[ 22 PA. CODE CH. 4 ]

Corrective Amendment to 22 Pa. Code § 4.13(c) (12)--(14)

[38 Pa.B. 1148]
[Saturday, March 8, 2008]

   The State Board of Education has discovered a discrepancy between the agency text of 22 Pa. Code § 4.13(c)(12)--(14) (relating to strategic plans), as deposited with the Legislative Reference Bureau, and the official text published at 38 Pa.B. 872, 881 (February 16, 2008), and scheduled to appear in the Pennsylvania Code Reporter MTS 401 (April 2008). The text of subsection (c)(12)--(14) was inadvertently omitted.

   Therefore, under 45 Pa.C.S. § 901: The State Board of Education has deposited with the Legislative Reference Bureau a corrective amendment to 22 Pa. Code § 4.13(c)(12)--(14). The corrective amendment to 22 Pa. Code § 4.13(c)(12)--(14) is effective as of February 16, 2008, the date the defective official text appeared in the Pennsylvania Bulletin.

   The correct version of 22 Pa. Code § 4.13(c)(12)--(14) appears in Annex A, with ellipses referring to the existing text of that section.

ACADEMIC STANDARDS AND PLANNING

§ 4.13. Strategic plans.

*      *      *      *      *

   (c)  The strategic plan must be based upon an analysis of internal and external needs, leading to the specifications of priorities for action and action plans. The requirement in subsections (a) and (b) to develop plans every 6 years and revisions every 3 years does not limit a school district's (including charter schools) or AVTS's ability to conduct a continuous strategic planning process. The plan must include the following components in addition to others the school district (including charter schools) or AVTS determines to include:

*      *      *      *      *

   (12)  A description of how the school district will accomplish coordination with community operated infant and toddlers and preschool early intervention programs and the following before or after school programs and services for all grade levels, including prekindergarten, if offered, through grade 12:

   (i)  Child care.

   (ii)  After school programs.

   (iii)  Youth workforce development programs.

   (iv)  Tutoring.

   (13)  A school district that offers prekindergarten shall describe the prekindergarten program and explain how the district will coordinate with agencies that serve preschool age children with disabilities. The plan must address coordination activities designed to identify and serve children with disabilities and the supports and accommodations available to ensure both physical and programmatic access. The plan must address pre- kindergarten programs operated directly by the school district and those operated by community agencies under contract from the school district.

   (14)  A brief description of how the school district will provide for a smooth transition for prekindergarten students, when prekindergarten is offered, from the home setting and any early childhood care or education setting the students attend, to the school setting. This description must include how the district will coordinate with the infants and toddlers and preschool early intervention agencies that serve children with disabilities to ensure a smooth transition for those children to the school district's prekindergarten program.
