RULE NO.:RULE TITLE:

6A-1.0014Comprehensive Management Information System

PURPOSE AND EFFECT: To revise existing requirements of the statewide comprehensive management information system to implement changes required by school districts and to change state reporting and local recordkeeping procedures for state and/or federal programs as described in the updated FDOE Information Database Requirements. The proposed amendment will adopt the updated FDOE Information Database Requirements: Volume I – Automated Student Information System, 2223. The effect maintains compatibility among state and local information systems’ components. The statewide comprehensive management information system provides the data on which the measurement of school improvement and accountability is based.

SUMMARY: An amendment of the rule is proposed to update Volume I – Automated Student Information System 2022-23. This document describes the data elements, procedures and timelines for state reporting, local recordkeeping and statewide records transfer to be implemented by each school district and the department within the statewide comprehensive management information system.

SUMMARY OF STATEMENT OF ESTIMATED REGULATORY COSTS AND LEGISLATIVE RATIFICATION:

The Agency has determined that this will not have an adverse impact on small business or likely increase directly or indirectly regulatory costs in excess of $200,000 in the aggregate within one year after the implementation of the rule. A SERC has not been prepared by the Agency.

The Agency has determined that the proposed rule is not expected to require legislative ratification based on the statement of estimated regulatory costs or if no SERC is required, the information expressly relied upon and described herein: The agency has determined that the proposed rule is not expected to require legislative ratification. Based on past agency experience with adjusting reporting requirements for school districts in the comprehensive management information system, the adverse impact or regulatory cost, if any, do not exceed, nor would be expected to exceed, any one of the economic analysis criteria set forth in Section 120.541(2)(a), Florida Statues, because the proposed rule is anticipated to be implemented with existing staff and technology.

Any person who wishes to provide information regarding a statement of estimated regulatory costs, or provide a proposal for a lower cost regulatory alternative must do so in writing within 21 days of this notice.
