Revised Exceptional Student Education Rules

Background

The responsibility of Florida's Department of Education is to assist school districts, schools, and families in providing an education for all students, as well as to assist school districts in understanding and implementing the laws. The purpose of the revised ESE rules is to ensure that the Florida State Board of Education’s rules reflect the federal regulations that operationally define the IDEA.

ESE Revised Rules

After four years of rule development activities, including four sets of statewide public rule development workshops, meetings with advocacy groups, receipt and review of comments, and presentations at local and statewide meetings, twelve ESE rules were submitted to the State Board of Education and approved on March 16, 2004.
