Five-Year Notice of Review and Statement of Continuation

DAR File No.: 39582

NOTICE OF REVIEW AND STATEMENT OF CONTINUATION

Concise explanation of the particular statutory provisions under which the rule is enacted and how these provisions authorize or require the rule:

Subsection 53A-1-401(3) allows the Utah State Board of Education (Board) to adopt rules in accordance with its responsibilities and Subsection 53A-6-901(2) directs the Board to make rules to provide criteria to award grants related to mathematics education.

Summary of written comments received during and since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule:

Utah Education Association (UEA) submitted the following concern on 06/17/2015: It appears that the USOE is being replaced by the Superintendent. UEA states that they suspect that intent is "under the direction of the Superintendent" but feel it should be more explicit in the rule.

Reasoned justification for continuation of the rule, including reasons why the agency disagrees with comments in opposition to the rule, if any:

This rule continues to be necessary because it provides to establish criteria to award a grant to support and encourage prospective educators to earn mathematics endorsements and assist an experienced mathematics teacher in becoming a teacher leader. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
