School accountability: school climate report.
- Requires schools serving grades 5-12 to create annual climate reports starting in the 2026-27 school year.
- Mandates schools to develop improvement plans when climate deficiencies are identified.
- Requires schools to present climate reports at public board meetings and post them online within 30 days.
Assembly Member Pellerin's school climate accountability measure would require California school districts, county education offices, and charter schools serving grades 5-12 to compile and publicly present annual reports on student engagement and campus environment metrics beginning in the 2026-27 academic year.
The reports must detail pupil engagement and school climate data already collected for local control accountability plans. When deficiencies emerge, schools would need to develop and include specific improvement strategies. The legislation requires governing boards to discuss these reports and improvement plans during regular public meetings, with documents posted to district websites within 30 days.
If the Commission on State Mandates determines the new requirements create additional costs for local educational agencies, the state would reimburse districts according to existing Government Code provisions. The measure aims to standardize how schools compile, present and share information about campus climate and student engagement with their communities.
