Subject of Possible Rule Making: Chapter 392-700 WAC, Dropout reengagement.

     Statutes Authorizing the Agency to Adopt Rules on this Subject: RCW 28A.175.100.

     Reasons Why Rules on this Subject may be Needed and What They Might Accomplish: Chapter 392-700 WAC requires updating to address the following:

•	Adjust the AAFTE averaging calculation due to the new June enrollment reporting requirement,
•	Remove language of standard/nonstandard school year,
•	Clarify program development issues, and
•	Update language to align with existing apportionment WACs.

     Process for Developing New Rule: Early solicitation of public comments and recommendations respecting new, amended, or repealed rules, and consideration of the comments and recommendations in the course of drafting rules.

     Interested parties can participate in the decision to adopt the new rule and formulation of the proposed rule before publication by contacting Becky McLean, OSPI Enrollment Supervisor, Old Capitol Building, P.O. Box 47200, Olympia, WA, (360) 725-6306.
