An act to amend Sections 10601, 10601.5, 10802, 10804, and 60900
of the Education Code, relating to education data.

LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST

SB 19, Simitian. Education data.

(1) Existing law establishes the California Education Information
System, which consists of the California Longitudinal Pupil
Achievement Data System (CALPADS) and the California Longitudinal
Teacher Integrated Data Education System (CALTIDES). Existing law
requires that data elements and codes included in the California
Education Information System be maintained in compliance with
specified provisions of law.

This bill would additionally require that data elements and codes
included in the California Education Information System be maintained
in compliance with any other applicable federal or state law that
can be interpreted as protecting the privacy and confidentiality of
individual pupils or certificated personnel.

(2) Existing law prohibits data in CALTIDES from being used either
solely or in conjunction with data from CALPADS for purposes of pay,
promotion, sanction, or personnel evaluation of an individual
teacher or groups of teachers, or any other employment decisions
related to individual teachers.

This bill would delete this prohibition. The bill would prohibit
data in CALTIDES from being used in violation of any federal or state
law that is intended to protect an individual's right to privacy or
the confidentiality of an individual's personal information.

(3) Existing law requires the State Chief Information Officer to
convene a working group representing specified entities to create a
strategic plan to link education data systems and to accomplish
specified objectives relating to the accessibility of education data.
The State Chief Information Officer is required to deliver this
strategic plan to the Legislature and the Governor no later than
September 1, 2009.

This bill would require the plan to identify specific procedures
and policies that would facilitate the sharing and transfer of data,
and would change the date the plan is required to be delivered to the
Legislature and the Governor to January 1, 2010. The bill
additionally would authorize these provisions to be implemented using
federal grant funds received pursuant to the American Recovery and
Reinvestment Act of 2009 through that act's provision of funds for
statewide data systems under the federal Education Technical
Assistance Act.

(4) Existing law requires the State Department of Education under
CALPADS to contract for the development of proposals that will
provide for the retention and analysis of longitudinal pupil
achievement data. Existing law requires local educational agencies to
retain individual pupil records for each test taker, including other
data elements deemed necessary by the Superintendent, with approval
of the State Board of Education, to comply with federal reporting
requirements delineated in the federal No Child Left Behind Act of
2001.

This bill would, prior to the implementation of these provisions
with respect to adding data elements to CALPADS for the purpose of
complying with the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009,
require the department to submit an expenditure plan to the
Department of Finance, as specified. The bill would require the
Department of Finance to provide to the Joint Legislative Budget
Committee a copy of the plan within 10 days of receipt.

The bill also would make technical and clarifying changes.
