Government Code·California

AI SummaryVerified

Key Takeaways

•If a school area moves to a different county, the old county must share the latest student count with the new county.
•The old county must also give any money owed to the schools in that area to the new county.
•This makes sure schools get the right money and info after a change.

Example

A small town's schools switch from County A to County B because the town lines changed.

County A must send County B the latest list of students in those schools and any money that belongs to them. This way, County B knows how many kids to plan for and has the money to run the schools.
