Let Students Attend Kindergarten Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2025

This emergency resolution amends District of Columbia school enrollment policies to ensure children who turn five before September 30 (but after their home state's cutoff) can attend kindergarten when moving to DC, and prevents families from being reported for truancy if children attend private or parochial pre-kindergarten programs. It specifically requires DC Public Schools to permit kindergarten enrollment for these students instead of forcing them into first grade, and stops the misapplication of truancy rules against children in quality pre-k programs. The resolution directly affects families with children in private/parochial pre-k programs and families relocating to DC during the school year. It addresses immediate policy changes to align with existing age cutoffs and prevent educational disruption for affected students.
