State Posts Annual Performance
Report for Special Education
May 25, 2008
Sunday
The Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act requires
each state to have a State Performance Plan, which sets measurable
goals for the provision of educational services to special education
students. Furthermore, the state is required to monitor progress
toward these goals and produce an Annual Performance Report on
the progress.
The Alaska Department of Education & Early Development is
required to report to the public each district's performance
on 14 indicators. The data is collected from all school districts
in Alaska, and this data is used to determine whether Alaska's
schools are meeting the targets set forth in the State Performance
Plan and Annual Performance Report.
The department evaluates statistical data from each school district
and uses this data to create an individual Special Education
Data Profile for each district. The Data Profile is a way to
see how a district is performing toward meeting the targets identified
in the State Performance Plan.
