If such audited financial statements are not available by the time the Annual Report is required to be filed, the Annual Report shall contain any unaudited financial statements of the District in a format similar to the audited financial statements, and the audited financial statements shall be filed in the same matter as the Annual Report when they become available.

Average Daily Attendance (Section 4(b)(i) The total average daily attendance (A.D.A.) and annual revenue limits for the fiscal year, in substantially the format displayed in Appendix A to the Official Statement in Table 1 and Table 2 under the caption "State Funding of Education. " The fiscal year actual A.D.A. and annual revenue limit per A.D.A. for the District are shown below: Table 1 A.D.A. and Annual Revenue Limit Per A.D.A. A.D.A. LCFF State Aide Per A.D.A.

6 The table below describes the average daily attendance from fiscal year to fiscal year In the 10 fiscal years shown, attendance has increased from 14,150 to 16,810, representing an average yearly increase of 266 students. Table 2 Average Daily Attendance Fiscal Year Source: The District. A.D.A. 14,150 14,519 15,155 15,780 15,807 15,870 15,962 16,126 16,641 16,810 Increase Prior to fiscal year , California school districts operated under general purpose revenue limits established by the California Department of Education. Revenue limits generally were calculated for each school district by multiplying the A.D.A. for such district by a base revenue limit per unit of A.D.A. Revenue limit calculations were subject to adjustment in accordance with a number of factors designed to provide cost of living adjustments ("COLAs") and to equalize revenues among school districts ofthe same type. Funding of a school district's revenue limit was provided by a mix of local property taxes and State apportionments of basic and equalization aid. Assembly Bill 97, enacted as part of the fiscal year State budget and amended and clarified by Senate Bill 91 (as amended, "AB 97"), established a new system for funding school districts, charter schools, and county offices of education in California effective in fiscal year The primary component of AB 97 is the implementation of the Local Control Funding Formula ("LCFF"), which replaces the revenue limit funding system for determining State apportionments, as well as the majority of categorical program funding. State allocations will be provided on the basis of target base funding grants per unit of A.D.A. (a "Base Grant") assigned to each of four grade spans. Each Base Grant is subject to certain adjustments and add-ons, including COLAs. Full implementation of the LCFF is expected to occur over a period of eight fiscal years, concluding in fiscal year Beginning in fiscal year , an annual transition adjustment will be calculated for each school district, equal to such district's proportionate share of appropriations included in the State budget to close the gap between the prior-year funding level and the target allocation following full implementation of the LCFF. In each year, school districts will have the same proportion of their respective funding gaps closed, with dollar amounts varying depending on the size of a district's funding gap. For fiscal year , the Base Grants per unit of A.D.A. for each grade span are as follows: (i) $7,011 for grades K-3 ; (ii) $7,116 for grades 4-6; (iii) $7,328 for grades 7-8; and (iv) $8,491 for grades In each subsequent year, the Base Grants are to be adjusted for cost-of-living increases by applying the implicit price deflator for government goods and services. Following full implementation of the LCFF, the provision of COLAs will be subject to appropriation for 4

7 such adjustment in the annual State budget. The differences among Base Grants are linked to differentials in statewide average revenue limit rates by district type, and are intended to recognize the generally higher costs of education at higher grade levels. The Base Grants for grades K-3 and 9-12 are subject to adjustments of 10.4% and 2.6%, respectively, to cover the costs of class size reduction in early grades and the provision of career technical education in high schools. Following full implementation of the LCFF, and unless otherwise collectively bargained for, school districts serving students in grades K-3 must maintain an average class enrollment of 24 or fewer students in grades K-3 at each school site in order to continue receiving the adjustment to the K-3 Base Grant. Such school districts must also make progress towards this class size reduction goal in proportion to the growth in their funding over the implementation period. Additional add-ons are also provided to school districts that received categorical block grant funding pursuant to the Targeted Instructional Improvement and Home-to-School Transportation programs during fiscal year School districts that serve students of limited English proficiency ("EL" students), students from low income families that are eligible for free or reduced priced meals ("LI" students) and foster youth are eligible to receive additional funding grants. Enrollment counts are unduplicated, such that students may not be counted as both EL and LI. Foster youth automatically meet the eligibility requirements for free or reduced priced meals. A supplemental grant add-on (each, a "Supplemental Grant") is authorized for school districts that serve ELILI students, equal to 20% of the applicable Base Grant multiplied by such districts' percentage of unduplicated ELILI student enrollment. School districts whose ELILI populations exceed 55% of their total enrollment are eligible for a concentration grant add-on (each, a "Concentration Grant") equal to 50% of the applicable Base Grant multiplied the percentage of such district's unduplicated ELILI student enrollment in excess of the 55% threshold.
