Discussion of Baseline Data:
During the 2009-10 monitoring cycle, 437 IEPs were reviewed for compliance in 82 school
districts. There were 16 IEPs found to be out of compliance in relation to secondary transition
in six (6) school districts. As of December 15, 2010 all findings of non-compliance issued
during the 2009-10 school year have been corrected, as soon as possible and no later than one
year. Additionally, onsite verification of current IEPs has been conducted by the Monitoring
and Program Effectiveness (M/PE) staff and no evidence of continual non-compliance was
found.
In FFY 2007, Arkansas changed to using monitoring data as the data collection methodology
and as a result in that first year failed to meet the target of 100% or substantial compliance.
This indicator was not reported in FFY 2008. The improvement seen in the FFY 2009 data
reflects the implementation of OSEP Memo 09-02 and activities undertaken by the M/PE and
Arkansas Transition Services staff. These activities are presented below in the Improvement
Activities/ Timelines/Resources section.
Clearance of any non-compliance findings issued in FFY 2008 is discussed under Indicator 15:
General Supervision of the APR.
Targeted Activities:
Indicator 13 activities include technical assistance opportunities through the Arkansas
Transition Services (ATS), P.O.I.S.E., ADE-SEU Monitoring and Program Effectiveness Unit
(M/PE), and the Arkansas Local Education Agency Resource Network (AR-LEARN).
State partners in secondary and postsecondary education continue to implement the NASET
Self-Assessment Tool planning priorities. Other strategies centering on state-level integration
will be refined and maintained. The Partners in Transition effort is being implemented
statewide.
CIRCUIT and the website
continue to be utilized as vehicles for
improving the outcomes related to the secondary transition indicator.
