AB 417: County boards of education: pupil members.

Existing law authorizes governing boards of county boards of education to appoint one or more high school pupils enrolled in a school that is under the jurisdiction of the county board of education as members in response to a petition from high school pupils of the county board requesting the governing board to appoint one or more pupil members. Existing law authorizes a pupil who is enrolled in a high school that is under the jurisdiction of a school district, and who may be less than 18 years of age, to be selected to serve as a pupil member of the county board of education, if no petition is submitted to select a pupil who is enrolled in a high school that is under the jurisdiction of the county board of education.

This bill would additionally authorize a pupil who is enrolled in a high school that is under the jurisdiction of the county board of education, and who may be less than 18 years of age, to be selected to serve as a pupil member of the county board of education, if no petition is submitted to select a pupil who is enrolled in a high school that is under the jurisdiction of the county board of education.

This bill would incorporate additional changes to Section 1000 of the Education Code proposed by AB 275 to be operative only if this bill and AB 275 are enacted and this bill is enacted last.
