SUMMARY OF THE ISSUE(S)

Section 1116(e)(4)(C) of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) requires the State Educational Agency (SEA) to develop and maintain a list of approved Supplemental Educational Services (SES) providers to provide services to eligible students.

RECOMMENDATION

The California Department of Education (CDE) recommends the State Board of Education (SBE) approve local educational agencies (LEAs) identified for improvement or corrective action as SES providers based on appeal for a two-year period beginning July 1, 2012, through June 30, 2014. The summary list of LEAs recommended forapproval is provided as Attachment2.

BRIEF HISTORY OF KEY ISSUES

Title I, Part A Section 1116(e)(1) and (4) of the ESEA requires an SES provider be approved by the SBE before offering tutoring services to low-income students attending schools advancing to Program Improvement (PI) Year 2 and beyond. The CDE has established and maintained a list of SBE-approved SES providers since June 2003.

The 34 Code of Federal Regulations (34 CFR)Section 200.47(b)(1)(iv)(A) and (B) prohibits an SEA from approving requests to provide SES services from LEAs identified for improvement or corrective action.However, the SEA may request a waiver of these provisions. A waiver request was submitted to the U.S. Department of Education (ED) on May 2, 2012. On August 17, 2012, ED granted the request for a two-year period. The response letter from ED is provided as Attachment 1.

SUMMARYOF PREVIOUS STATE BOARD OF EDUCATION DISCUSSION AND ACTION

At its July 2011 and January 2012 meetings, the SBE approved 21 PI LEAs based on an approved waiver of 34 CFR Section 200.47(b)(1)(iv)(A) and (B) granted for the 2011–12 school year.

At its January 2010 meeting, the SBE approved 14 PI LEAs based on an approved waiver for the 2009–10 school year.
