Summary


This rule change adds clarifying language specifying that a qualifying student may enroll directly in USDB if the student's previous primary educational instruction was in American Sign Language and USDB's program most closely matches the qualifying student's prior program of instruction. Language added further clarifies which services the USDB will provide free of charge, and that USDB shall provide all funded outreach services at no cost for qualifying students within a local education agency (LEA) with less than three percent of the student population statewide.
