Pupil instruction: dual enrollment: College and Career Access Pathways partnerships.Existing law authorizes the governing board of a community college district to enter into a College and Career Access Pathways (CCAP) partnership with the governing board of a school district, a county office of education, or the governing body of a charter school for the purpose of offering or expanding dual enrollment opportunities for pupils who may not already be college bound or who are underrepresented in higher education, as provided.This bill would instead authorize the governing board of a community college district to enter into a CCAP partnership with the governing board of a school district, a county office of education, or the governing body of a charter school for the purpose of offering or expanding dual enrollment opportunities for all pupils, and would require that enrollment in, and pupil outreach for, CCAP partnerships be prioritized for pupils who may not already be college bound or who are underrepresented in higher education.Existing law prohibits a community college district from providing physical education course opportunities to high school pupils pursuant to a CCAP partnership.This bill instead would authorize a community college district participating in a CCAP partnership to offer physical education courses if the courses meet certain requirements.Existing law prohibits a community college district from entering into a CCAP partnership with a school district, county office of education, or charter school within the service area of another community college district except where an agreement exists, or is established, between those community college districts authorizing that CCAP partnership.This bill would instead authorize a community college district to enter into a CCAP partnership with the governing board of a school district, a county office of education, or the governing body of a charter school within the service area of another community college district under specified conditions, including if the governing board of the primary community college district has denied in writing a request to establish a CCAP partnership.This bill would require, commencing with the 203031 academic year, a CCAP partnership agreement to certify that a pupil shall receive credit for any community college courses that the pupil completes if the course is part of a memorandum of understanding between the governing board of the school district, a county office of education, or the governing body of a charter school and a community college district and the course meets specified requirements, as provided. The bill would require that a CCAP partnership agreement contain a requirement for courses to be offered if an agreed upon minimum number of high school students are enrolled in a given academic year.Existing law authorizes a community college district to allow a special part-time student participating in a CCAP partnership agreement to enroll in up to a maximum of 15 units per term in courses offered at the community college campus or the participating high school campus if certain circumstances are satisfied, including that the units constitute no more than 4 community college courses per term.This bill would eliminate the 4 community college courses per term limit for a special part-time student enrolling in up to 15 units under a CCAP partnership agreement.Existing law requires, for each CCAP partnership agreement, the affected community college district and school district, county office of education, or charter school to annually report specified information to the office of the Chancellor of the California Community Colleges, including the total number of community college courses, by course category and type and by schoolsite, enrolled in by CCAP partnership participants.This bill would instead require the affected community college district and school district, county office of education, or charter school to annually report the total number of high school pupils who successfully completed 12 or more units of college coursework by graduation, completed a certificate, or completed the courses required for an associate degree or an associate degree for transfer.This bill would additionally revise or eliminate several requirements related to CCAP partnership agreements, including, among other things, (1) eliminating a requirement to consult with, and consider the input of, the appropriate local workforce development board for career technical education pathways provided under a partnership, and (2) eliminating a requirement that a CCAP partnership agreement certify that any pretransfer-level course taught by a community college faculty at a partnering high school campus is offered only to high school pupils who do not meet their grade level standard in mathematics, English, or both.This bill would require, to the extent these provisions conflict with any provision of a CCAP partnership agreement entered into by a community college district and the governing board of a school district, charter school, or county office of education on or before January 1, 2025, those agreements to be amended to comply with the bills requirements by the start of the 203031 academic year.Digest Key Vote: MAJORITY Appropriation: NO Fiscal Committee: YES Local Program: NO Bill TextThe people of the State of California do enact as follows:SECTION 1. The Legislature finds and declares all of the following: (a) Dual enrollment is an equity-based solution to increasing a college-attending culture for pupils across the state.(b) Data has demonstrated dual enrollment programs increase postsecondary degree attainment, therefore increasing dual enrollment opportunities will help achieve the Governors goal of 70 percent postsecondary degree and certificate attainment among working-aged Californians by 2030.(c) According to the Public Policy Institute of California, pupils who participate in a college and career access pathway complete gateway transfer-level mathematics and English courses at a higher rate than pupils who did not participate in dual enrollment programs.(d) In 2022, the Governor issued a roadmap with terms and conditions that the community colleges must comply with through the 202627 fiscal year.
