AI Summary

This bill adds to existing Idaho law to provide for a kindergarten jump-start program and training for parents. The key provisions are: 1) School districts can use existing funds to establish a up to a 4-week kindergarten jump-start program for children who score as not ready for kindergarten on a spring screener. 2) School districts offering the jump-start program must also provide a training program for parents on actions and activities they can do to support their child's success. For a child to be eligible for the jump-start program, the parent must attend this training. The purpose of these new provisions is to help better prepare children for the start of kindergarten and engage parents in supporting their child's readiness and success.
