That the Superintendent of Public Instruction, in partnership with the Secretary of Education, shall establish a work group to review health and safety expectations for out-of-school time programs, as defined in § 22.1-289.02 of the Code of Virginia, as amended by this act. Specifically, the work group shall make recommendations to (i) reduce regulations while ensuring that all school-age children enrolled in out-of-school time programs are kept healthy and safe; (ii) ensure fairness as it relates to which out-of-school time programs are required to be licensed and which are exempt pursuant to subsection B 11 of § 22.1-289.030 of the Code of Virginia, as amended by this act; and (iii) implement changes in a way that does not jeopardize services for school-age children enrolled in out-of-school time programs. The work group shall include representatives of school divisions, 21st Century Community Learning Center grantees, private child care providers, the Virginia Partnership for Out-of-School Time, local parks and recreation entities, the YMCA, Communities in Schools, Boys and Girls Clubs, and other organizations that provide out-of-school time programming. The work group shall report its findings and recommendations to the Governor and the Chairmen of the House Committee on Education and the Senate Committee on Education and Health by December 1, 2025.
