Subject: Correction Regarding Effective Date of SB 200 – Student Residency Legislation
Memo No. Addendum to 19-2015 New Student Residency Legislation – SB 200, AB 1166, AB 1101
The purpose of this Memorandum is to clarify that Senate Bill (“SB”) 200 will become effective as of January 1, 2016 – not July 1, 2017. We apologize for any confusion.
As a reminder, SB 200 provides that a student will have complied with the residency requirements for a school district if the student’s parent (or legal guardian) resides outside the boundaries of the school district but the parent is employed and lives with the student at the parent’s place of employment within the boundaries of the school district for a minimum of three days during the school week.[1] This bill was intended to address the concerns of caregivers, nannies, and other such workers who are required to stay overnight at their place of employment.
