Introduced Text

Pennsylvania HB1505 amends the definition of "eligible provider" in early learning programs to include certain entities that meet quality standards.

Pennsylvania HB1505 amends the definition of "eligible provider" in early learning programs to include school districts, intermediate units, Head Start programs, and nursery schools licensed under the Private Academic Schools Act. It also includes child day care centers or group day care homes that meet or exceed the standards of STAR 2 or STAR 3 under the Keystone STARS quality rating system. This change ensures that entities complying with quality program standards established by the Department of Education remain eligible for the program.
