AI Summary
This bill directs the State Board of Education to update its regulations to ensure that when an individualized education program (IEP) team is developing an IEP for a student who is prone to regression, meaning they tend to lose skills or knowledge due to frequent changes, the team must consider the consistency of staffing. This applies particularly to students with conditions like autism spectrum disorder, and this consideration of consistent staffing will be a factor when deciding on special education placements within the school district.
