PROPOSED RULEMAKING

STATE BOARD OF EDUCATION

[22 PA. CODE CHS. 4, 11 AND 12]

Prekindergarten

[36 Pa.B. 2981]
[Saturday, June 17, 2006]

   The State Board of Education (Board) proposes to amend Chapters 4, 11 and 12 (relating to academic standards and assessment; student attendance; and students and student services) to read as set forth in Annex A. The Board acts under the authority of the Public School Code of 1949 (code) (24 P. S. §§ 1-101--27-2702), including section 2603-B of the code (24 P. S. § 26-2603-B).

Purpose

   The proposed amendments to Chapters 4, 11 and 12 establish standards for prekindergarten programs that are operated by school districts or contracted by school districts with community providers. Prekindergarten programs are voluntary programs operated by many school districts for children between 3 and 4 years of age. Parents are not required to enroll their children in prekindergarten programs.

   The Commonwealth and its school districts invest millions of taxpayer dollars each year to operate prekindergarten programs. It is critical that these resources be used to help prepare children to be fully prepared for school enrollment though high quality educational experiences. This proposed rulemaking, together with other rulemakings being considered by the Board, would assure that these investments would have maximum educational benefit.

Requirements of the Proposed Rulemaking

   The proposed amendments to Chapter 4 add a new definition of ''prekindergarten'' and address new requirements for strategic planning, curriculum and instruction and the scheduling and learning options for prekinder- garten programs. The proposed amendments to Chapter 4 also include a provision that would permit the Secretary of Education (Secretary) to approve meritorious programs that do not meet all of the regulatory requirements.

   The proposed amendments to Chapter 11 address the minimum required hours for prekindergarten and the school term and instructional time for prekindergarten programs. Language in the proposed amendments also provides flexibility to school districts to make exceptions to the enrollment requirements.

   The proposed amendments to Chapter 12 address student services for prekindergarten students and would allow for exceptions to the prekindergarten enrollment requirements.

   The Board previously published proposed amendments to Chapter 4 at 35 Pa.B. 6107 (November 5, 2005). The Board is currently considering comments received in response to that proposed rulemaking. Proposed amendments to §§ 4.3 and 4.13 (relating to definitions; and strategic plans) were included in the proposal published at 35 Pa.B. 6107. The proposed amendments to §§ 4.3 and 4.13 included in this proposed rulemaking update and replace the proposed language to these sections published at 35 Pa.B. 6107.

   Interested individuals and organizations should carefully review the definition of ''prekindergarten'' in § 4.3 and strategic planning requirements in § 4.13 as they reflect the Board's most current proposal. The Board intends to delete the definition in § 4.3 and strategic planning language in § 4.13 proposed at 35 Pa.B. 6107 when the rulemaking is submitted for final-form approval and publication.

   Specific changes in this proposed rulemaking include the following:

   § 4.3. Definitions. A new definition of ''prekindergarten'' is added. This definition is different from the version published at 35 Pa.B. 6107.

   § 4.13. Strategic plans. The proposed amendments published at 35 Pa.B. 6107 are repeated here. However, subsection (c)(17) and (18) is added and amendments from 35 Pa.B. 6107 are made to subsections (c)(12) and (16) and (d).

   § 4.20. Prekindergarten education. This section is added to address program requirements for prekindergarten programs. This section makes clear that school districts are not required to offer a prekindergarten and that parents are not required to enroll their children in these programs if offered. This section also provides the Secretary authority to approve a meritorious prekindergarten program that does not meet all regulatory requirements when in the Secretary's judgment the program provides high quality learning opportunities and meets the conditions listed.

   § 4.41. Scheduling. The proposed rulemaking provides that school districts are not required to obtain Department approval of 1/2 day prekindergarten programs. The proposed amendment also provides that prekindergarten programs must provide at least 2 1/2 hours of instruction unless the school district obtains approval of the Department of Education to deviate from that standard.

   § 11.1. School term. Prekindergarten programs are added to the requirements for minimum number of days and hours of instruction.

   § 11.3. Minimum required hours. This section is amended to place the same minimum hourly requirements on prekindergarten programs that already exist for kindergarten programs.

   § 11.8. Definitions. The definition of ''instructional activities'' is amended to add subparagraph (x) to the list of activities that may be counted as instructional time. Also, the section is amended to add the definition of ''prekindergarten.''

   § 11.9. Prekindergarten exception. Section 11.9 is added to permit school districts to make exceptions to the age requirements for prekindergarten programs.

   § 12.1. Free education and attendance. Subsection (c) is added to permit school districts to make exceptions to the age requirements for enrollment.

   § 12.16. Definitions. A definition of ''prekindergarten'' is added.

   § 12.41. Student services. Subsection (a) is amended to add a requirement that the prekindergarten program be addressed in the school district strategic plan. Subsection (b)(1) is amended to require that for prekindergarten students, the school district's student services program includes nutritional services or referrals.

   § 12.42. Student assistance program. Section 12.42 is amended to make a technical correction to a statutory reference unrelated to this proposed rulemaking.

Affected Parties

   The proposed rulemaking will affect the students and professional employees of public schools in this Commonwealth.

Cost and Paperwork Estimates

   Since this proposed rulemaking is consistent with existing program grant standards for prekindergarten programs supported through the Accountability Block Grant program schools will already be in compliance with this proposed rulemaking. Therefore, the incurrence of any additional operating program costs beyond those specified in the regulations will be at the discretion of the school district and its elected board of directors. Complying with this proposed rulemaking will not add costs beyond those necessary to regular program operation.

Effective Date

   The proposed rulemaking will become effective upon final-form publication in the Pennsylvania Bulletin.

Sunset Date

   In accordance with the Board's policy and practice respecting all regulations, the Board will review the effectiveness of Chapters 4, 11 and 12 after 4 years. Therefore, no sunset date is necessary.

Regulatory Review

   Under section 5(a) of the Regulatory Review Act (71 P. S. § 745.5(a)), on June 2, 2006, the Board submitted a copy of this proposed rulemaking and a copy of a Regulatory Analysis Form to the Independent Regulatory Review Commission (IRRC) and to the Chairpersons of the House and Senate Committees on Education. A copy of this material is available to the public upon request.

   Under section 5(g) of the Regulatory Review Act, IRRC may convey any comments, recommendations or objections to the proposed rulemaking within 30 days of the close of the public comment period. The comments, recommendations or objections must specify the regulatory review criteria which have not been met. The Regulatory Review Act specifies detailed procedures for review, prior to final publication of the rulemaking, by the Board, the General Assembly and the Governor of comments, recommendations or objections raised.

Public Comments and Contact Person

   Interested persons are invited to submit written comments, suggestions or objections regarding this proposed rulemaking to Jim Buckheit, Executive Director, State Board of Education, 333 Market Street, Harrisburg, PA 17126-0333 within 30 days following publication in the Pennsylvania Bulletin. Persons with disabilities needing an alternative means of providing public comment may make arrangements by calling Jim Buckheit at (717) 787-3787 or TDD (717) 787-7367
