Summary: Education Code Section 41422 allows the State Superintendent of Public Instruction (SSPI) to grant normal apportionment credit to districts or charter schools in emergencies in instances when one or more schools must be closed because of "extraordinary conditions." School districts or charter schools may submit form J13A, Request for Allowance of Attendance Because of Emergency Conditions, to the California Department of Education (CDE) to receive ADA credit and instructional time credit for the day(s) and minutes lost to the emergency closure.

Funding: No fiscal impact - Upon approval from the California Department of Education, the Charter would remain revenue neutral.
