Proposition 2- New Supplemental Grants for Transitional Kindergarten Under Modernization Funding In July 2021, Assembly Bill 130 expanded the existing Full-Day Kindergarten Facilities Grant Program (FDK Program) to include preschool and transitional kindergarten. The last apportionments for those funds were approved in June 2024.
A new opportunity for districts seeking funding for transitional kindergarten facilities was approved through AB 247 (Muratsuchi, Chapter 81, Statutes of 2024). On November 5, a majority of California’s voters approved Proposition 2, which implements the provisions of AB 247 (Muratsuchi, Chapter 81, Statutes of 2024). Among the provisions of Proposition 2, EC Section 17073.
16 has been added and establishes three new supplemental grants for School Facility Program (SFP) Modernization funding applications. One of these provides funding for the retrofit of existing school facilities or new construction of a transitional kindergarten classroom(s) for school districts receiving an apportionment for modernization funding.
The passage of Proposition 2 necessitates modifications to the SFP Regulations to allow school districts to submit funding applications that allow for the inclusion of transitional kindergarten supplemental grants, as referenced in the amended Education Code. Please contact the Office of Public School Construction (OPSC) regarding this new supplemental grant.
