Rhode Island: Child Day Care Center Regulations for Licensure (1993) THE LICENSING PROCESS The primary purpose of licensing a child day care center is to safeguard the well-being of the children served. Granting a license means there is clear evidence that the building and grounds are safe; that staff are appropriately trained and responsible; and that the program shall, in practice, reflect an understanding of the healthy growth and development of children. Further, the license is meant to be an assurance to parents and the community that the children are being cared for in a safe, healthy environment where appropriate activities, time schedules, food, materials, equipment and staff are consistently available and are used for encouraging and supporting the children's physical, social, emotional, and intellectual growth. Licensing is a method of regulation designed to implement the state's obligation to the families whose children attend day care centers. A license is granted after a detailed evaluation of the facility and program has shown that conformity to the established regulations prevails. The regulations used for this evaluation are described in SECTION II of this publication. An application for licensure may be obtained from the Day Care Licensing Office of the Rhode Island Department of Children, Youth and Families. A: PROCEDURE FOR OBTAINING A LICENSE 1. CONSULTATION - Any person, firm, corporation, association or agency interested in opening a day care center program for school age children shall contact the Day Care Licensing Supervisor for assignment to a licensing worker. An initial consultation will be held upon request to review the regulations, discuss the need for such a program in the chosen community, review the proposed program, and examine the financial resources available. A preliminary visit to the proposed facility will be made by the licensing worker to determine the feasibility of achieving compliance with regulations.

A child may be exempted if the parent presents a certificate, setting forth that the child has attended for the required period of time a private day school or received instruction approved by the school committee. (§16-19-1). There are no express statutes either permitting or prohibiting Released Time programs in Rhode Island. EDUCATION REGULATIONS: (Policy) Individual students may be excused for various reasons by local school committees. However, no state Released Time program exists nor does the State Board of Education know of any local Released Time programs (Commissioner of Education, Providence, Rhode Island, phone: 401-277-2046). CASES: None ATTORNEY GENERAL OPINIONS: None SCRIPTURE UNION Recommendations: Like your state, many do not have specific laws or guidelines concerning Released Time. The absence of a specific law does not necessarily prohibit Released Time programs. In fact, it may allow a wider range of Released Time programs. For example, it is possible to offer Released Time classes as an off-campus elective class on the High School or Junior High level, which students take daily. This is being done in states such as Georgia, Florida, Utah, Arizona, and Idaho.

The charter must describe enrollment procedures including the non-discriminatory criteria for admission in accordance with applicable state and federal law, along with a program to encourage the enrollment of a diverse student population. The makeup of the school must reflect the student population of the district including, but not limited to, special education students, students eligible for free and reduced lunch, and limited English proficient students. State standards apply: Yes. The charter must provide a plan for education that includes the mission, objectives, method of providing a basic education, a process for improving student learning and fulfilling the charter as well as state and national education goals and standards.
