TheRevenuelimitsandmostcategoricalprogramswhichhaveexistedsincethe1970’sSerranovs.Priestdecisionwere eliminated. Instead, the State implemented theLocal Control FundingFormula (LCFF). UnderLCFF,insteadoftheStateallocatingfundsandrequiringtheDistrictstospendmoneyonprogramsandservicetheStatedeterminesareapriority,thenewfundingformulagiveslocalboardscontroloverhowtousefundsandresources in a way that improves outcomes and opportunities for all students. The new funding modelspecificallyaddressesstudentswithgreaterneeds–suchasEnglishlearners,low‐incomeandfosteryouth–withinputfromthecommunityandwithspecificstudentoutcomeinmind.School district leaders have conjectured that LCFF presents an historic opportunity to focus on improvingstudentoutcomes,closingachievementgaps,andincreasingthelevelofcommunicationbetweenschoolsandtheircommunities.

Onamodifiedaccrualbasis, revenue is recorded in the fiscal year in which the resources are measurable and becomeavailable. Available means that the resources will be collected within the current fiscal year.Generally, available is defined as collectiblewithin 60days. However, to achieve comparability ofreportingamongCaliforniadistrictsandsoasnot todistortnormalrevenuepatterns,withspecificrespect to reimbursement grants and corrections to state‐aid apportionments, the CaliforniaDepartment of Education has defined available for districts as collectible within one year. Thefollowing revenue sources are considered to be bothmeasurable and available at fiscal year‐end:Stateapportionments,interest,certaingrants,andotherlocalsources.

4. UnearnedRevenue

Unearned revenue arises when potential revenue does not meet both the "measurable" and"available" criteria for recognition in the current period or when resources are received by theDistrict prior to the incurrence of qualifying expenditures. In subsequent periods, when bothrevenue recognition criteria are met, or when the District has a legal claim to the resources, theliability for unearned revenue is removed from the combined balance sheet and revenue isrecognized.Certaingrantsreceivedthathavenotmeteligibilityrequirementsarerecordedasunearnedrevenue.On the governmental fund financial statements, receivables that will not be collected within theavailableperiodarealsorecordedasunearnedrevenue.

7. PensionsFor purposes of measuring the net pension liability and deferred outflows/inflows of resourcesrelated to pensions, and pension expense, information about the fiduciary net position of theDistrict's California State Teachers Retirement System (CalSTRS) and California Public Employees'RetirementSystem(CalPERS)plansandadditionto/deductionsfromthePlans'fiduciarynetpositionhave been determined on the same basis as they are reported by CalSTRS and CalPERS.

9. NetPositionNet position is classified into three components: net investment in capital assets; restricted; andunrestricted.Theseclassificationsaredefinedasfollows: Net investment in capitalassets ‐ This component of net position consists of capital assets,

including restricted capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation and reduced by theoutstandingbalancesofanybonds,mortgages,notes,orotherborrowingsthatareattributabletothe acquisition, construction, or improvement of those assets.

F. MinimumFundBalancePolicy

Duringthe2010‐11fiscalyear,pursuanttoGASBStatementNo.54,theDistrictadoptedaminimumfundbalance policy for the General Fund in order to protect the District against revenue shortfalls orunpredicted expenditures. The policy requires a Reserve for Economic Uncertainties consisting ofunassigned amounts equal to no less than threepercent of total General Fund expenditures andotherfinancinguses.Whenanexpenditureisincurredforpurposesforwhichbothrestrictedandunrestrictedfundbalanceisavailable, the District considers restricted funds to have been spent first. When an expenditure isincurredforwhichcommitted,assigned,orunassignedfundbalancesareavailable,theDistrictconsidersamounts to have been spent first out of committed funds, then assigned funds, and finally unassignedfunds, asneededunless thegoverningboardhasprovidedotherwise in its commitmentorassignmentactions.

G. PropertyTaxCalendar

The County is responsible for the assessment, collection, and apportionment of property taxes for alljurisdictions including the schools and special districts within the County.

StatementNo.27(Issued06/12)TheprimaryobjectiveofthisStatementistoimproveaccountingandfinancialreportingbystateandlocal governments for pensions. It also improves information provided by state and localgovernmentalemployersaboutfinancialsupportforpensionsthatisprovidedbyotherentities.ThisStatement results from a comprehensive review of the effectiveness of existing standards ofaccountingandfinancialreportingforpensionswithregardtoprovidingdecision‐usefulinformation,supporting assessments of accountability and interperiod equity, and creating additionaltransparency.ThisStatementreplacestherequirementsofStatementNo.27,AccountingforPensionsbyStateandLocalGovernmentalEmployers,aswellastherequirementsofStatementNo.50,PensionDisclosures,as they relate to pensions that are provided through pension plans administered as trusts orequivalentarrangements(hereafterjointlyreferredtoastrusts)thatmeetcertaincriteria.ThisStatementestablishesstandardsformeasuringandrecognizingliabilities,deferredoutflowsofresources, and deferred inflows of resources, and expense/expenditures. For defined benefitpensions, this Statement identifies the methods and assumptions that should be used to projectbenefitpayments,discountprojectedbenefitpaymentstotheiractuarialpresentvalue,andattributethatpresentvaluetoperiodsofemployeeservice.Cost‐SharingEmployersInfinancialstatementspreparedusingtheeconomicresourcesmeasurementfocusandaccrualbasisofaccounting,acost‐sharingemployerthatdoesnothaveaspecial fundingsituation isrequiredtorecognize a liability for its proportionate share of the net pension liability (of all employers forbenefits provided through the pension plan)—the collective net pension liability. An employer’sproportion is required to be determined on a basis that is consistent with the manner in whichcontributions to the pension plan are determined, and consideration should be given to separaterates, if any, related to separate portions of the collective net pension liability. The use of theemployer’s projected long‐term contribution effort as compared to the total projected long‐termcontribution effort of all employers as the basis for determining an employer’s proportion isencouraged.

A cost‐sharingemployer is required to recognizepensionexpenseandreportdeferredoutflowsofresources and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions for its proportionate shares ofcollective pension expense and collective deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows ofresourcesrelatedtopensions.
