2011 Round-Up of Notable Education Bills

Below find links to three lists of noteworthy legislation that was passed by the California Legislature this year or made into two-year bills. Bills are sorted into three categories: Bills Signed by the Governor, Bills Vetoed by the Governor, and Two-Year Bills. A two-year bill is a piece of legislation that was introduced this year that the Legislature has decided to take two years to consider.
