§ 37616 Continuous School Program Consultation

Prior to implementing a continuous school program in any school of the district, the school district governing board shall consult in good faith in an effort to reach agreement with the certificated and classified employees of the school, with the parents of pupils who would be affected by the change, and with the community at large. Such consultation shall include at least one public hearing for which the board has given adequate notice to the employees and to the parents of pupils affected. In school districts where a continuous school program is implemented in fewer than all of the schools maintained by the school district, the governing board of such a school district shall make every reasonable effort to assign certificated employees who prefer the regular school schedule to schools of the same level retaining the regular school schedule. (Enacted by Stats. 1976, Ch. 1010.)
