Mailing Labels for Nonpublic Educational Programs Fact Sheet Regarding Maryland Church-Exempt Schools 1. What is meant by the term "church-exempt" school? Maryland law, Education Article, §2-206, Annotated Code of Maryland, exempts nonpublic schools that are governed and operated by a bona fide church organization from holding a Certificate of Approval from the State Board of Education. This means that a church-operated school is not required to meet the educational standards that have been established by the Maryland State Board of Education for nonpublic schools under COMAR 13A.09.09. "Church-exempt" schools must, however, register their operation with the Nonpublic School Approval Branch of the Maryland State Department of Education. 2. Is a church-exempt school required to comply with any approval or licensure requirements?

Pages: Home Site Map S E A R C H IFSP Tutorial - Evaluation and Assessment Legal Requirements for Evaluation and Assessment: Scope of Laws and Regulations Page 1 of 2 A Note about Laws and Regulations: Laws are passed, or enacted, either by a state legislature or the United States Congress. After a state or federal law is passed, the resultant regulations are published, or promulgated, to clarify the intent of each section of the law. Both state and federal regulations carry the weight of the law, and must be followed. Federal regulations provide minimum standards for state programs to follow. State agencies, such as the Maryland Department of Education, issue regulations to define how state and federal laws will be implemented, and may add regulations, as long as they do not conflict with federal regulations. Thus, it is important to understand both the federal and state regulations when discussing a particular program like early intervention. The early intervention regulations accompanying the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act are written, and updated periodically, by the U.S. Department of Education. They are published in the Federal Register as 34 CFR Part 303, Early Intervention Program for Infants and Toddlers with Disabilities. Maryland State Department of Education regulations incorporate the federal early intervention regulations, and are compiled in the Code of Maryland Regulations (COMAR). COMAR contains 33 Titles, with each Title corresponding to a department or agency; COMAR Title [13A.13.01] addresses the Maryland Infants and Toddlers program.

HEADLINES June 26, 2003 Proposed Change to Homeschooling Regulations Author: Maryland Department of Education Summary: The Maryland Department of Education originally proposed a rule that would require homeschoolers to file an assurance of consent notice every year. The latest version of the rule changes is not quite as restrictive. (See details below.) Status: The Maryland Board of Education passed these new rules on June 24, 2003. Requested Action: None at this time. HSLDA's Postion: HSLDA is never in favor of imposing greater restrictions on homeschool families. The new rules clearly do that, although the burden would have been greater had we not moved the Department to retreat from its original demand. We believe the proposed regulations, however, are the best possible outcome for the near term.

Harford County Public Schools on the Web Home Our Schools Our Schools Highlights > HSA and Graduation State Board Starts Path Tying HSA to Graduation Decision could pave way to requirements for Class of 2009 The following text is from the Maryland State Department of Education Press Release, STATE BOARD LAUNCHES REGULATORY PROCESS THAT COULD TIE THE HIGH SCHOOL ASSESSMENTS TO GRADUATION (December 4, 2003). The Maryland State Board of Education agreed on December 4th to begin the process of developing regulations that would require high school students to pass the four High School Assessments before receiving a Maryland High School Diploma. The multi-faceted concept also would provide other pathways to high school completion, including a local high school diploma, a diploma for certain students with learning disabilities who have Individualized Education Programs (IEPs), and a certificate of program completion. Assessment passage would not be the sole criteria for graduation, however, as other high school completion requirements that are currently in place - such as successful completion of coursework and service-learning work - would remain. The State Board launched the regulatory process on a 9-2 vote, but the concept has a long way to go before final approval.

AFSCME Makes History with Veto Override SB 78 restores retirement service credit to state employees at the Baltimore City Child Support Enforcement agency who had lost that credit while involuntarily privatized for 6 years. Through a sunset of that act, the employees were finally allowed to return to state service in 2002, only to realize that they would have to work and extra 6 years to make up time lost while contracted out. The House version of the bill, HB 812 was sponsored by Delegate Towanna Gaines, and it was also vetoed and overridden in the House of Delagates. In 2003, AFSCME Council 92 spearheaded the lobbying to return the service credit. After session ended, and Governor Ehrlich vetoed the bill, new lobbying began immediately and was ultimately successful. We Did It! Pay Raise, Steps, and Beating Back Health Insurance Increases! After management threatened to increase prescription drug co-payments to $10, $20, and $30, AFSCME also lobbied hard. As a result, for the first time ever, the legislature adopted language in the state budget which requires that any changes in plans and co-pays must be negotiated through collective bargaining. This not only holds back the increases, it send a message to the Governor that collective bargaining must be honored! To get a copy of a leaflet about the pay raise

Maryland Homeschooling Regulations Home Timeline Letter 1 to MSBOE Letter 2 to MSBOE Current Regulations Proposed Changes Timeline of Events Since 1987, Maryland has had stable homeschooling regulations that have served the state well. These regulations were developed through a collaborative effort of Maryland homeschoolers, the Maryland State Department of Education, and the Maryland legislature. Relations have remained on a cordial basis with an unspoken agreement that open communications would continue and that homeschoolers would have an opportunity to participate in formulating any regulations that would affect them. Unfortunately, that cordial relationship was threatened when the homeschooling community was surprised last year by proposed changes to the homeschooling regulation. In October, the proposed changes were published in the Maryland Register, (Vol 29, Issue 21) with a period for public commentary ending on November 19, 2002. No homeschoolers had participated in creating the proposed changes and none had been notified. It was only by chance that the proposal was noticed by a homeschooler and an effort was mounted find out more information. October 30, 2002
