2 Monitoring Overview Nazie October 15, 2018

3 Purpose of this Monitoring Webinar
Introduce monitoring framework and purpose Orientation on the plans Preparing for monitoring Timeline Preview future years’ plans Answer any remaining questions N

4 Monitoring Update Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) provided an opportunity to review, update, and revamp monitoring processes, protocols, and focus Monitoring Stakeholder Group Meeting and working for past two years Updated and upgraded monitoring process and protocols Aligned with ESSA and Colorado’s ESSA State Plan (approved by U.S. Department of Education in May, 2018) N

5 Purpose Diagram Improved Student Outcomes Improved Implementation
Compliance Strengths Improved Implementation Effective Practice N: Under the ESSA statute, each state educational agency that accepts federal funds is responsible for ensuring compliance with ESSA requirements through monitoring of local educational agencies’ use of funds and implementation of ESSA-funded programs, strategies, and practices. But monitoring also provides us a tremendous opportunity to focus on what matters and that is improved outcomes for students. Therefore, in addition to meeting the statutory requirement to ensure compliance with ESSA, Colorado will be using the monitoring process to Identify and highlight areas of strength and effective implementation within each local educational agency (LEA; includes districts and BOCES) Collaborate with LEAs to implement effective programs and practices to improve outcomes for students Identify exemplary practices within the state to learn from and disseminate

6 Plans Based on Stakeholder Input
Focus efforts on a limited number of high-impact indicators Prioritize a select number of indicators Phase-in indicator categories over time Provide training, guidance, and technical support before monitoring Provide follow-up and follow-through support based on monitoring results Collaboratively build monitoring plans and reports with each LEA N

7 Structure: Three Levels of Review
All LEAs will be randomly selected to be reviewed over the course of the next 6 years Prioritized indicators Desk and phone reviews Annual selection of several (between 10 to 15) LEAs for more focused look at implementation and support Selected based on size of award, newness of staff, or other eligibility criteria (to be discussed in more detail later in this training) Select prioritized indicators aligned to reasons for selection Desk, phone, and possibly onsite reviews Annual selection of a few (2 to 5) LEAs for a very focused review of implementation and continuous support Selected based on school performance Select prioritized indicators Desk, phone, and onsite N

8 Question: What to Call the Levels?
ESSA State Plan refers to universal, targeted, and intensive Stakeholders struggle with those terms At the end of the webinar, we’ll collect a vote on suggested names for each level N

9 Structure: Four Categories of Indicators
Fiscal Meaningful Stakeholder Engagement and Partnership Identification and Delivery of Services Evaluation of Program Impact N

10 Structure: Four Categories of Indicators ~ Phase-in Plans
and Beyond Fiscal Meaningful Stakeholder Engagement and Beyond Identification and Delivery of Services and Beyond Identification and Delivery of Service Evaluation N: To encourage deeper conversations around specific indicators, CDE will monitor 2 categories of indicators in the first year – – fiscal and meaningful stakeholder engagement. In , indicators pertaining to identification of students for supports and services, as well as delivery of those services, will be added. In , indicators pertaining to the evaluation of program effectiveness will be added.

11 Coordinated Monitoring
CDE Partners Collaborating and Coordinating Monitoring Efforts Fiscal requirements and use of funds In collaboration with ESSU and Grants Fiscal Meaningful stakeholder engagement and partnerships, including stakeholder engagement in various processes such as CS improvement planning, equitable services, etc. In collaboration with UIP and Parent and Family Engagement Coordinator Identification and delivery of services (implementation) aligned back to the needs assessment, and for schools identified for support and improvement aligned to reasons for identification In collaboration with CLDE, Homeless, Dropout Prevention, School and District Improvement, and other units that provide supports and services Local Evaluation of program impact Training resources are being built in collaboration with REL N: Unit of Federal Programs Admin has been and will continue to coordinate monitoring efforts with other CDE units, to Minimize burden on LEAs Submitted evidence will be used to meet multiple indicators and for multiple programs/funding sources (e.g., ESSA and IDEA) Allow districts to decide whether CDE units should visit together or separately (if visiting in the same year) Provide coordinated follow up support for implementing any follow up or follow through actions required as a result of monitoring

13 *Intensive* (Desk, Phone, and Onsite) Reviews and Support: Compliance, Implementation, and Program Effectiveness Selection Criteria LEAs with 3+ and more than 10 percent of their schools identified for comprehensive (CS) support and improvement this year (in the future it will be high number and percentage of CS and TS) Purpose Check for compliance with ESSA and implementation of effective or evidence-based interventions, strategies, programs to improve student outcomes Support LEAs and schools with improvement efforts Ensure reasons for ESSA identification are addressed, student performance is improving, and the school(s) can exit improvement status Ensure there is equitable distribution of resources to minimize opportunity gaps for historically underserved students Identify exemplary practices Process Multi-year relationship and ongoing support Onsite visit (1.5-2 days) that builds on universal and targeted reviews and high leverage indicators J Collaboration with CLDE, Drop Out Prevention, Homeless,

14 *Intensive* Reviews Select 3-5 per year Timeline
Will not be reselected for another 5 years but will receive ongoing support, universal and possibly targeted monitoring Timeline January – May ~ onsite visits 7+ days of work (pre-, during, and post-visit); multi-years of ongoing support, in collaboration with other CDE units 30 days after visit ~ reports Subsequent year ~ follow up support 3 districts and Beyond Select new LEAs that meet the criteria, not previously selected J 45 calendar days to receive docs and 45 to publish report. CDE is estimating the number of days to prepare and conduct the onsite visit; we will be tracking time, effort, and expenses associated with onsite visits for both the LEA and CDE to be able to provide that information with LEAs in the future.

15 *Targeted* (Desk, Phone, and Onsite) Reviews: Compliance and Implementation
Selection Criteria Annual fiscal, programmatic, & accountability risk assessment Purpose Ensure compliance with ESSA and implementation of effective or evidence-based interventions, strategies, programs to improve student outcomes Ensure that LEAs address any potential risks that might hinder their performance Ensure that the schools identified for ESSA improvement are addressing reasons for id, improving student outcomes, and are moving towards exiting status If have CS or ATS schools, equitable distribution of resources; minimizing opportunity gaps for historically underserved students Identify exemplary practices Process Multi-year relationship and ongoing support Mostly desk and phone reviews, with meetings that occur during other events (e.g., CFS site visit, RNM in the area, Cons App planning meeting) J

16 Selection Criteria for Targeted Review
Admin criteria Date of last monitoring visit Turnover in district personnel Fiscal criteria Maintenance of Effort Audits & Corrective Actions Size of the Award Reverting Funds/Excess Carryover Suspended-Terminated Grants Comparability Late Fiscal Reporting Accountability and program criteria # and % of the LEA’s schools that have been identified for ESSA improvement & support Non-compliance with equitable distribution of services to non-public schools Inequitable distribution of teachers based on CDE analyses Non-compliance with supplement, not supplant provisions of Title I, Part A Unauthorized delay in submittal of the LEA’s Consolidated Application (excludes any late submissions based on delays in the system and/or deadline extensions awarded by CDE) Non-compliance with universal indicators from the previous year’s desk review (first identification to occur in based on spring 2019 desk review results) J
