                              [This is an entirely new rule.]

RULE 148. EDUCATIONAL STABILITY & REMOVAL FROM HOME

A. General Rule. Any order resulting in the removal of the juvenile from home or a
   change in placement shall address the educational stability of the juvenile.

B. School of Origin. A juvenile removed from home shall remain in their school of
   origin unless the court finds remaining in the school of origin is not in the juvenile’s
   best interest or protective of the community. If the court finds that it is not in the best
   interest for the juvenile or protective of the community to remain in the school of
   origin, then the court may order the juvenile to be enrolled in another school that
   best meets the juvenile’s needs.

C. Another School. If a court orders the juvenile to be enrolled in another school
   pursuant to paragraph (B), then the juvenile shall attend a public school unless the
   court finds that a public school is not in the best interest of the juvenile or protective
   of the community.

                                         Comment

       This rule is intended to apply at any point in a delinquency proceeding when the
juvenile is removed from home, including pre-dispositional detention placement and
post-dispositional modification resulting in the juvenile’s out of home placement or a
change to that placement. This rule is intended to complement rather than supersede
the requirements of Rule 512(D)(6).

       In paragraph (B), the best interest determination should be based on factors
including the appropriateness of the current educational setting considering the
juvenile’s needs, the proximity of the school of origin relative to the placement location,
and the protection of the community. This paragraph is intended to facilitate
educational stability while the juvenile remains under the jurisdiction of the Juvenile
Court and to codify the presumption that a juvenile is to remain in their school of origin
absent evidence that it is not in the best interest of the juvenile or protective of the
community to do so.
         In paragraph (C), circumstances indicating that it may not be in the best interest
for the juvenile to attend a public school includes the security and safety of the juvenile
and treatment needs. Paragraph (C) is intended to codify the presumption that a
juvenile is to attend public school while in placement absent evidence demonstrating
that it is not in the best interest of the juvenile or protective of the community to do so.
The bundling of residential services and educational services should not be permitted
without a court order authorizing such.

       For release of information to school, see Rule 163.

       For educational stability of juvenile when removed from home, see Rule
148.

        Pursuant to paragraph (B), the juvenile probation office is required to provide
notice to the building principal or his or her designee for maintaining court records
separately from official school records. Some school districts have established local
policies relating to the receipt of this information that requires the information to be
provided to a school district official other than a building principal. That individual
should be regarded as the building principal’s designee with respect to the provisions of
this rule.

RULE 195. POWERS, DUTIES, AND TRAINING OF A JUVENILE PROBATION
OFFICER

   imposed by the court, a juvenile probation officer shall:

      1)   take children, juveniles, and minors into custody pursuant to:

                  seq.;

            c)    a bench warrant as set forth in Rules 140, 141, and 1140; or

            d)    Rule 1202;

      2)   authorize detention or shelter care for a juvenile, and the shelter care of a
           child, pursuant to 42 Pa.C.S. §§ 6304, 6325, or 6331;

      3)   receive and examine written allegations unless the District Attorney has
           elected to receive and approve all written allegations pursuant to Rule

      4)   make appropriate referrals for informal adjustment, consent decree, or other
           diversionary programs;

        12) report suspected child abuse pursuant to 23 Pa.C.S. § 6311; [and]

        13) receive allegations that a child has failed to satisfy penalties for
            violating compulsory school attendance, as permitted by local rule;
            and

        [13]14) perform any other functions as designated by the court.

 B. Limitations on [p]Powers and [d]Duties. The President Judge of each judicial
    district may limit the power and duties of its juvenile probation officers by local rule.

 C. Training. [No later than January 1, 2012 or w]Within 180 days after being
    appointed or employed, a juvenile probation officer shall be trained on:

        1)   the Juvenile Act;

        2)   the Pennsylvania Rules of Juvenile Court Procedure;

        3)   the Child Protective Services Law (CPSL); and

        4)   any local procedures.

                                         Comment

        Pursuant to paragraph (A)(1), a juvenile probation officer has the authority to take
 children, juveniles, and minors into custody pursuant to the Juvenile Act, the CPSL, a
 bench warrant, or Rule 1202. 23 Pa.C.S. §§ 6301 et seq. and 42 Pa.C.S. §§ 6301 et
 seq.

        When a juvenile is under the court’s supervision, the juvenile probation officer
may take a juvenile into custody pursuant to the Juvenile Act, 42 Pa.C.S. §§ 6304(a)(3)
and (5) and 6324(1) through (5), and bench warrants as set forth in Rules 140, 141, and
1140.



