Issue

District failed to complete child find requirements for students parentally placed in approved private special education schools in the geographic area

Finding

Noncompliance:

District failed to include the private special education schools in its child find or child count for the 2019-2020 school year.

Corrective Action

District already implemented corrective action. District contacted the two private schools in question and found no parentally placed students at one.  District has not heard back from the other school yet.

District must provide DESE. with a copy of the updated Child Find notice sent to the second private school and any correspondence

If the second private school confirms that there are privately enrolled students, district must show corrective action steps to include them in the share calculation and IDEA grant application
