This law establishes the State Board of Education in California, which has 10 members. These members are appointed by the Governor, but the appointments must be approved by at least two-thirds of the Senate.

This law gives the California Governor the power to appoint a high school student as a member of the state education board for a one-year term, with the approval of two-thirds of the Senate. The student must be in good standing in their senior year of high school and is chosen based on recommendations. The student has the same voting rights as other board members. The selection process involves notifying schools, screening applications, and narrowing down to finalists for the Governor's consideration.

Board members serve for four years, and they remain in their role until new members are appointed and ready. For those already in office when this rule started, their terms ended between January 15, 1960, and January 15, 1963, on a staggered schedule, ensuring continuity.

If there's an empty position, the Governor will appoint someone to fill it, but this choice must be approved by two-thirds of the Senate. This person will only serve for the remaining time of the original term that was left empty.

This section explains that the board has the authority to manage how it operates and is set up. This includes choosing its leaders and creating any groups or committees it needs to function.

This law says that the Superintendent is responsible for handling the paperwork and communications for the state education board. They also need to keep records of everything the board does.

This law says that if the Superintendent of Public Instruction is not in the state or cannot do their job for some reason, the board will appoint someone to temporarily take over their responsibilities as the executive officer of the board.

This law allows board members to be reimbursed for travel expenses when they are on official business. They also receive a daily allowance as per another government code. If a board member works for a public school and a substitute teacher needs to be hired while the member is doing board work, the board can pay back the school for the substitute's cost using its own funds.

The board is required to hold meetings at least six times a year, with meetings occurring at least once every three months.

This rule says that special meetings can be arranged by the president, and if four members request it in writing, the secretary must make it happen.

Before a board meeting, the secretary must send a notice by registered mail to every board member at least 10 days in advance. However, if all board members agree in writing, they can skip this notice.

This law says that if the board puts information about a meeting agenda on its website, it has to show the same details that it provides to its board members. However, the board doesn't have to give out any extra information that it wouldn't already share with the public during an open meeting.

This law mandates that the state board broadcasts all public meetings and hearings live, using technology accessible to most people. These broadcasts can include cable, satellite, over-the-air TV, or webcasts. Additionally, the law requires that webcast transmissions be available through the K-12 High-Speed Network. The board must also work with the State Chief Information Officer to ensure proper implementation.

This rule means that for any decision or action taken by the board to be considered valid, at least six members must agree on it.

This law allows a board to add a nonvoting student member to any board, commission, or similar group it appoints. The student can attend meetings, share opinions, and will be reimbursed for necessary expenses. However, they can only serve for one year, starting August 1, and each student can only hold the position once. The process for choosing student members is set by the board's bylaws.
