Educ. Code §48432 .3) . The intent of the law is to ensure fair and equitable access to continuation school opportunities that provide an alternative path to obtaining a standardsbased high school diploma. This document was initially developed by the California Advisory Task Force on Alternative Schools and provides an overview of the applicable law and model procedures for compliance.  \nPOLICY OVERVIEW  \nDistrict Responsibility  \nThe applicable law makes clear that responsibility for establishing procedures and ensuring their equitable application falls to districts, their designees , and their governing boards. The policy seeks to ensure common practices across schools within districts. As well, the policy signals that procedures should support the development of alternative opportunities for youth to meet ambitious state and district learning and achievement goals.  \nEquity  \nDistricts are required to develop procedures that guard against disproportionality in placement that is the result of unlawful discrimination or bias. In particular, the law directs attention todisproportionality in the enrollment of students with special needs, foster youth, or based on racial, ethnic, or language minority group status. There are additional safeguard provisions for students with special education, foster, and homeless status (Cal. Educ. Code §§48450 – 48452.7) . In general, district leaders must assure that such vulnerable students are placed in the least restrictive educational programs and have equitable access to the academic resources, services, and extracurricular and enrichment activities that are available to all students including, but not limited to, interscholastic sports.  \nBest Interests of the Student  \nStudents cannot be voluntarily placed in a continuation school unless both the district and their parent or legal guardian mutually agree that such a placement is in the students’ best educational interest. Voluntary transfers, for example, cannot be encouraged or offered in lieu of an expulsion. Transfers are also directed to be at intervals (i.e. , at the beginning of a semester or grade-marking period) that will not disrupt the learning environment for youth in alternative settings.  \nParental Involvement  \nSchool officials involved in the transfer process, including district, sending school , and receiving school personnel, have an affirmative duty to engage parents or legal guardians in the decisionmaking process , provide them with information necessary to understand the options available , and determine if the continuation school is the best option for the students.  \nTransparency  \nDistrict policies and procedures for approving voluntary transfers to continuation schools must bein writing and must articulate clear criteria for decision making, be consistently applied, and made available to parents, students, and other stakeholders.  \nRight of Return  \nStudents who voluntarily transfer to a continuation school have the right to return to their traditional high schools at the beginning of the following school year and can return sooner at the discretion of the administrator designated by the superintendent to approve of mid-year returns.  \nApplicable Law:  \nText of California Education Code §48432 .3 (2017)  \n(a) If the governing board of a school district chooses to voluntarily enroll high school pupils in a continuation school, the governing board of the school district shall establish and adopt policies and procedur","cbCaisd7qhyOCjLQ","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaisd7qhyOCjLQ","pdf",229579,"English","# Policy Overview\n## District Responsibility\n## Equity\n## Best Interests of the Student\n## Parental Involvement\n## Transparency\n## Right of Return\n# Applicable Law\n## Text of California Education Code §48432.3 (2017)","[{\"question\":\"What is the goal of the MoDEL procedures for continuation high school transfers?\",\"answer\":\"They provide clear and consistent identification, placement, and intake policies so students can access continuation school opportunities fairly and equitably while supporting standards-based high school diploma pathways.\"},{\"question\":\"What equity safeguards are required for voluntary placement?\",\"answer\":\"District procedures must guard against disproportionality caused by unlawful discrimination or bias, including protections related to special needs, foster youth, and racial, ethnic, or language minority status.\"},{\"question\":\"When can a student return from a voluntary transfer to a continuation high school?\",\"answer\":\"Students have the right to return to their traditional high schools at the beginning of the following school year, and they may return sooner with discretion from an administrator designated by the superintendent.\"}]","MoDEL Procedures for the Identification, Voluntary Placement, and Induction of Students into Continuation High Schools in California - January 2023 | PDF",1792053183]
