A5218

Allows parents of twins or higher order multiples to choose shared or separate preschool classroom placement.

This bill allows parents or guardians of twins or higher order multiples to choose whether their children are placed in the same classroom or separate classrooms in public preschool programs. It requires public schools to treat twins or higher order multiples as one unit in the preschool lottery system and open enrollment. If one of the twins or higher order multiples receives special education services, the requested classroom placement shall not be accommodated if inconsistent with the student's Individualized Education Plan.
