Latest Text Digest

Existing law, the Leroy F. Greene School Facilities Act of 1998 (the Greene Act), requires the State Allocation Board to allocate to applicant school districts and charter schools prescribed state funding for construction and modernization of school facilities, including hardship funding and supplemental funding for site development and acquisition. Existing law prohibits any construction of a school building before the project has received the written approval of the Division of the State Architect.

This bill, on and after July 1, 2027, would require all new construction projects submitted to the Division of the State Architect pursuant to the Greene Act to include a dedicated space to be used as a school wellness center that is required to be used to provide health support and resource referrals for pupils and staff.
