School Facilities <br />
During the past ten years, California’s school-age population grew by more than one<br />
million students, an increase of 20 percent. To provide schools for <strong>this</strong> increased<br />
number of students and modernize older schools, districts have funded school facilities<br />
through a combination of several sources, including state bonds, local bonds, special<br />
taxes (Mello-Roos and parcel taxes), developer fees, and the federal Qualified Zone<br />
Academy Bond Program (QZAB).<br />
