apportionment report and for which state apportionment for the 1991–92 fiscal year was received.
(2) If the district’s average daily attendance for concurrently enrolled high school pupils in adult education used in paragraph (1) exceeds 10 percent of the district’s total average daily attendance for all pupils in grades 9 to 12, inclusive, for the same reporting period, the district’s authorized adult education average daily attendance pursuant to paragraph (1) shall be reduced by multiplying the amount of certified average daily attendance for concurrently enrolled high school pupils in adult education that exceeds 10 percent by 0.67 and subtracting that amount from the district’s authorized adult education average daily attendance pursuant to paragraph (1).
(3) For a school district offering adult education courses and classes pursuant to Section 41976.2, add to the amount calculated pursuant to paragraphs (1) or (2) the number of units of average daily attendance claimed by that district for the second principal apportionment made in the 1991–92 fiscal year for independent study pupils 21 years of age or older and pupils 19 years of age or older who have not been continuously enrolled in kindergarten or any of the grades 1 to 12, inclusive, since their 18th birthday, as calculated pursuant to Section 46300.1, as that section read on January 1, 1992.
(c) For the 1995–96 fiscal year, the district’s authorized adult education average day attendance shall be one of the following:
(1) The district’s adult education average daily attendance added to the district’s average daily attendance for concurrently enrolled high school pupils in adult education programs that was certified for the annual principal apportionment report and for which the state apportionment for the 1991–92 fiscal year was received.
(2) If the district’s average daily attendance for concurrently enrolled high school pupils in adult education used in paragraph (1) exceeds 10 percent of the district’s total average daily attendance for all pupils in grades 9 to 12, inclusive, for the same reporting period, the district’s authorized adult education average daily attendance pursuant to paragraph (1) shall be reduced by multiplying the amount of certified average daily attendance for concurrently enrolled high school pupils in adult education that exceeds 10 percent by 1.00 and subtracting that amount from the district’s authorized adult education average daily attendance pursuant to paragraph (1).
(3) For a school district offering adult education courses and classes pursuant to Section 41976.2, add to the amount calculated pursuant to paragraph (1) or (2), whichever is applicable, the number of units of average daily attendance claimed by the district for the second principal apportionment for the 1991–92 fiscal year for independent study pupils 21 years of age and older and pupils 19 years of age or older who have not been continuously enrolled in kindergarten, or any of grades 1 to 12, inclusive, since their 18th birthday, as calculated pursuant to Section 46300.1, as that section read on January 1, 1992.
(d) For the 1996–97 fiscal year, and each fiscal year thereafter, a school district’s adult education average daily attendance for apportionment purposes shall be its authorized adult education average daily attendance for the prior fiscal year multiplied by 1.025.
(e) Commencing July 1, 1996, a school district shall not certify for apportionment purposes, that portion of any average daily attendance in adult education programs generated by pupils who are concurrently enrolled for apportionment purposes in high school that exceeds 10 percent of the district’s average daily attendance for all pupils in grades 9 to 12, inclusive, for the same reporting period.
(f) It is the intent of the Legislature that, commencing July 1, 1993, each school district that conducted programs in the 1991–92 fiscal year through independent study for pupils 21 years of age or older and pupils 19 years of age or older who have not been continuously enrolled in kindergarten or any of grades 1 to 12, inclusive, since their 18th birthday, as calculated pursuant to Section 46300.1, as that section read on January 1, 1992, continue to serve at least the same number of units of average daily attendance through adult education for high school diploma programs in all subsequent years as were funded through those independent study programs in the 1991–92 fiscal year, unless the school district governing board determines that meeting this service requirement would incur costs in excess of the revenue received.
