In California, if your school is considering LEA membership, for special education purposes, in a new SELPA, it is the interpretation of the CDE that you must submit a “year and a day notice” to your current SELPA (the LAUSD SELPA, which you belong to now as a “school of the District”) by June 30th of the year preceding the year you wish to join a new SELPA. This means that in order to join a new SELPA for the 2017-2018 school year you need to alert the CDE and LAUSD’s SELPA by June 30, 2016
