AN ACT CONCERNING MILITARY FAMILIES AND EDUCATION POLICIES REGARDING ENROLLMENT FOR PURPOSES OF SPECIAL EDUCATION AND PLACEMENT STABILITY.
HB 7123 helps military-connected children with special education needs transition smoothly when moving due to military orders. It requires schools to transfer records and complete evaluations within 30 days for children with individualized education programs (IEPs) or 504 plans, ensuring comparable services. The bill also allows these children to stay enrolled in their current school district during the school year if their parent receives military orders relocating them, accepting military orders as proof of residency. These changes apply directly to military families in Connecticut and aim to reduce disruptions in education during relocations.
