Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP)
• AYP information has been determined;
• Schools that were Identified last year and didn’t make AYP this year will continue to engage in AYP activities according to their level of Identification (formerly called “Phases”).
![Page 5: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)

AYP
• Schools that were Identified last year and made AYP for the first time must still engage in AYP activities during the 2011-12 academic year
• Schools will “hold” or be considered “in delay” at the current level of Identification
![Page 6: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

This is true because…
NCLB requires schools to meet AYP for two consecutive years to be released from AYP requirements.

Parental Notification Letter
• The letter explained that eligible students may be able to receive free tutoring
(eligible = enrolled and free/reduced lunch)
![Page 22: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

SES Letter
• Identified all SES providers approved to serve the district
www.michigan.gov/mde-ses
2011-2012 Approved SES Providers by District
![Page 23: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

SES Letter
•Included a description of services, qualifications and demonstrated record of effectiveness of providers
www.michigan.gov/mde-ses2009-10 Extended Provider Profiles
![Page 24: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
24
Why 2009-10 provider data?
• We use the 2009-10 evaluation results because the 2010-11 evaluation will not be completed for some time;
• Why? Because services for 10-11 extended into the summer.
![Page 25: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
25
SES Letter
• Described procedures and timelines that parents must follow in selecting a provider
• Explained how the LEA will prioritize if there are not sufficient funds to serve all eligible students (lowest achieving students get services first)
![Page 26: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
26
Reminder
• All students that qualify for free and reduced lunch in the identified building must be offered the opportunity to receive SES
• Individual student achievement does not come into play unless the demand for services exceeds the funds to pay for it
![Page 27: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
27
Reminder
• SES must be offered to eligible students in all grades in the identified building. You may not only offer SES to students in the grades that took the test.
• For example, all eligible 9th-12th graders in an identified high school are offered SES, not the just the 9th and 11th grade students.
![Page 28: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)

SES Per-Student Amount
• Changes in the Title I Regulations now require the states to calculate and post this information
• This information is available at www.michigan.gov/mde-ses
![Page 30: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)

![Page 31: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
31
What Do We Do Next?
• Fulfill your Choice/Transfer requests
• Determine how much of the 20% is remaining
![Page 32: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
32
How Much for SES?
20% set-aside = $200,000Choice/Transfer = $50,000
$200,000 - $50,000 = $150,000 for SES(Insert the numbers for your LEA)
![Page 33: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
33
How Many Students?
• Determine how many students can be served:Remaining set-aside ÷ per student allocation = number of students who can receive SES
![Page 34: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
34
Example
$150,000 ÷ $2,000 = 75 students
(Insert the numbers for your LEA)
![Page 35: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)

36
Enrolling Students in SES
• Parents must have at least 30 days to enroll

37
New in 2009
• The Title I Regulations now require districts to have two “separate and distinct” enrollment windows for SES
• The district decides when this will happen (i.e. fall/early winter, fall/spring, fall/summer, etc.)
![Page 38: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
38
Enrolling Students in SES
• You may use last year’s free & reduced lunch info for 30 operating days after the school year starts
• New free & reduced status is effective upon approval of application
![Page 39: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)

42
Enrollment – Suggestions
• Include a parental consent line on the supplemental educational services application form, so that parents can provide consent to share information with providers at the same time that they express their interest in receiving services
![Page 43: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
43
Enrollment - Suggestions
• Ask providers to give the LEA stamped envelopes containing information about the program to be mailed by the LEA to parents of eligible students. Before doing so, the LEA could let the provider know how many students are eligible, but not the names.
![Page 44: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
44
Enrollment - Suggestions
• Give providers “directory information” on all students in the school district (whose parents have not opted out of “directory information”) and allow providers to send a mailing to all parents of students in the district.
![Page 45: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)

![Page 73: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)

Clarification from Washington
• On August 20th, 2008, The United States Department of Education (USED) sent the following to the state education agencies:
![Page 74: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)
74
Federal Policy
The LEA is responsible for the creation of the ILP. The LEA may request that providers conduct the ILP process, but the LEA retains final responsibility for completing the ILP.
![Page 75: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
75
Parent signature
LEAs may not use the lack of a parent signature on the ILP as grounds to deny SES to any child whose parents have otherwise requested services.
![Page 76: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)
76
Federal Policy- Consultation
Consultation with parents in creating the ILP is an integral part of the process. The LEA is responsible for contacting the parent for participation in creation of the ILP. The LEA may request that providers consult with the parents to create the ILP, but the LEA retains final responsibility for the parent consultation.
![Page 77: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/77.jpg)
77
Federal Policy -Consultation
However, LEAs may not use the lack of parent involvement in the creation and or approval of the ILP as grounds to deny SES to any child whose parents have otherwise requested services.
![Page 78: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/78.jpg)
Federal Policy -Consultation
• LEAs and Providers, if delegated responsibility for ILP development, must document efforts to engage parents in the ILP process and to obtain signatures.

