PREPROPOSAL STATEMENT OF INQUIRY
SUPERINTENDENT OF
PUBLIC INSTRUCTION
[Filed February 4, 2020, 1:01 p.m.]
Subject of Possible Rule Making: Chapter 392-122 WAC, Finance—Categorical apportionment; and WAC 392-140-916 through 392-140-939, finance special allocations, specifically K-3 funding.
Reasons Why Rules on this Subject may be Needed and What They Might Accomplish: The office of superintendent of public instruction (OSPI) is considering making housekeeping changes to chapter 392-122 WAC, Finance—Categorical apportionment, and WAC 392-140-916 through 392-140-939. The housekeeping changes would update the chapter to align with state and federal statutes, simplify the language for clarity and readability, and make other technical revisions.
Process for Developing New Rule: Early solicitation of feedback and recommendations respecting new or amended 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 Dierk Meierbachtol, OSPI, P.O. Box 47200, Olympia, WA 98504, phone 360-725-6004, fax 360-725-6712, TTY 360-664-3631, email dierk.meierbachtol@k12.wa.usl [dierk.meierbachtol@k12.wa.us], website www.k12.wa.us.
