2.  The Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) requires equitable services to be provided to private schools.  Why? Federal programs are supported by tax dollars, therefore all children and teachers are eligible to access these programs. 2

3.  The school district must notify the private school of the opportunity.  Best Practice:  The private school can complete and submit a consultation form.  KDE has developed a template that districts may use during the consultation process. It’s located on the KDE website. 3

4. Consultation is a collaborative process between the Title II, Part A coordinator and the private school official(s )

5.  Identifies professional learning (PL) needs  Addresses how the needs are identified  Outlines the professional learning activities

6.  No public funds are distributed to private schools, only services.  These services must be supplemental, secular, neutral, and non-ideological. 6

7.  Improving knowledge and skills of teachers and staff in core academic subjects  Effective instructional strategies, methods, and skills  Integrating technology into curricula 7

9.  Professional learning must align to the needs of the private school educators.  Professional learning must be around core academic subjects.  Professional learning can include conferences. 9

10.  PL materials may be purchased with funds if they are reasonable and necessary.  No materials may be purchased for student use.

11.  Indicate the impact of the professional development activities  Identify data sources to measure the effectiveness of the PL

12.  The school district shall maintain the following documents for their records:  Notification letter  Consultation and planning process  Assessment of needs  Evaluation of the program

13. A formula is used to determine private school services based on an equitable per pupil rate. The district must reserve no less than this amount of their Title II Part A grant. This formula determines an amount for budgeting purposes and should not be viewed as an allocation.

14. Step 1: Public Enrollment Participating PNP/Private Total Enrollment (previous year) Enrollment (previous year) 1303 + 50_ = _ 1353_

15. School Dist. Enrollment Participating PNP/Private Total Enrollment (previous year ) Enrollment (previous year) 1303 + _ 50_ = _ 1353_ Step 2: Title II Dist. PD Amt. or Total Enrollment Per Pupil Amt. Eisenhower Amt. (which ever is greater) $ 49,706 ÷ _1353 = _36.7376_ (Carry 4 decimal places)

16. School Dist. Enrollment Participating PNP/Private Total Enrollment (previous year ) Enrollment (previous year) 1303 + _ 50_ = _ 1353_ Title II Dist. PD Amt. or Total Enrollment Per Pupil Amt. Eisenhower Amt. (which ever is greater) $ 49,706 ÷ _1353 = _36.7376_ (Carry 4 decimal places) Step 3: Per Pupil Allocation Participating PNP Total Private Allocation Enrollment $ 36.7376 x _ 2 _ = $73.48_
