School districts report their secondary transition data via Program Evaluation Effectiveness
Profile (PEEP) via MySped Resource. During the 2005-06 data collection, the entire ADE
network was taken off line for more than two-months causing the data collection to be
modified. Instead of LEAs entering data directly into PEEP, they had to fill out the required
form in a Microsoft Word file and submit the information via e-mail to the IDEA Data &
Research Office at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock. The Data & Research Office
worked with districts to clarify any questionable submissions and the SEU database
administrator to upload the data once the network became available.
The State is mindful of the close interrelationship of State Performance Plan Indicators
centering on graduation rates, dropout rates, coordinated and measurable IEP goals, and
post-school success. Arkansas has a history of technical assistance and direct service models
designed to demonstrate to school districts the importance of effective early Transition
strategic planning in the areas of training, education, employment, and independent living
designed to increase educational benefit and improve youth with an IEP post-school outcomes.
These activities were identified in 2005-06 through the use of the National Alliance for
Secondary Education and Transition (NASET) Self-Assessment Tool. State partners in
secondary and postsecondary education established the Arkansas planning priorities prior to
the National Center for Secondary Education and Transition (NCSET) National Leadership
Summit using this tool. Of the five NASET quality indicators, three (schooling, career
preparation, and connecting activities) were chosen by the Arkansas team as priorities for
comprehensive planning. Within each of these three priorities, goals and action steps were
developed to guide strategies during 2005-06.
The State is using staff and resources of the National Collaborative on Workforce and
Disability for Youth for additional technical assistance related to identifying needed planning
partners centering on transportation, housing, and technology. The State is also using staff
funded through Title VI-B set-aside dollars to offer student-specific interventions. These staff
members are accessed through the Special Education website request for services process
known as “CIRCUIT” ( ).
The regional cadre of special education consultants is available to assist in interventions for
students with sensory disabilities, multiple physical disabilities, behavior, and autism spectrum
