INFORMATION |
Supplemental item 41 is being added to the agenda for the California State Board of Education meeting scheduled for May 10-11, 2006, to comply with federal requirements for submission by June 1, 2006, of an additional rigorous secondary school program option that will allow California students to establish eligibility for Academic Competitiveness Grants. The invitation to submit an additional option was contained in a letter dated May 2, 2006, sent by U.S. Secretary of Education Margaret Spellings. Receipt of the letter occurred too late to allow a notice 10 days before the scheduled meeting.
