What happens when a parent notifies but doesn't follow up within 30 days? The student is truant.

The School to Work Program - there seems to be little knowledge about this program in the real world be it B.I.A. or the education community.

Welcome Pat Bussell [sic], she's been wroking with Senator Wheeler who wants to modify HB 1203 to assure home schooled students who are refused services don't get counted. (see handout)

• actual use or availability or services?
• list of services?

In the first sentence of HB 1203 draft amendment Section II, include the word "for" before "a child" in all three places.

Jackie would like:

• to remove "or commissioner" - and
• make it clear the initial "notification" letter is only part of the notification process.
