| IL | Adopted 05/2012 | P-12 | From Illinois Register: This rulemaking resulted from the state board's application for funding under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) to design and implement early learning and development systems that are comprehensive in scope and coordinated among the various state agencies charged with administering the programs. The state board served as the lead agency for the application. Agency staff worked with outside consultants, early childhood education advocates and staff from the Department of Human Services (DHS), Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS) and the Illinois Early Learning Council to prepare the application. Unfortunately, Illinois was not successful in this effort and did not receive the grant.
The lack of funding now available for the initiatives set forth in Part 235, coupled with the public comment received, have resulted in certain initiatives being removed from the rulemaking or their implementation dates being delayed.
Briefly, the amendments address several significant changes that relate to the core focus areas of the federal grant. In particular, efforts were made to coordinate the state board's Preschool for All Children (PFA) and Prevention Initiative grant programs with those offered through or licensed by DHS or DCFS. In particular, the proposed amendments required any recipient of these grants to use the DHS' Tiered Quality Rating and Improvement System (a requirement that has since been removed from the rulemaking) and continue to require that grantees register certain staff in DHS' Gateways to Opportunity staff registry and credentialing system.
Additionally, a portion of the federal grant was to be used to continue the agency's efforts to develop and implement a kindergarten readiness tool to gauge a student's progress during the school year. Under the rules as proposed any school district that offers kindergarten (whether full or half day) would be required to administer the Kindergarten Individual Development Survey, or KIDS. While this requirement was placed in 23 Ill. Adm. Code 1 (to be adopted later this spring), Section 235.70(o) of early childhood rules had required that all school districts with PFA grants participate in the limited statewide implementation of KIDS in the 2013-14 school year.
Part 235 amendments include expansion of program standards to address initiatives serving children ages 3 to 5 (see Section 235.Appendix B). While developmental guidelines for infants and toddlers have been removed from the rules due to public comment, the existing learning and developmental standards for children ages 3-5 have been updated and now align to the recently adopted Illinois Learning Standards for
English language arts and mathematics, commonly referred to as the common core standards.
Other changes in Part 235 include the following:
• Requesting in Section 235.20(c)(4) that applicants provide information about other similar programs operating in the same service area, including the number of children estimated to be served, if that figure is known
• Setting in Section 235.30(a)(1)(C) minimum criteria for procedures used to assess the progress of children enrolled in a PFA program
• Clarifying in Section 235.50(a)(1)(A) that consideration in the proposal review process will be given to applicants serving areas where the need for services exceeds the available resources, when that information is available to an applicant.

For 2012-2013, requires the Office of Early Learning to submit by May 31, 2012, a recommended allocation of School Readiness Program funds, including standardized provider payment rates, Gold Seal premium rate percentages, and a parent co-payment percentage to the School Readiness Allocation Conference for review. Requires recalculation of the funding allocations quarterly by the Office of Early Learning. Provides for fraud investigations and provides penalties for school readiness providers and parents who knowingly submit false information related to child eligibility and attendance in a school readiness program. Creates the School Readiness Allocation Conference, are to review allocation recommendations by the Office of Early Learning.

| FL | Signed into law 04/2012 | P-12 | Requires each private prekindergarten provider and public school in the Voluntary Prekindergarten Education Program to implement an evidence-based pre- and post-assessment approved by the state board of education.

Repeals provisions basing private providers' and public schools' "kindergarten readiness rate" on the results of the statewide kindergarten screening for students completing the Voluntary Prekindergarten Education Program. Adds provision requiring kindergarten readiness rates to include student learning gains when available, calculated using a value-added measure. Eliminates certain provisions related to the good cause exemption for private providers otherwise deemed ineligible to deliver and receive state funds for the Voluntary Prekindergarten Education Program. Requires each coalition to report student enrollment monthly, and prohibits a student enrollment count for the prior fiscal year from being amended after December 31 of the subsequent fiscal year.
