38. West Virginia Department of Education Continuous Improvement and Focused Monitoring System Office of Special Programs Vision and Direction  Improve the Monitoring Process  Develop Collaborative Partnerships  Clear Communication  Clear Understanding  Targeted Technical Assistance  Improved outcomes for children with exceptionalities and their families

39. Authority Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act of 2004 States have a responsibility to have a system of general supervision that monitors the implementation of the Individuals with Disabilities Act (IDEA) by local education agencies (LEAs). Section 616. Monitoring, Technical Assistance, and Enforcement Primary Focus of Federal and State Monitoring Activities  Improving educational results and functional outcomes for all children with disabilities; and  Ensuring that States meet the program requirements under this part, with a particular emphasis on those requirements that are most closely related to improving educational results for children with disabilities.

40. Authority West Virginia State Code §18-20-7 The state board shall establish exceptional children program compliance review teams to conduct random unannounced on-site reviews of such programs at least every four years in each county for the purpose of reviewing identification procedures, complying with any or all applicable laws and policies, delivering services, verifying enrollment and attendance reports, recommending changes, and fulfilling such other duties as may be established by the state board.

41. Authority West Virginia Policy 2419: Regulations for the Education of Students with Exceptionalities Chapter 9 General Supervision and Accountability for Performance and Compliance General supervision responsibilities of the WVDE include administration, funding, monitoring and supervision of local education agency (LEA) implementation and implementation of interagency agreements to ensure collaboration among agencies serving students with exceptionalities.

42. Focus Of The Work  The State Performance Plan (SPP) is the basis for West Virginia’s special education general supervision process.  The SPP 20 indicators are established by OSP (14 apply to districts).  The monitoring system is part of the general supervision process.

49. Additional Information on Data Collection (page 4) Data Reviews The OSP reviews data throughout the year. The table below indicates when data are pulled and shared with OSP staff as well as RESA staff. OSP staff reviews state, RESA and district level data by enrollment size groups and/or by RESA region. District level data are used for a variety of purposes including: district selection for targeted technical assistance, selection for onsite reviews, selection for work with RESAs, selection for participation in various initiatives, selection for annual disproportionality and discipline reviews, etc. (see Appendix B for complete listing of Special Education Data Collections and Reports)

50. Agency Status WVDE Data Driven WVDE Data Driven Indicators require an additional review process.

51. Directions for Difficult Indicators (Page 5) SPP 9 and SPP 10 The LEA will implement the following steps as part of the review process. Step 1. Complete the appropriate review form based on the WVDE data determination. Both forms are found under Tab 3 Directions and Forms. Step 2. Based on the results of the LEA review, the LEA determines its compliance status as “met” or “not met”. Step 3. If status is “not met”, an improvement plan must be developed to address the deficiencies. Step 4. Targeted technical assistance will be available through the OSP and RESA to districts that are required to have corrective action plans.

The district special education director may serve as the chairperson. Required members must include: parents; general and special education teachers; principals representing each programmatic level; vocational/technical school representative; Part C personnel; and other individuals at the district’s discretion.

59. Fiscal Management Appendix A The general supervision includes mechanisms to provide oversight in the distribution and use of IDEA funds at the state and local level. Procedures are in place to ensure that fiscal resources are directed to areas needing improvement as noted in the APR. Supervision of fiscal activities also includes a review of required corrective actions as a result of monitoring activities. (see Appendix A)

60. Fiscal Monitoring Information Workbook EXCESS COST/SUPPLEMENT NOT SUPPLANT The LEA uses IDEA funds for the excess cost of special education and related services for students with disabilities. The LEA maintains the same level of expenditure for students with disabilities from year to year (maintenance of effort) to ensure IDEA supplement and do not supplant state and local funds. Policy CitationProbe QuestionsData SourcesAgency Status IDEA, 34 CRF §300.16; §300.202 and §300.203. Does the LEA spend the calculated per pupil amount spent for all students, displayed in the Excess Cost screen within the Five Year Online Strategic Plan, for the education of students with disabilities before it spends IDEA funds? Are IDEA funds expended in such a manner to supplement and not supplant state/ local funds expended for students with disabilities?

88. Pursuant to section 616(a)(1)(C)(i) of the IDEA and 34 CRF §300.600(a), and approved by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), States are required to make “Determinations” annually under section 616(d) on the performance of LEA/EIS programs.

89. States MUST Consider  Performance on compliance indicators;  Whether data submitted by LEAs/EIS programs is valid, reliable, and timely;  Uncorrected noncompliance from other sources; and  Any audit findings.

90. States MAY Consider  Performance on performance indicators; and  Other information.

100. Enforcement  cease funding for all subsequent years until deficiencies are corrected, if the district is currently involved in a grant program maintained by the WVDE;  request an audit be conducted of the district’s financial records;  direct the administration of the district’s special education services;  fine the district on a daily and/or monthly basis until deficiencies are corrected;  refer district to the OEPA for consideration of accreditation status; and/or  file independent action against the superintendent’s licensure, citing negligence in carrying out his/her duties.
