Extractions: The Early Childhood Development and Academic Assistance Act of 1993, known as Act 135, added to Education Improvement Act funds to provide for the expansion of "Target 2000" to all 91 school districts by the year 1994-95 and allows schools more flexibility in using funds. In their five-year plans for serving children from birth to age five, districts must include a parenting/family literacy component that creates partnerships with health and human service agencies, adult education programs and community organizations. Districts also must make intensive efforts to recruit parents whose children are at risk for school failure, must provide parent education and are encouraged to offer parents opportunities to improve their education if they do not possess a high school diploma or its equivalent. The legislation provides for the State Board of Education to promulgate regulations, but these regulations have not yet been approved by the General Assembly. The "Guidelines for Implementing Parenting/Family Literacy As Required By Act 135" address service delivery methods, needs assessment and developmental screening. They call for an annual evaluation of each program and collaboration with other local agencies. In the "Guidelines," at-risk children are defined according to criteria including developmental delays, unstable homes, poverty, limited English proficiency, low educational level of parent, unusual age of caregiver, poor health, child abuse and neglect, inadequate parenting and inadequate access to critically needed family services.
