Results-based Monitoring Purpose: To monitor and support districts in the implementation of IDEA & ESEA programs that improve outcomes for students, while recognizing continuous improvement is necessary. • Shifting our focus from COMPLIANCE to PERFORMANCE
Process Overview • Why a results-based monitoring tool? • Shifts focus from compliance to program effectiveness • Encourages collaborative conversations around district programs • Provides a better understanding of successes and challenges • How is the results-based monitoring tool organized? • Based on factors influencing student outcomes • Combines IDEA & ESEA monitoring items • Adds an Improvement Plan focusing on suggested strategies to increase student outcomes • Includes a Compliance Action Plan
Process Overview • Who is the Monitoring team? • Lead: CPM Regional Consultant • CPM Regional Consultant • Staff representing Special Education and other critical subgroups and other areas (EL, non-public, etc.) • Fiscal consultants when needed • CPM Nashville staff when needed
Monitoring Process Overview • Step 1. TDOE identifies LEAs based on risk and notifies selected LEAs • Step 2. Data collection • TDOE gathers assessment and growth data on districts and schools by proficiency levels, subjects and subgroups (SWD, ED, etc.) • TDOE reviews LEA consolidated application and budget for ESEA and IDEA • TDOE reviews LEA strategic plan • TDOE requests LEA upload specific items
Monitoring Process Overview • Step 3. TDOE selects schools based upon school assessment results and other factors • At least two schools are selected for a two hour onsite visit • Additional sites such as a preschool, non-public school, or program maybe also be selected • Step 4. Phone call between TDOE and LEA to explain the process and clarify expectations • TDOE wants to see and hear about day-to-day procedures • LEA and School interviews • Note: Preparing boxes of information is not necessary • Agenda is negotiated with the LEA
Monitoring Process Overview • Step 5.On-site visit approximately 3.5 days • Entrance meeting (approximately one hour) with the district leadership and other relevant staff to review district strategic plan, initiatives, best practices, challenges, etc. • Meetings with ESEA Director, IDEA Supervisor and program staff • School visit schedules • Time slots for TDOE to write comments and final report (at least two) • Review and modify final report with ESEA Director, IDEA Supervisor • Exit Conference with LEA leadership
Monitoring Process Overview • Step 6. Written Comments, Improvement Plan, Compliance Plan and LEA Letter • Prior to the exit conference, the results-based monitoring comments are drafted • The Improvement Plans and Compliance Action Plans are finalized in the exit conference (suggestions from the LEA are incorporated into the final document) • Letter indicating Closed or Incomplete status is sent to the LEA within two weeks
Monitoring Process Overview • Required documentation is uploaded prior to onsite visit. • Many documents reviewed on-site but no copies of documentation are expected. • Process relies heavily on interviews with LEA staff and listening to their procedures and challenges. • School site visits are conducted by meeting with the principal and school leadership then walking through classrooms and parts of the building.
Monitoring Process Overview • TDOE drafts all comments, improvement plans and compliance action plans while in the district. • An on-site exit conference reviews the completed written monitoring instrument with LEA leadership.

Monitoring Documents on ePlan • 2015-16 Monitoring documents will be located on ePlan in the TDOE Resources / 2015-16 folder • For districts being monitored, documents will be located on ePlan in the LEA Document Library / 2015-16 folder under: • Results-Based Monitoring for IDEA & ESEA Programs Documents • Joint Fiscal Monitoring Documents
District Selection: Risk Analysis • Designed to target TDOE support where most needed • IDEA & ESEA monitoring selection based on risk analysis • IDEA & ESEA indicators considered with more weight for program monitoring • Fiscal indicators considered with more weight for fiscal monitoring TDOE may add additional on-site reviews on an as-needed basis • Informational Webinars to be scheduled for LEAs selected for monitoring
District Selection: Risk Analysis • An annual risk analysis identifies which LEAs are perceived to be at-risk based on various indicators. • The risk analysis includes programmatic, fiscal administrative, and achievement components of both IDEA and ESEA. • The programmatic risk analysis is weighted differently for program monitoring and fiscal monitoring.
District Selection: Risk Analysis • There is often considerable overlap between program and fiscal risk, so many LEAs will receive both program and fiscal monitoring. • Two LEAs, not identified through the risk analysis, are randomly selected for results-based and fiscal monitoring.
