    "plain_language_summary": "California runs one state school for Deaf students on two campuses, in Fremont and in Riverside, and the state Department of Education operates both. The two campuses enrolled 629 students in the 2024-25 school year, while the state counted 10,439 students as Deaf or Hard of Hearing, so most are taught somewhere else. That somewhere else is local: school districts, county offices of education, some charter schools, and regional special education bodies called SELPAs. This file read the website of every one of those 1,885 local bodies. Of them, 181 publish a program or a staff position for Deaf and hard of hearing students, 523 only mention hearing in passing, and 1,143 publish nothing on the subject. What a website says is not what a student receives: a body that publishes nothing may still serve its Deaf students. Published programs sit mostly with regional bodies: 42 of 58 county offices publish one, against 60 of 935 districts. A small district's own website most often says nothing (362 of 514 elementary districts), and in thirteen counties no local body publishes a program at all. California does publish how many Deaf and Hard of Hearing students each local agency has and their kind of classroom, though it hides small numbers, and it posts the yearly report on young Deaf children's language development that state law has required since 2017. No state document tells a family how to choose between the state school, a regional program and a local one. The state funds the state schools through two budget lines, 78.1 million and 50.0 million dollars in 2024-25, which also cover the School for the Blind and three assessment centers. Thirty-seven local bodies could not be read after two tries and await review by a person.",

        "statement": "The frame is every unit that California law makes a local educational agency for special education and that the Department of Education's directory carried as active on the run date, 20 September 2026: 1,885 units. They are 935 school districts (345 unified, 514 elementary, 76 high school), 58 county offices of education, 136 special education local plan areas (SELPAs) on the department's directory, 3 state special schools, 4 State Board of Education units, and 749 charter schools that are their own local educational agency for special education and active in the directory. The basis is Education Code 56026.3, which names a school district, a county office of education, a nonprofit charter school participating as a member of a special education local plan area, and a special education local plan area as a local educational agency; 56195.1, which places the local plan election on district and county boards; and 47641(a), under which a charter school that gives written assurances participates as a local educational agency in an approved plan. The charter list was taken from the District of Special Education Accountability rows of the state's special education file and the active directory. Version 1.0 used funding type as its charter class and sampled the smaller units; version 2.0 is exhaustive and uses 47641 status. County community schools and juvenile court schools are read as part of the county office's row. The roster is read on the run date; the enrollment on each row is the unit's certified 2024-25 figure. Thirty-nine units with rows in the state's 2025-26 files were closed in the directory on the run date and are listed in the trail, not audited. No unit is NOT AUDITED. Thirty-seven units are NOT VERIFIABLE after two attempts (LOG-001 D-040) and are marked for deep review.",

    "method_limitations": "Method as applied. The roster was built from the department's directory files by CDS code on 20 September 2026. Every frame unit was first read by a delegated fetch agent (1,885 units in 207 chunks, five to eight fetches a unit), and the compiler then re-read in a rendered browser every PROGRAM row, every SELPA and county office not coded PROGRAM, every retrieval failure, every district of 4,000 pupils or more coded MENTION or NONE FOUND, and every unit the first pass could not read; 411 rows rest on the browser and 1,474 on the delegated pass. The entity directory. The Schools and Programs sheet holds sixteen entities: the state schools and state-level bodies, two regional day schools, one district program and the four private programs. The local programs that version 1.0 listed there (it carried 65 entities) are carried on the District Coverage sheet, where every unit now has a row with its delivery mechanism, its operator, its evidence and its captures. This adapts the entity directory of STD-002 to an exhaustive frame and is stated here as that specification requires. Known limitations. (1) A first-pass NONE FOUND is reliable on a small site and less so on a large one: every recode in the browser came from a page the agent's fetches did not reach, and districts under 4,000 pupils coded MENTION or NONE FOUND were not re-read. One such miss was found at the build by comparing version 1.0's PROGRAM codes with this version's: Centralia Elementary (3,995 pupils), which publishes a described program with three named teachers of the deaf; the fleet could not read its site and the compiler's probe then read three pages, none of them a special education page, and coded NONE FOUND. It is corrected. Seventy-four closure rows coded MENTION or NONE FOUND rest on a read that reached no special education page, and they are the first re-run target, ahead of the small first-pass rows. The same comparison over the SELPA rows, matched by name, corrected three more at the build (Solano County SELPA, whose program sits in a memorandum linked as a PDF that the browser probe does not open; San Mateo County SELPA and its county office, whose described service the first pass did not reach; Greater Anaheim SELPA, on a board agenda), and it leaves fourteen units that version 1.0 coded MENTION and this version codes NONE FOUND as the second re-run target. (2) A quoted string in a first-pass row is as the agent returned it, except that a long dash in an agent's return was written as a hyphen when the rows were collected, so a hyphen inside a first-pass quotation may stand for the source's dash; the row says that the string is the agent's. In closure rows 197 quotations were confirmed against a held capture and 10 were not found in one. (3) 398 PROGRAM and MENTION rows carry no two-file capture, because the first pass read them by fetch; their codes cannot be checked against a held page. (4) Thirty-seven units are NOT VERIFIABLE after two attempts and await deep review; they enroll 29,505 pupils on the certified 2024-25 enrollment column (two have no enrollment row), of whom 17,612 are in ABC Unified. (5) The SELPA addresses did not come from the state directory, whose SELPA page does not give up its link targets to the run's tools: 114 were carried from the version 1.0 audit list and 16 SELPAs were reached through their host agency's site; every such row is flagged. (6) The regional_unit column is empty: the department's SELPA membership file was located and not parsed. (7) The identified counts are the state's reporting district rows, pupils counted where they are educated; the state suppresses small cells, so only 73 rows carry a number and the publication measure runs on those alone. A charter unit carries no identified count because the state publishes none at school level. (8) State regulations were read on a secondary mirror, because the official host requires the owner's approval of every page load. Several department pages, the agents' research returns and the PDFs they summarize are delegated extractions and are marked as such on their Sources rows. (9) Operator silence is counted from what the rows record; the first pass was not asked to search each site for the state schools by name, so the affirmative lists are a floor. (10) Schema 1.2 has no keys for the directory route flag and the discovery method (LOG-001 D-043); they are written into the row's note and held in the audit rows file and the flags table under 01_Evidence.",
