This power point includes: 1. A description of each indicator; 2. The SPP targets for each year and whether our State met the targets; 3. Any additional pertinent information related to the indicator (if applicable); 4. A list of some of the improvement activities included in the States SPP/APR for the indicator;

General Supervision Indicator 15: The States general supervision system (including monitoring, complaints, hearings, etc.) identifies and corrects noncompliance as soon as possible, but in no case later than one year from identification. (20 U.S.C (a)(3)(B)) Data for this indicator are collected and maintained by OSPIs special education department.

Impact on Determinations Indicators 15 and 20 are both compliance indicators. District performance related to indicator 15 will impact a districts determination level with regard to criteria 2 (timely correction of non-compliance). District performance related to indicator 20 will impact a districts determination level with regard to criteria 3 (timely and accurate data). See the next three slides for more information…

Determination Criteria 2 – Timely Correction of Non-compliance DescriptionDetermination Level If OSPI determined that non-compliance existed in the district with regard to indicator 15, the district corrected the non-compliance in a timely manner. (Note: this non-compliance would be any area of procedural compliance that is not tied directly to one of the other 19 performance indicators). 1 (Meets Requirements) The district corrected the identified non- compliance related to indicator 15, but did not complete the corrections within one year of notification. 3 (Needs Intervention) The district did not correct the identified non- compliance related to indicator 15 – uncorrected non-compliance still exists in the district. 4 (Needs Substantial Intervention) Note: There are no determination level 2 criteria for this indicator.

Determination Criteria 3 – Timely and Accurate Data The data report must be both accurate and submitted on or before the required due date shown on the previous slide. DescriptionDetermination Level All of the required reports were on time and accurate. 1 (Meets Requirements) 4, 5, or 6 of the 7 reports were on time and accurate. 2 (Needs Assistance) 1, 2, or 3 of the 7 reports were on time and accurate. 3 (Needs Intervention) None of the reports were on time and accurate. 4 (Needs Substantial Intervention)
