PREPROPOSAL STATEMENT OF INQUIRY

[Filed July 20, 2016, 10:53 a.m.]

Subject of Possible Rule Making: WAC 392-121-106 Definition—Enrolled student.

Statutes Authorizing the Agency to Adopt Rules on this Subject: RCW 28A.150.290.

Reasons Why Rules on this Subject may be Needed and What They Might Accomplish: WAC 392-121-106 requires updating to align the definition of an enrolled student with WAC 392-172A-02000 that addresses a student's right to a free appropriate public education. This change will address the age discrepancy for students whose birthday is September 1.

Process for Developing New Rule: Early solicitation of public comments and recommendations respecting new, amended, or repealed rules, and consideration of the comments and recommendations in the course of drafting rules.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, Superintendent of Public Instruction, Enrollment Supervisor, (360) 725-6306, Old Capitol Building, P.O. Box 47200, Olympia, WA.
