playing our nation. in a new california study may shed more light on why. abc7 reports on how few kids are taking p. e. in this state. >> california requires middle and high school students to get 400 minutes of physical education every ten days. but a new ucla study found nearly 40%, that's 1.3 million teens, enrolled in a public school, do not participate in any school-based p. e. class. >> we don't have p. e. in our school and i think it's ridiculous because kids need physical education or else they will get fat. >> it's kind of sad. everybody p. e. because it helps people learn how to be fit. >> and more alarming almost all 12 year olds participate in p. e. class bus by the time they are 17 years old, less than a quarter do. the report also found that more than 80% of all california teens failed to meet the current federal recommendations for physical activity. while high school students can exempt out of p. e. for certain

reasons, researchers blame budget cuts for the lack of school based exercise programs. that, despite new risk studies that show p. e. helps boost academic performance. >> in difficult financial times there are decisions being made, both at state and local levels, that are counter intuitive, they don't make sense. but when you don't have money people start doing things that don't make sense. >> doctors worry about the consequences of cutting p. e. out of academics. this pediatrician, who is also an assemblyman, sees his patients getting heavier and heavier. >> with the obesity epidemic that's happening we are to make sure the kids have good health habits and part of that is physical activity. if the state's expiring tax hikes don't get extended for a longer period of time, schools could see billions more in budget cuts. abc7 news. lease. lisa is a look ahead with a

filing cabinet because police don't have real leads to arrest anyone. this case was initially filed away too until police had another look and realized it was different. >> the victim had all the information, including photographs and had triangle -eight using the software where he believed the computer was. >> and they used facebook and different social networks and browsing information on line and they got there quickly. >> in oakland it didn't take long to track down the 27-year-old who police say he admitted bought the laptop knowing it was stolen. >> we conducted an undercover operation which within two hours we were able to locate and arrest the suspect and recover the laptop. >> and there was a limo driver who lured them to meet him in a squad car and he left in a squad car. in oakland, abc7 news. >> maybe the top story of the

day is what lisa is about to tell us. what is it going to be out there on this sunday? >> a little cloudy but no record rain. the records are over. inch, in and a half yesterday. the area of low pressure still offshore. emeryville look at partly cloudy skies but the area of low pressure will weaken and it will move across the southern part of the bay area. so still have some showers to deal with. light shower activity from highway 101. santa rosa, and further east there's no moderate rain. fairfield and vacaville and around the livermore valley, the san ramon valley, dublin looking at light returns here and further south kind of quiet. not as much activity throughout gilroy and hollister but a few showers east of san jose. so there's the low. it's offshore. the rain bands, a couple hundred miles west of monterey.

it will sink to the east-southeast and it will weaken as it slides toward the coast. that's why we will see the cloud cover, the chance of showers, a few breaks, but the breaks will be with us throughout the day today. so we are only looking at a couple hundreds inch of rain out there in the wettest conditions. staterd showers and sunshine. possibility with thunderstorm with afternoon heating and dry and warmer beginning tomorrow. so we are looking at the low. you continue to see it wobbling just to the west of us. there are the showers. they will continue to spin up from the south to the north. we will look for the activity to increase around the san joaquin, the sacramento valley. but closer to the coast things are definitely quieter today than yesterday. so throughout the rest of the day today notice the cloud cover. and a few showers popping up. here we are through the afternoon hours. then through the overnight hours

tonight you will notice we get a little more rain throughout the east bay, the livermore valley. then into monday morning the commute, a few light showers, but many more sunny breaks. a few showers lingering into the east bay. but then we are looking at a pretty nice day tomorrow, and then after that, boy, we will get back to normal. so we still have some very unseasonable weather throughout the day today, but giants probably still will be playing today, good bet with some showers out there. temperatures in the low to mid-60s. 1:00 playing the rockies. we will look for our own temperatures well below normal with the cloud cover out there. a chance of showers, numbers in the 60s downtown. 66 oakland, upper 60s concord, half moon bay 59. our look ahead, day-to-day big improvements. in fact, today, backing off significantly on the rain, but still some showers out there. possibility of a thunderstorm. maybe a tenth of an inch of rain. we around seeing any more zeros after that in the inch category. partly cloudy and then tomorrow.

look at that, mid-70s, upper 70s, low 80s. it looks pretty good out there. but we just are not there yet. >> you took yesterday off to go to a graduation? >> a wet graduation. trying to hide my face because -- >> you get blamed. >> sometimes, yes. >> lisa, thanks a lot. schools all over the state are struggling financially, but spending at public schools is far from equal. that's the finding of our media partner california watch, part of the nonprofit project for the center for investigative reporting. what it has found are huge disparities in the amount of cash spent district to district. and more money does not guarantee academic success. abc7 has more. in east palo alto, budget cuts have made it difficult to get things done. >> we can barely afford the textbooks. we can't afford to provide the supplement materials that the classroom teacher needs. >> the superintendent struggles to meet the needs of her student body.

>> what the difference is, at least 49% of that, of our budget, is categorical. it is targeted for specific programs. >> the complicated school finance system is to blame. for instance, california watch found the raven woodward school district gets almost as much money per student as its wealthier neighbor, palo alto, but still does not achieve the same academic success. california watch lewis freed poured over data provided by the state and federal government to pull together the amount of money spent by every district in the state and how those districts perform. >> the research on the relationship between money and student outcome, money and test scores, is very unclear. >> their analysis shows there is no substantial correlation between how much a school district spends and its academic performance index, which is based on student test scores and other academic measures. >> what we found is that the state of california for many

years has been trying to equalize spending among school districts around the state. and what we found is that big differences still remain. >> last year california's schools spent an average of $8,452 to educate each student. that figure includes money from local, state and federal sources, including one-time stimulus funds. but some districts get much more than others. creating huge ranges in funding. for instance, this school district spent nearly $34,000 per student. just across the bay in san francisco, it's about $10,000. here just $7,300. >> our current school finance formula has just built up over the years without any

rationality to it. >> state board of education perez michael kerst is the go-to guy for education. he served for the governor during his first term in the 70s and is surprised to see how little has changed since he was last in office. >> we just added bells and whistles and more and more programs and more and more complexity and tweaked it, and it sort of ends up as pretty much a flat line. >> he says things have got to change. he says districts need to extend class days and invest in technology. to do that they will need money. >> we are losing a generation of children each year that aren't getting the quality of education that they need because of funding. >> abc7 news. for more on the california watch investigation or to look up how much your school district gets, check out our website at abc7 news or check out today's san francisco chronicle. don't go away, 7 on your side is next. >> go green and get paid for it. i'm michael finney with the latest on solar incentives for homeowners. 7 on your side