Computers & Handheld Technology
The Federal policy letter of August 20, 2008, also contained the following:
![Page 81: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/81.jpg)
81
Computers & Handheld Technology
Technology based providers (those using the internet or other technological means to tutor) may supply students with computers or other equipment to facilitate tutoring.
![Page 82: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/82.jpg)
82
Computers & Handheld Technology
• Students may keep the computers at the completion of tutoring if the primary purpose of those computers is instructional.
• If the primary use of the computers is not instructional, they are not allowable under state policy and are considered incentives.
![Page 83: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/83.jpg)
83
MDE Policy
• MDE policy reflects the Federal Policy• Contact MDE for a copy• Providers may NOT promote the fact
that students may keep computers as inducement to students and parents to enroll with the provider
![Page 84: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/84.jpg)
84
Important!
• Districts/PSAs should establish written guidelines for SES providers
• Include in your contracts for providers to sign (as an addendum)
![Page 85: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/85.jpg)
85
Important!
• Specific billing/invoicing requirements should be included in contracts with providers
• Required supporting documentation to be submitted with invoices should be articulated in the contract and/or procedures of the district for providers
![Page 86: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/86.jpg)
86
However…
• LEAs may not impose requirements that relate to whether a provider has an effective educational program
• Under no circumstances may an LEA refuse to offer as an option to parents any provider on the State-approved list because of program design concerns
![Page 87: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/87.jpg)
87
However…
• an LEA may not require an additional approval or impose additional program design requirements, except the requirement to abide by applicable local health, safety, and civil rights laws
![Page 88: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/88.jpg)
88
A Note About Contracts…
Two basic models LEAs use (offered as a suggestion):
![Page 89: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/89.jpg)
89
Model 1: wait for enrollment
• Wait for return of tutor selection/enrollment forms
• Offer contracts only to providers that actually have students signed up for services
![Page 90: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/90.jpg)
90
Model 2: Offer to all
• Offer SES contracts to all providers that indicated they would serve your district/PSA
• Include language to the effect “if no students sign up for services with your company… the SES contract is null and void”
![Page 91: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/91.jpg)
91
Timeline for Services
Services should begin by November 1st and continue until each student’s allocation is exhausted, or the end of the school year
![Page 92: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/92.jpg)
92
Attendance/Invoices
Contracts should contain information on proper procedures for collecting student attendance and submitting invoices
![Page 93: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/93.jpg)
93
Attendance/Invoices
• MDE suggests prescriptive language detailing the timelines and procedures for the submission of attendance and invoice documents
• It is better to have frequent invoices rather than receiving a $150,000 bill at the cessation of 3 or 4 months of service
![Page 94: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/94.jpg)
94
Attendance/Invoices
MDE also suggests including contractual language that stipulates invoices may not be paid if providers fail to follow district/PSA procedures.
![Page 95: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/95.jpg)
95
Hourly Rate
• Providers may not charge more than the maximum hourly rate specified in the application
• LEAs may negotiate lower hourly rates• These rates have been sent to LEAs-
included in the Provider List
![Page 96: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/96.jpg)
96
Hourly Rate
• Districts MAY NOT cap the hourly rate for providers. The provider rate is approved by the State.
• Districts must honor the hourly rate unless they NEGOTIATE a lower rate with providers
![Page 97: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/97.jpg)
NOTE:
• Some corporate providers are approved using multiple “Entity” names and must be treated as separate entities
• These entities may be approved to serve different grade levels, special populations, e.g. ELL, or at different reimbursement rates or using Internet technology
97
![Page 98: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/98.jpg)
98
Building Use
LEAs may allow providers in the school building, either free of charge or for a reasonable fee.
![Page 99: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/99.jpg)
99
Building Use
• Use of the school building by SES providers must be on the same basis and terms as is available to other groups that seek access to the school
• No preference may be given to any provider
![Page 100: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/100.jpg)
100
Building Use
• If many providers are approved to serve an LEA, or if other after-school programs are housed in the LEA’s schools, it may not be possible to have all providers use school buildings
![Page 101: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/101.jpg)
101
Building Use
In this case, the LEA should select providers to operate on-site in a manner that is fair, transparent, and objective (i.e. publicly observed lottery or other random selection process).
![Page 102: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/102.jpg)
102
Building Use
MDE recommends that alternate SES providers be selected to serve in buildings in the event that the first selected provider fails to utilize the building as planned.
![Page 103: Supplemental Educational Services](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815b62550346895dc94a0d/html5/thumbnails/103.jpg)
