The Part B State Performance Plan/Annual Performance Report 2019 Indicator Analyses presents a national quantitative picture of the implementation of Part B of IDEA based on a review of information 60 states and jurisdictions reported in the FFY 2017 APRs and amended SPPs they submitted to OSEP in spring 2019.

This Version 2.0 of the Data Display Wizard creates data displays based on user entry of SPP/APR data. The tool gives users various options for displaying that data. LA staff can use this tool to engage with various stakeholders on how to best display reported SPP/APR data based on the audience, message, and purpose of the desired report or presentation.

This session highlighted Florida and New Jersey as presenters. They told their states' stories of how they have created a culture of high-quality data.

This workshop explored the benefits of documenting MOE Reduction and CEIS processes for collecting and submitting data to OSEP. Presenters described some of the common challenges that SEAs face with these data. States shared the steps in their processes, who is responsible for the processes, what methodologies they use to collect and review data, and how they consistently validate and report the data.

This session covered the requirements to report the data, challenges for collecting the data, and resources available to help states with their MOE and CEIS data collection and submission. Presenters introduced several resources that states and LEAs can use to enhance the data collection and submission process.

The CEIS Practice Guide provides two scenarios each for voluntary CEIS and comprehensive CEIS. Each scenario describes an LEA’s implementation of voluntary or comprehensive CEIS and how the LEA or state could track the amount LEAs reserved for voluntary or comprehensive CEIS, the activities conducted using IDEA funds for voluntary or comprehensive CEIS, the target group of students, and ongoing student-level data about special education services. IDC and CIFR collaborated to develop the practice guide.

The IDEA Part C Confidentiality Checklist outlines the various confidentiality provisions of IDEA law in an easy-to-understand format in order to support agencies in complying with privacy and confidentiality provisions under IDEA Part C. The checklist also provides a means for documenting implementation practices states may need to follow or actions they may need to take to implement or improve implementation of the confidentiality provisions.
