Required by Law
The Health and Safety Code Section 104450 requires all county offices of education, school districts, and direct-funded charter schools that receive Tobacco-Use Prevention Education (TUPE) funding to complete an annual report of their activities and expenditures relating to the TUPE program. The No Child Left Behind Act also requires information to be submitted about Title IV Safe and Drug-Free Schools and Communities (SDFSC) programs. The Safe and Healthy Kids Annual Report is designed to report information related to these programs and other services that address alcohol, tobacco, other drugs, and violence. The release of SDFSC and TUPE entitlement funds is contingent on the receipt of this report. Four health education questions have also been included to reduce duplicate reporting procedures.
Due Date
The report is due to the California Department of Education by June 30 of each year.
