Ensures students can attend kindergarten in the District of Columbia without unnecessary delays.

This bill addresses issues with the District of Columbia Public Schools' (DCPS) kindergarten enrollment policies. It aims to prevent the reporting of families to the Child and Family Services Agency for truancy when their children attend pre-K4 programs. The legislation also seeks to allow students who turn five after their previous state's kindergarten cutoff but before September 30 to enroll in DCPS kindergarten if they move to the District during the school year.
