SECTION 1. PI 11.36 (11) (a) is amended to read:
PI 11.36 (11)   (a) Significant developmental delay means children, ages 3, 4 and 5 through 9 years of age or below compulsory school attendance age, who are experiencing significant delays in the areas of physical, cognition, communication, social-emotional, or adaptive development.
SECTION 2. STATEMENT OF EMERGENCY:
FINDING OF EMERGENCY
  The Department of Public Instruction finds that an emergency exists and that the attached rule is necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, safety, or welfare. A statement of the facts constituting the emergency is:
An emergency rule is needed so this rule change is in effect prior to the beginning of the 2015-16 school year. This will ensure that identification of children with significant development delay is performed consistently throughout the school year. If this rule is not effective prior to the beginning of the school year, school districts will have to implement one set of procedures for part of the school year and then change procedures when the rule takes effect. This would make implementation of the change in identification of significant development delay more difficult and would result in children being treated differently based on when they were evaluated.
SECTION 3. EFFECTIVE DATE:
The rules contained in this order shall take effect on July 1st, 2015.
Dated this _____ day of ____________, 201_
