(Education Code 48853.5, 48911, 48915.5, 48918.1)\n\n- As needed, make appropriate referrals to ensure that students in foster care receive necessary special education services and services under Section 504 of the federal Rehabilitation Act of 1973\n\n- As needed, ensure that students in foster care receive appropriate school-based services, such as counseling and health services, supplemental instruction, and after-school services\n\n- Develop protocols and procedures for creating awareness for district staff, including principals, school registrars, and attendance clerks, of the requirements for the proper enrollment, placement, and transfer of foster youth\n\n- Collaborate with the county office of education, county placing agency, county child welfare agency, county probation department, juvenile court, and other appropriate agencies to help coordinate services for the district's foster youth\n\n- Monitor the educational progress of foster youth and provide reports to the Superintendent or designee and the Board of Education based on indicators identified in the district's local control and accountability plan\n\nThe Superintendent or designee shall regularly monitor the caseload of the liaison, as well as his/her additional duties outside of the foster youth program, to determine whether adequate time and resources are available to meet the needs of foster youth in the district.\n\nEnrollment\n\nA student placed in a licensed children's institution or foster family home within the district shall attend programs operated by the district unless one of the following circumstances applies: (Education Code 48853, 48853.5)\n\n- The student has an individualized education program requiring placement in a nonpublic, nonsectarian school or agency or in another local educational agency.\n\n- The parent/guardian or other person holding the right to make educational decisions for the student determines that it is in the best interest of the student to be placed in another education program and submits a written statement to the district indicating that determination and that he/she is aware of the following:\n\n- The student has a right to attend a regular public school in the least restrictive environment.\n\n- The alternate education program is a special education program, if applicable.\n\n- The decision to unilaterally remove the student from the district school and to place him/her in an alternate education program may not be financed by the district.\n\n- Any attempt to seek reimbursement for the alternate education program may be at the expense of the parent/guardian or other person holding the right to make educational decisions for the student.\n\n- At the initial placement or any subsequent change in placement, the student exercises his/her right to continue in his/her school of origin, as defined above.\n\n- The student may continue in the school of origin for the duration of the court's jurisdiction.\n\n- If the court's jurisdiction over a grade K-8 student is terminated prior to the end of a school year, the student may continue in his/her school of origin for the remainder of the school year.\n\n- If the court's jurisdiction is terminated while the student is in high school, the student may continue in his/her school of origin until he/she graduates.\n\n-  If the student is transitioning between school grade levels, he/she shall be allowed to continue in the district of origin in the same attendance area to provide him/her the benefit of matriculating with his/her peers in accordance with the established feeder patterns of school districts. A student who is transitioning to a middle school or high school shall be allowed to enroll in the school designated for matriculation in another school district.\n\nThe district liaison may, in consultation with and with the agreement of the foster youth and the person holding the right to make educational decisions for the youth, recommend that the youth's right to attend the school of origin be waived and he/she be enrolled in any school that students living in the attendance area in which the foster youth resides are eligible to attend. All decisions shall be made in accordance with the foster youth's best interests.  (Education Code 48853.5)\n\nPrior to making any recommendation to move a foster youth from his/her school of origin, the liaison shall provide the youth and the person holding the right to make educational decisions for the youth with a written explanation of the basis for the recommendation and how the recommendation serves the youth's best interests.

(Education Code 48853.5)\n\nTransportation\n\nThe Superintendent or designee shall collaborate with the local child welfare agency to determine how transportation will be provided, arranged, and funded in a cost-effective manner to enable foster youth to remain in their school of origin, for the duration of their time in foster care, when it is in their best interest to do so. Such transportation costs may be paid by either the child welfare agency or the district, or shared by both.  (20 USC 6312)\n\nLEAs shall collaborate with the State or local child welfare agency to designate a point of contact within the LEA if the corresponding child welfare agency notifies the LEA, in writing, that the child welfare agency has designated one of its employees to serve as a point of contact for the LEA.  (20 U.S.C. Section 6312[c][5][A])\n\nAn LEA shall collaborate with the State or local child welfare agency to develop and implement clear written procedures governing how transportation to maintain children in foster care in their school of origin when in their best interest will be provided, arranged, and funded for the duration of the time in foster care. The procedures shall ensure the following:  (20 U.S.C. Section 6312[c][5][B])\n\nChildren in foster care needing transportation to the school of origin will promptly receive transportation in a cost-effective manner and in accordance with subsection 475(4)(A) of the Social Security Act. (42 U.S.C. Section 675[4][A]; 20 U.S.C. Section 6312[c][5][B][i])\n\nIf there are additional costs incurred in providing transportation to maintain children in foster care in their schools of origin, the LEA will provide transportation to the school if any of the following agreements are in place:  (20 U.S.C. Section 6312[c][5][B][ii])\n\n- The local child welfare agency agrees to reimburse the LEA for the cost of such transportation; (20 U.S.C. Section 6312[c][5][B][ii][I])\n\n- The LEA agrees to pay for the cost of such transportation; or (20 U.S.C. Section 6312[c][5][B][ii][II])\n\n- The LEA and the local child welfare agency agree to share the cost of such transportation.  (20 U.S.C. Section 6312[c][5][B][ii][III])\n\nEffect of Absences on Grades\n\nThe grades of a student in foster care shall not be lowered for any absence from school that is due to either of the following circumstances:  (Education Code 49069.5)\n\n- A decision by a court or placement agency to change the student's placement, in which case the student's grades shall be calculated as of the date he/she left school\n\n- A verified court appearance or related court-ordered activity\n\nTransfer of Coursework and Credits\n\nWhen a foster youth transfers into a district school, the district shall accept and issue full credit for any coursework that the foster youth has satisfactorily completed while attending another public school, a juvenile court school, or a nonpublic, nonsectarian school or agency and shall not require the foster youth to retake the course.  (Education Code 51225.2)\n\nIf the foster youth did not complete the entire course, he/she shall be issued partial credit for the coursework completed and shall be required to take the portion of the course that he/she did not complete at his/her previous school.  However, the district may require the foster youth to retake the portion of the course completed if, in consultation with the holder of educational rights for the foster youth, the district finds that the foster youth is reasonably able to complete the requirements in time to graduate from high school. Whenever partial credit is issued to a foster youth in any particular course, he/she shall be enrolled in the same or equivalent course, if applicable, so that he/she may continue and complete the entire course.  (Education Code 51225.2)\n\nPartial credits shall be awarded on the basis of 0.5 credits for every seven class periods attended per subject. If the school is on a block schedule, each block schedule class period attended shall be equal to two regular class periods per subject.  Partial credits and grades earned by a student shall be included on the student's official transcript within two business days of the district's notification of the student's transfer, as required under Education Code 49069.5.\n\nIn no event shall the district prevent a foster youth from taking or retaking a course to meet the eligibility requirements for admission to the California State University or the University of California.  (Education Code 51225.2)\n\nApplicability of Graduation Requirements\n\nTo obtain a high school diploma, a foster youth shall complete all courses required by Education Code 51225.3 and fulfill any additional graduation requirements prescribed by the Board.\n\nHowever, when a foster youth who has completed his/her second year of high school transfers into the district from another school district or transfers between high schools within the district, he/she shall be exempted from all district-adopted coursework and other district-established graduation requirements, unless the district makes a finding that the student is reasonably able to complete the additional requirements in time to graduate from high school by the end of his/her fourth year of high school.  Within 30 calendar days of the foster youth's transfer, the Superintendent or designee shall notify the foster youth, the person holding the right to make educational decisions for him/her, and the foster youth's social worker of the availability of the exemption and whether the foster youth qualifies for it.  If the Superintendent or designee fails to provide this notification, the student shall be eligible for the exemption once notified, even if the notification occurs after the student is no longer a foster youth.  (Education Code 51225.1, 60851)\n\nTo determine whether a foster youth is in his/her third or fourth year of high school, the district shall use either the number of credits the foster youth has earned as of the date of the transfer or the length of his/her school enrollment, whichever qualifies him/her for the exemption.  (Education Code 51225.1)\n\nThe Superintendent or designee shall notify any foster youth who is granted an exemption and the person holding the right to make educational decisions for him/her how any requirements that are waived will affect the foster youth's ability to gain admission to a postsecondary educational institution and shall provide information about transfer opportunities available through the California Community Colleges.  (Education Code 51225.1)\n\nThe district shall not require or request a foster youth to transfer schools in order to qualify for an exemption and no request for a transfer solely to qualify for an exemption shall be made by a foster youth or any person acting on behalf of a foster youth.  (Education Code 51225.1)\n\nIf a foster youth is exempted from local graduation requirements, the exemption shall continue to apply after the termination of the court's jurisdiction over the student while he/she is still enrolled in school or if he/she transfers to another school or school district.  (Education Code 51225.1)\n\nUpon making a finding that a foster youth is reasonably able to complete district graduation requirements within his/her fifth year of high school, the Superintendent or designee shall:  (Education Code 51225.1)\n\n- Inform the foster youth and the person holding the right to make educational decisions for him/her of the foster youth's option to remain in school for a fifth year to complete the district's graduation requirements and how that will affect his/her ability to gain admission to a postsecondary educational institution\n\n- Provide information to the foster youth about transfer opportunities available through the California Community Colleges\n\n- Upon agreement with the foster youth or, if he/she is under 18 years of age, the person holding the right to make educational decisions for him/her, permit the foster youth to stay in school for a fifth year to complete the district's graduation requirements\n\nEligibility for Extracurricular Activities\n\nA foster youth whose residence changes pursuant to a court order or decision of a child welfare worker shall be immediately deemed to meet all residency requirements for participation in interscholastic sports or other extracurricular activities.  (Education Code 48850)\n\nNotification and Complaints\n\nInformation regarding the educational rights of foster youth shall be included in the annual uniform complaint procedures notification distributed to students, parents/guardians, employees, and other interested parties pursuant to 5 CCR 4622.  (Education Code 48853, 48853.5, 49069.5, 51225.1, 51225.2)\n\nAny complaint alleging that the district has not complied with requirements regarding the education of foster youth may be filed in accordance with the district's procedures in AR 1312.3 - Uniform Complaint Procedures. If the district finds merit in a complaint, the district shall provide a remedy to the affected student. A complainant not satisfied with the district's decision may appeal the decision to the California Department of Education (CDE) and shall receive a written decision regarding the appeal within 60 days of CDE's receipt of the appeal. If the CDE finds merit in an appeal, the district shall provide a remedy to the affected student.  (Education Code 48853, 48853.5, 49069.5, 51225.1, 51225.2)",
