Bill > AB842

This bill provides $21,500,000 in state funding to the Paradise Unified School District specifically to complete the construction of schools damaged by the 2018 Camp Fire, which devastated the city of Paradise, California. The bill acknowledges the unique circumstances faced by the school district in recovering from this catastrophic event and declares that a special statute is necessary due to the extraordinary impact of the fire. Additionally, the bill includes a provision related to the state's history-social science curriculum framework, requiring the Instructional Quality Commission to consider including age-appropriate information about estate planning and trusts when revising the curriculum framework after January 1, 2026. This addition to the curriculum is part of a broader effort to incorporate financial literacy education into California's K-12 educational standards, building on existing requirements to include topics such as banking, budgeting, credit, investing, and consumer protection.
