Regards age requirements for kindergarten admission

Added a new section requiring the Department of Education and Workforce to review and correct scores for students affected by a scoring error on a single one-point question from the 2024-2025 science end-of-course exam, including awarding any applicable seals or honors diploma seals that may result from the correction.

Reorganized and clarified the structure of section 3321.01, separating definitions of 'successfully completed kindergarten' into distinct divisions and adding new definitions for 'all-day kindergarten' and related fee structures.

Added provisions requiring districts to evaluate children who do not meet standard age requirements but will be five or six years old by January of the school year, and clarified that districts must admit students who have successfully completed kindergarten regardless of age when transferring.

Expanded eligibility criteria for 'successfully completed kindergarten' to include kindergarten classes offered by licensed child care providers and those taught by teachers with specific credentials, including Montessori credentials and equivalent certifications.

Added specific age requirements stating that students must be five or six years old by the first day of instruction to be admitted to kindergarten, with additional provisions for districts that begin school in August or September.

Added new definition for 'successfully completed kindergarten' covering public schools, licensed child care providers, and specific kindergarten classes taught by licensed educators or Montessori-certified teachers.

Added requirement that no school district may admit a child to first grade unless they have successfully completed kindergarten, with exceptions for students who completed kindergarten through alternative programs.

Added provisions allowing school districts to charge fees or tuition for all-day kindergarten starting in 2012-2013, with requirements to develop sliding fee scales based on family income.

Added new reporting requirements mandating annual surveys of districts charging all-day kindergarten fees, including data on fee amounts, eligibility for free/reduced lunches, and enrollment in half-day versus all-day kindergarten.

Removed provisions amending sections 3314.06, 3314.08, and 3317.0213, which previously covered general school admission procedures, Montessori program funding, and tuition basis admission for non-resident students.

Changed the bill title from amending four sections to only amending section 3321.01, and removed page numbers and formatting artifacts from the original text.
