Overview

RULE:

6A-6.0960

Florida Tax Credit Scholarship Program

PURPOSE:

The purpose of the rule development is to account for three changes in the Florida Tax Credit scholarship program administration: (1) Scholarship Funding Organizations are no longer required to take receipt of a student’s proof of withdrawal from public school prior to enrolling the student into the FTC scholarship program. This eliminates the need for Scholarship Funding Organizations (SFO’s) to maintain proof of withdrawal documentation for students in the program; (2) The format and timing of the quarterly report required by the Department of Scholarship Funding Organizations is being adjusted in order to facilitate administration of the program; and (3) New criteria for approving alternate norm-referenced assessments have been provided by the Office of Assessments.

SUBJECT:

The reports required by SFO’s and alternate norm-referenced assessment criteria.
