Existing law requires that a child be admitted to kindergarten at the beginning of a school year, or at any time later in the same year, if the child will have his or her 5th birthday as specified. Existing law establishes the Kindergarten Readiness Pilot Program, which is administered by the Superintendent of Public Instruction, to permit participating school districts to provide opportunities for children to enhance their readiness for kindergarten, as provided. Existing law requires the Superintendent, by June 1, 2007, to contract for an independent longitudinal evaluation regarding the effects of the change in the entry age for kindergarten and first grade pursuant to the kindergarten readiness program. Existing law requires the independent evaluator to file an initial report by June 1, 2009, an interim report by January 1, 2011, and a final report by January 1, 2012. This bill would make technical, nonsubstantive changes to the kindergarten admission provision. This bill would require the independent evaluator to file the final report by January 1, 2013, instead of January 1, 2012.
