RULE:

6A-1.09433

Voluntary Prekindergarten Pre- and Post-Assessments (Repealed)

PURPOSE:

To remove Teaching Strategies Gold from the assessments that must be given to children who attend Voluntary Prekindergarten (VPK), to clarify the training requirements for persons who administer the VPK assessment, and to expand the VPK instructors who may assess children in VPK.

SUMMARY:

The proposed rule removes Teaching Strategies Gold, as a required assessment, leaving the progress monitoring tool known as the Florida VPK Assessment, as the approved assessment for VPK. The proposed rule also provides that documentation of training to administer the Florida VPK Assessment must be completed and maintained, and all VPK instructors, including summer providers, may assess children as long as they meet the qualifications for assessing children set forth in the rule.
