The purpose of the proposed rule is to clarify administrative procedures and establish requirements for student and nonprofit scholarship-funding organization participation in a scholarship program for children of families with limited financial resources supported by tax credit contributions from eligible taxpayers. The proposed rule also identifies the nationally norm-referenced tests that participating private schools may select to administer annually to assess the academic improvements of scholarship students. The effect will be a rule which is consistent with requirements set forth in statute for the administration and implementation of the scholarship program as authorized by Section 220.187, Florida Statutes.
