1 Indicator 6: Preschool in the LRE Massachusetts Patricia Cameron, 619 Coordinator, Department of Early Education and Care Donna Traynham, Elementary School Services, Department of Elementary & Secondary Education

2 Preschool in the LRE Massachusetts collects information on where 3, 4 and 5 year old children with disabilities are spending their day, in addition to the services they are receiving through special education, through its Student Information Management System (SIMS). New codes were assigned for the 3-5 year olds; former codes now used for year olds. Districts were trained in Spring 2007.

3 Preschool in the LRE Tools were developed to assist districts in collecting this information at IEP team meetings, and become part of a child’s file. ms/word/PL2_3-5.doc ms/word/PL2_3-5.doc ms/word/PL2_3-5.xls ms/word/PL2_3-5.xls

4 Formula Change Baseline Formula # of hrs of special education services in an inclusive setting plus # of hrs in a natural environment divided by 25 hrs Revised Formula # of hrs in an inclusive early childhood setting divided by (the # of hours in special education settings outside of an inclusive early childhood setting plus the # of hours in an inclusive early childhood setting)

5 Attends EC program? Attends spec ed program? Receives spec ed at Home? Service Provider 48 What % time spent there? What is the location? Home 46 ≥80% 30 40% to 79% 32 <40% 34 separate class 36 separate school 38 or 42 residential facility 44 or 45 Yes (use formula) yes no Early Childhood Environments Decision Tree