                                              5
        When a child, juvenile, or minor is not under the court’s supervision, the juvenile
 probation officer, as a duly authorized officer, may take a child, juvenile, or minor into
 custody pursuant to the Child Protective Services Law (CPSL), 23 Pa.C.S. § 6315 and
 the Juvenile Act, 42 Pa.C.S. §§ 6304(a)(3) and (5) and 6324(1), (3), and (4).

        A properly commissioned juvenile probation officer is vested with all the powers
and duties as set forth in 42 Pa.C.S. § 6304 and the power to take a child into protective
custody as a duly authorized officer of the court pursuant to 42 Pa.C.S. § 6324 unless
the President Judge has limited such authority pursuant to paragraph (B).

        The President Judge may adopt a local rule, pursuant to the procedures of Rule
121 and Pa.R.J.A. No. 103(d), limiting the authority granted by the commission to
juvenile probation officers. In determining whether to limit the authority of juvenile
probation officers, the President Judge should consider the training and experience
necessary to perform the various duties as provided in this rule. For example, the
President Judge may choose to prohibit juvenile probation officers from taking a child into
protective custody who is believed to be in imminent danger from his or her
surroundings, but who is not under the court’s supervision as a delinquent or dependent
child. See 42 Pa.C.S. § 6324.

       In situations when a juvenile probation officer takes a child into protective
 custody who is in imminent danger from his or her surroundings pursuant to 42 Pa.C.S.
 § 6325, 23 Pa.C.S. § 6315, and Rule 1202, the juvenile probation officer should take the
 appropriate steps to ensure the child’s safety, immediately contact the county agency,
 and document for the county agency the circumstances which necessitated protective
 custody. See Rule 1202 and its Comment.

        The juvenile probation officer may also supervise or assist a child placed in his or
 her protective supervision or care by the court. See 42 Pa.C.S. § 6304.

        Pursuant to paragraph (A)(3), the juvenile probation officer is to receive written
 allegations from local law enforcement agencies to determine if a case may proceed to
 juvenile court. However, pursuant to Rule 231(B), the District Attorney of any county
 may require initial receipt and approval of written allegations before a delinquency
 proceeding may be commenced. See Rule 231(B).

        Pursuant to paragraph (A)(6) and (7), the juvenile probation officer is to prepare
 reports compiling the juvenile’s information for the court and make the necessary
 referrals to programs supported by a need revealed during the investigation.

       Pursuant to paragraph (A)(8), the juvenile probation officer is to communicate the
 information to all parties before approaching the court. See Rule 136 for ex parte
 communication.

                                              6
        Pursuant to paragraph (A)(11), the juvenile probation officer is to oversee all
juveniles ordered to placement facilities. Juvenile probation officers should visit all
juveniles in placement facilities on a regular basis to determine if: 1) the juvenile is
receiving the appropriate treatment; and 2) the facility is meeting the needs of the child.
The Juvenile Court Judges’ Commission Standards Governing Aftercare Services
recommend that all juveniles be visited on a monthly basis. The juvenile probation
officer is to report any irregularities or controversies to the court and all parties as soon
as they are made known to the juvenile probation officer.

      Pursuant to paragraph (A)(13), the President Judge may adopt a local rule
to permit the juvenile probation office to receive allegations that a child has failed
to pay fines or costs related to a truancy conviction. See 24 P.S. §13-1333.3(f)(2).
Nothing in this paragraph is intended to preclude the use of diversionary
programs to address the nonpayment of fines or costs.

       Pursuant to paragraph (A)([13]14), a juvenile probation officer may perform any
other function designated by the court to carry out the purposes of the Juvenile Act.

        Pursuant to paragraph (C), the juvenile probation officer is to be trained in the
Juvenile Act, the Pennsylvania Rules of Juvenile Court Procedure, the CPSL, and any
local procedures. The training is to occur within 180 days of the juvenile probation
officer’s appointment or employment. It is best practice for juvenile probation officers to
receive training within the first ninety days of employment. It is also best practice that
juvenile probation officers receive specialized training and educational updates on a
continuing basis.

     Specialized training for juvenile probation officers should include delinquency and
dependency procedures and areas that address their duties as officers of the court.

                consistent with 42 Pa.C.S. §§ 6301 and 6352, including why the court
                found that the out-of-home placement ordered is the least restrictive
                type of placement that is consistent with the protection of the public
                and best suited to the juvenile’s treatment, supervision, rehabilitation,

RULE 1147. EDUCATIONAL DECISION MAKER[.]

