Bill > HB1050

This bill makes it optional for a local education provider, such as a school district, to create an individualized readiness plan for a student entering kindergarten if that student already demonstrates proficiency in all assessed areas, including cognition, physical well-being, social-emotional development, language, literacy, and math, as well as passing the state's kindergarten reading assessment. However, parents or legal guardians can still request an individualized readiness plan for their child, and the results of these assessments and any plans must be communicated in writing to parents, including information about why a plan might not be required and the option to request one. The bill also updates reporting requirements to include school readiness data disaggregated by various demographic factors and clarifies that a local education provider is not required to administer the literacy component of the school readiness assessment if they conduct the kindergarten reading assessment within the first sixty days of the school year.
