6A-1.09981Implementation of Florida's System of School Improvement and AccountabilityNOTICE OF CORRECTION
Notice is hereby given that the following correction has been made to the proposed rule in Vol. 38, No. 71, November 14, 2012 issue of the Florida Administrative Register.
The summary of statement of estimated regulatory cost and legislative ratification has been amended as follows: The Agency has determined that the amendments will not have an adverse impact on small business or likely increase directly or indirectly regulatory costs in excess of $2000,000 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 nature of the changes, namely changes to the criteria by which school grades are calculated, are not ones that will have any impact on small business. The state’s schools receive a grade from the agency based upon information provided to the agency by districts. This change in methodology does not require any change to the information provided to the agency and grades will be calculated by the agency based upon existing resources. Thus, no increase to regulatory costs are expected. For these same reasons, the changes are not expected to have any impact on the other criteria set forth in Section 120.541(2)(a), F.S.
