Introduced Text

Rhode Island S2433 establishes presumptions for early childhood education programs in RIDE-certified school buildings.

Rhode Island S2433 amends the statute establishing the state's voluntary quality rating system for early care and education and school-age child care. It requires that facility-based elements of observational tools or environment rating scales be deemed met or treated neutrally for programs operating in RIDE-certified school buildings. This ensures these elements do not negatively impact the quality rating of early care and education programs.