A. Generally. At any proceeding or upon motion, the court shall appoint an
   educational decision maker for the child if it determines that:

      1) the child has no guardian; or

      2) the court, after notice to the guardian and an opportunity for the guardian to
         be heard, has made a determination that it is in the child’s best interest to limit
         the guardian’s right to make decisions regarding the child’s education.

B. Notice of hearings. The educational decision maker shall receive notice of all
   proceedings.

C. Duties and responsibilities. The educational decision maker shall:

      1) make appropriate inquiries and take appropriate actions to ensure that:

             a) issues concerning the child’s educational stability are addressed;

             b) school discipline matters are addressed;

             c) the child is receiving appropriate education that will allow the child to
                meet state standards, including any necessary services concerning
                special education in the least restrictive environment, or remedial
                services;

             d) the child, who is [sixteen] fourteen years of age or older, is receiving
                the necessary educational services to transition to [independent
                living] successful adulthood;

             e) the child, who is receiving services concerning special education, is
                engaged in transition planning with the school entity beginning no later
                than the school year in which the child turns fourteen; and

             f) the child, who is aging out of care within ninety days, has a transition
                plan that addresses the child’s educational needs, and if applicable,
                the plan is coordinated with the child’s transition planning concerning
                special education under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act.

      2) address the child’s educational needs by:



                                            12
              a) meeting with the child at least once and as often as necessary to make
                 decisions regarding education that are in the child’s best interests [of
                 the child];

              b) participating in special education and other meetings, and making
                 decisions regarding all matters affecting the child’s educational needs
                 in a manner consistent with the child’s best interests;

              c) making any specific recommendations to the court relating to:

                     i) the timeliness and appropriateness of the child’s educational
                        placement;

                     ii) the timeliness and appropriateness of the child’s transitional
                         planning; and

                     iii) services necessary to address the child’s educational needs;

              d) appearing and testifying at court hearings when necessary; and

              e) having knowledge and skills that ensure adequate representation of
                 the child.

                                        Comment

       A child in dependent care is to have a clearly identified, legally authorized
educational decision maker. This is a particular concern for highly mobile children
whose caregivers may change and whose guardian may be unavailable. An
educational decision maker’s responsibilities may include, but are not limited to:
ensuring educational stability as mandated by 42 U.S.C. §§ 675(1)(G) and 11431 et
seq.; ensuring prompt enrollment in a new school as required pursuant to 22 Pa. Code
§ 11.11(b); facilitating access to a full range of school programs; advocating for the child
in school discipline matters; ensuring meaningful transition planning as required by 42
Pa.C.S. § 6351 and 42 U.S.C. § 675(5)(H); and for a child eligible for special education,
ensuring access to appropriate services including transition planning beginning no later
than age fourteen. See 24 P.S. §§ 13-1371, 13-1372, 20 U.S.C. §§ 1400 et seq. See
paragraph (A) and (C).

       An educational decision maker appointed pursuant to this rule who represents a
child who is also adjudicated delinquent is to review Rule 147.

      A court is not to appoint an educational decision maker if there is a parent,
guardian, or other authorized person (e.g., foster parent, relative with whom the child

                                            13
lives or surrogate parent appointed under the IDEA) who is competent, willing, and
available to make decisions regarding the child’s education and who is acting in the
child’s best interest regarding all educational matters. See Individuals with Disabilities
Education Act (“IDEA”), 20 U.S.C. §§ 1400 et seq. (2004). A court should limit the
authority of a parent to make decisions regarding education only to the extent
necessary to protect the child’s interest and can reinstate the parent or change the
educational decision maker at any time.

        Unless limited by the court in its appointment order, an educational decision
maker: 1) is responsible for making all decisions concerning education, including special
education, for the child; and 2) can consent to or prohibit the release of information from
the child’s school records as a parent in accordance with the Family Educational Rights
and Privacy Act, 20 U.S.C. § 1232g and 34 C.F.R. § 99.3 (1974). The educational
decision maker may be a family member, a family friend, a mentor, a foster parent, a
former foster parent, a Court Appointed Special Advocate, or, if an educational decision
maker for special education is not needed, a child welfare professional. Except as
otherwise provided by the IDEA, it is within the discretion of the court to appoint an
educational decision maker and whom to appoint. In all cases, however, an educational
decision maker appointed by the court should be familiar with a child’s educational
rights or is to agree to be trained regarding these issues.

