Filed with Secretary of State September 11, 2020. ] LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGESTAB 1859, Santiago. School district employees: merit system: appointments.Existing law requires, with certain exceptions, vacancies in the classified service of a school district that has adopted the merit system to be filled by appointments made from the eligible applicants having the first 3 ranks on the eligibility list who are ready and willing to accept the position. In a school district with a pupil population over 400,000, existing law authorizes, until December 31, 2020, an appointment to specified classifications of positions to be made from other than the first 3 ranks on the eligibility list if one or more of specified criteria are required for successful job performance of the position to be filled, in which case existing law requires the appointment to be made from among the highest 3 ranks of eligible candidates on the list who meet the special requirements and are ready and willing to accept the position. Existing law requires a school district that makes an appointment pursuant to this provision to study the effectiveness of the selection method, the vacancy rates for each class, and the length of time to hire for each class, and to submit a report of its findings to any affected labor union.This bill would extend the operation of the latter provisions from December 31, 2020, until January 1, 2027, and apply those provisions to the Los Angeles Unified School District instead of a school district with a pupil population over 400,000.This bill would make legislative findings and declarations as to the necessity of a special statute for the Los Angeles Unified School District.Digest Key Vote: MAJORITY Appropriation: NO Fiscal Committee: NO Local Program: NO Bill TextThe people of the State of California do enact as follows:SECTION 1.
