Existing law requires the Superintendent of Public Instruction to determine, for each current fiscal year, for each school district in the state, the total number of administrative employees except as provided, the total number of teachers except those serving in positions that are supported by federal funds or by categorical grants from any source and are in programs that require specific teacher/administrator ratios, the total maximum number of administrative employees that should be employed by the school district based upon the application of the appropriate ratio prescribed by law, and the number of administrative employees in excess of the number allowable without penalty, as provided. Existing law, for purposes of determining the allowable ratio of administrative employees to teachers for the San Diego City School District, excludes from the numbers identified pursuant to the above provisions the number of employees and the full-time equivalent of all of the fractional time of employees serving the school district in positions mandated as the result of the school district's court-ordered integration plan.	us/states/ca	California Legislature	20212022	AB 2038	California AB 2038 (20212022)	bill	School finance: administrative employees to teacher ratio.	enacted	Gipson	6	21	6	2022-02-14	2022-09-30	openstates	ocd-bill/7aff11f4-13f1-4369-aea8-cedc74685b56	http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202120220AB2038	81f6c8e1bfd895bf815ee0b9e4b70e7b4637c93b4953a9321d243d5eab1e12cf	2026-07-01	https://data.openstates.org/daily/2026-07-01/public.pgdump	2026-07-06	reported	legislation bill us-ca
