| VT | Signed into law 05/2008 | P-12 | Provides for the quality of all prekindergarten education programs offered by or through public school districts. For the 2008–2009 school year, any prekindergarten education program operated by a school district or by a private provider on behalf of a school district that is not yet participating in the STARS program is to be granted presumptive eligibility at a three star level if the program is in good regulatory standing with the department for children and families.

| NE | Signed into law 04/2008 | P-12 | At the request of 1 a parent or guardian, a school district is to issue a certificate of attendance to a student who receives special education services, who has reached seventeen years of age, and who has not completed his or her individualized education plan. Requires districts to allow a student who receives a certificate of attendance under this section to participate in the high school graduation ceremony of such high school with students receiving high school diplomas. A student may receive only one certificate of attendance and may participate in only one graduation ceremony based on such certificate. The receipt of a certificate of attendance does not affect a school district's obligation to continue to provide special education services to a student receiving such certificate. Does not preclude a student from receiving a high school diploma by meeting the school district's graduation requirements or in his or her individualized education plan or receiving a diploma of high school equivalency upon completing the requirements of such section. The school district may allow a student who has previously participated in a graduation ceremony based on a certificate of attendance to participate in an additional graduation ceremony when such student receives a high school diploma.
For school year 2008-09, any early childhood education program established by a school board or an educational service unit that is not receiving a grant or funding through the Tax Equity and Educational Opportunities Support Act may enroll children who meet the age requirements to be enrolled in kindergarten.