       If the child is or may be eligible for special education, an educational decision
maker is to be appointed in accordance with the standards and procedures set forth in
federal and state laws concerning special education. See IDEA, 20 U.S.C. §§ 1400,
1401(23), and 1415(b)(2); 34 C.F.R. §§ 300.30, 300.45, and 300.519. The IDEA
recognizes a court’s authority to appoint persons to make decisions concerning special
education for a child. However, such decision makers cannot be the State or
employees of any agency that is involved in the education or care of the child. 34
C.F.R. §300.519(c), (d)(2)(i).

        The educational decision maker should refer to the Fostering Connections to
Success and Increasing Adoptions Act of 2008 (P.L. 110-351) and the McKinney-Vento
Homeless Assistance Act, 42 U.S.C. §§ 11431 et seq. (1989) for guidance in
educational stability. Specifically, the educational decision maker is to: a) ensure the
right to remain in the same school regardless of a change in placement when it is in the
child’s best interest; b) facilitate immediate enrollment in a new school when a school
change is in the child’s best interest; and c) ensure that school proximity is considered
in all placement changes, 42 U.S.C. §§ 675(1)(G) and 11431 et seq.

       The educational decision maker is to also ensure: a) that the child receives an
appropriate education, including, as applicable, any necessary special education, early
intervention, or remedial services; see 24 P.S. §§ 13-1371, 13-1372, 55 Pa. Code §
3130.87, 20 U.S.C. §§ 1400 et seq.; b) that the child receives educational services

                                            14
necessary to support the child’s transition to [independent living pursuant to 42
Pa.C.S. § 6351] successful adulthood if the child is [sixteen] fourteen or older
pursuant to 42 Pa.C.S. § 6351(F)(8); and c) that the educational decision maker
participates in the development of a transition plan that addresses the child’s
educational needs pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 675(5)(H) if the child will age out of care
within ninety days.

       The authority of the court to appoint an educational decision maker is derived
from the broad powers of the court to issue orders that “provide for the care, protection,
safety, and wholesome mental and physical development of children.” 42 Pa.C.S. §
6301(b)(1.1). The IDEA also requires that each child who is eligible for special
education has an active parent or other identified person who can participate in the
process concerning special education. See IDEA, 20 U.S.C. §§ 1401(23) and
1415(b)(2); 34 C.F.R. §§ 300.30, 300.45, and 300.519.

RULE 1148. EDUCATIONAL STABILITY & PLACEMENT

A. General Rule. Any order resulting in the placement of a child or a change in
   placement shall address the educational stability of the child.

B. School of Origin. A child in placement shall remain in their school of origin unless
   the court finds remaining in the school of origin is not in the child’s best interest. If
   the court finds that it is not in the best interest of the child to remain in the school of
   origin, then the court may order the child to be enrolled in another school that best
   meets the child’s needs.

C. Another School. If a court orders the child to be enrolled in another school
   pursuant to paragraph (B), then the child shall attend a public school unless the
   court finds that a public school is not in the best interest of the child.

                                         Comment

        This rule is intended to apply at any point in a dependency proceeding when the
child is in placement, including pre-dispositional placement and post-dispositional
modification of a dependent child’s placement. This rule is intended to complement
rather than supersede the requirements of Rule 1512(D)(1)(i).

        In paragraph (B), the best interest determination should be based on factors
including the appropriateness of the current educational setting considering the child’s
needs and the proximity of the school of origin relative to the placement location. This
paragraph is not intended to usurp the administrative process contemplated by the
Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965, as amended, 20 U.S.C. §
6311(g)(1)(E). This paragraph is intended to facilitate educational stability while the
child remains under the jurisdiction of the Juvenile Court and to codify the presumption
that a child is to remain in their school of origin absent evidence that it is not in the
child’s best interest to do so.

        In paragraph (C), circumstances indicating that it may not be in the best interest
for the child to attend a public school include the security and safety of the child and
treatment needs. Paragraph (C) is intended to codify the presumption that a child is to
attend public school while in placement absent evidence demonstrating that it is not in
the best interest of the child to do so. The bundling of residential services and
educational services should not be permitted without a court order authorizing such.

      A court may consider an Individualized Education Program, Service Agreement,
or administrative determination in making findings pursuant to this Rule.
