<title>Regulatory Change to Preschool Referral Time Lines</title>
<description>The Board of Regents has approved a regulatory change to preschool referral time lines that will go into effect April 11, 2012. Current regulations stipulate that preschool referrals must be made within 30 school days of the date of receiving parental consent to evaluate. The regulation has been revised to change the 30 school days to 60 calendar days, aligning it with the referral time line for school age children. District data submitted for VR 11 with a date of consent (Event 2) on or after April 11 will automatically fall under the new preschool referral time line. District data submitted with a date of consent (Event 2) after February 10, 2012 and a date of meeting (Event 3) on or after April 11 will also fall under the new preschool referral time line. The VR 11 will automatically allow referrals that are eligible for and comply with the 60 calendar day time line to be counted as timely, even if the districts reported a number of days late based on the 30 school day time line.</description>
