ESEA Odyssey Conference
The annual ESEA Odyssey Conferences will be held August 16 – 18, 2016 at the Portland Airport Sheraton Hotel in Portland and August 23 – 25, 2016 at the Bend Riverhouse in Bend. Title I, Part D will be featured in one of the breakout sessions during both conferences. For more information, including registration, please visit: http://www.ode.state.or.us/search/page/?id=3914.
Title 1, Part D, Subpart 2 Activity Calendar
Throughout the academic year beginning in August 2016, we will be reaching out through the Odyssey Conference, regular webinars and the Neglected & Delinquent Program Report in order to keep districts up to date on everything pertaining to the Title I-D program. We will be offering professional development and technical assistance on a variety of topics. We have posted a calendar on the ODE website that lists when these activities will take place. In addition, we have included DUE DATES for items like reports and data collections. You can find the Activity Calendar by visiting http://www.ode.state.or.us/search/page/?id=2767.
Title I, Part D, Subpart 2 Monitoring
Over the next two academic years, ODE staff will be conducting program reviews in all school districts receiving funds under Title I, Part D, Subpart 2. A monitoring schedule and the monitoring indicators are posted on the ODE website at: http://www.ode.state.or.us/search/page/?id=2767. The reviews are designed to be as non-intrusive as possible with the objective being to offer on-site technical assistance and to observe the good work being done with the students served through the program. Letters about the program review will be sent to district Superintendents in late July for those districts being reviewed during the 2016 – 17 school year.
Applications, Allocations and Program Evaluations
ODE will be requesting districts that receive funds through the Title I, Part D program to complete an application prior to receiving funds. The application is necessary in order for ODE to release funds to the district. ODE staff has designed the application to answer the key requirements under the federal statute. The application can be found on our website at: http://www.ode.state.or.us/search/page/?id=2767. The application will be due November 7, 2016. When allocations are completed, districts will be able to view them on this web page as well.
ODE is required to collect a periodic evaluation from districts receiving funds under this program. In August 2016, we will be sending data packets to Title I-D Coordinators to help complete the evaluation. A similar evaluation was completed in 2012. The format has not changed. You can find the evaluation materials at: http://www.ode.state.or.us/search/page/?id=2768. The evaluation will be due October 31, 2016.
CIP Budget Narrative
Allocations will be completed soon and then the CIP Budget Narrative will be updated. Districts should be able to begin completing and submitting budget narratives around August 1. Districts need to submit all required prerequisites in order to access the individual program budget narrative functions. Please contact us for assistance.
