Program Description: The purpose of this grant competition is to establish a National Assessment Center to improve children with disabilities’ participation in and performance on State and districtwide assessments. This award is funded under the Technical Assistance and Dissemination to Improve Services and Results for Children with Disabilities program. The goal of this program is to promote academic achievement and to improve results for children with disabilities by providing technical assistance (TA), supporting model demonstration projects, disseminating useful information, and implementing activities supported by scientifically based research.

This award aligns to requirements in the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). Specifically, section 612(a)(16) requires that all children with disabilities are included with appropriate accommodations in general State and districtwide assessments as indicated in their individualized education programs, including assessments described under section 1111 of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) and alternate assessments. Many States have also adopted kindergarten entry assessments to assess multiple developmental domains and support early learning. Additionally, Section 663(b)(2) of IDEA requires that the Secretary use funds to support activities to improve the participation of children with disabilities in State assessments.


ALN: 84.326G.

South Monterey County School Districts Reorganization and UnificationThe proposed reorganization unifies Greenfield Union Elementary School District and Greenfield High School into a new Greenfield Unified School District, and combines King City Elementary School District, King City High School, Pinnacle Coastal Valley High School, and Portola-Butler Continuation High School into a new King City Unified School District. This change dissolves the existing South Monterey County Joint Union High School District, which currently oversees the high schools. The reorganization does not alter physical infrastructure or student enrollment and maintains all current educational programs and services. The move is intended to streamline administrative structure, enhance educational quality, ensure fiscal responsibility, and provide equitable access to resources by aligning district boundaries with community needs. The beneficiaries of this reorganization are students within the affected areas and local taxpayers, who are expected to benefit from more cohesive governance and potentially improved resource allocation. The initiative aligns with statewide goals for school district unification in California, which prioritize academic excellence, efficient use of funding, and responsiveness to demographic and community shifts. The California Department of Education is overseeing the process, with primary contacts including an Education Administrator and a Chief Business Official. No physical changes or enrollment impacts are anticipated, and the unified districts will continue operating within existing frameworks while enhancing administrative coordination and long-term planning capacity.

Adoption of Developer Fee IncreaseThe Twin Rivers Unified School District is preparing to implement an increase in developer fees effective August 2026, as part of a strategic adjustment to align infrastructure funding with growing educational demands. This action is tied to the district’s long-term facilities planning and is intended to ensure adequate resources for new construction, renovations, and capital improvements necessary to support student enrollment growth and modernization efforts within Sacramento, California. The fee increase will apply to developers contributing to new residential or commercial projects that generate additional student enrollment requiring new or expanded school facilities. The contract forecast, posted on July 8, 2026, outlines the district’s intent to adopt this change and is being managed by the Facilities Planning and Construction teams led by Kristi Hawks and Victoria Garcia. All communications and inquiries should be directed to the provided contact information, which includes both email and phone details. Although no solicitation number or NAICS code is listed, the action is focused on regulatory and financial adjustments rather than a competitive procurement. The place of performance is clearly identified as Sacramento with a zip code of 95660, underscoring the localized impact of the fee structure change on development activity within the district’s boundaries.

Adoption of Level I Level II Developer FeesThe Clovis Unified School District is implementing Level II developer fees to generate funding for the construction and reconstruction of school facilities within its boundaries, as authorized under Education Code 17620 and Government Code 65995.5 and 65995.6. These fees are levied against new construction projects to ensure that growth contributes to the necessary infrastructure investments required to accommodate increased student enrollment. The policy establishes a structured fee schedule tied to development activity, ensuring equitable financial responsibility from builders and developers while aligning with state mandates for school facility funding. The fees are specifically designated to support capital improvements, enhancing the district’s capacity to provide safe, modern, and adequate learning environments.

The policy was officially posted for public awareness on May 26, 2026, as a forecasted action, indicating its planned implementation in the near future. Although no solicitation number or NAICS code is assigned, the action falls under the broader legal framework governing development fees in California, ensuring compliance with state law regarding fee structure, notice, and use of proceeds. All funds collected are legally restricted to school facility purposes, with transparency and accountability required in their expenditure. The plan underscores the district’s proactive approach to managing growth through responsible fiscal planning and public infrastructure investment.
