SFSF PHASEII Application
DATA COLLECTION & PUBLIC REPORTING PLANS
The State
must collect and publicly report the data or other information required by
an assurance indicator or descriptor. If the State is not able to
fully collect or publicly report, at least annually through September 30,
2011, the State plan must describe the State’s process and timeline for
developing and implementing, as soon as possible but no later than September
30, 2011, the means to fully collect and publicly report the data or
information, including the milestones that the State establishes toward
developing and implementing those means, the date by which the State expects
to reach each milestone, and any obstacles that may prevent the State from
developing and implementing those means by September 30, 2011, including but
not limited to requirements and prohibitions of State law and policy.
The plan must also include the nature and frequency of reports that the
State will provide to the public regarding its progress in developing and
implementing those means; the website where the State will make the plan and
progress reports publicly available (as defined in the Notice of Final
Requirements, Definitions, and Approval Criteria for the SFSF Phase II), the
amount of funds the State is using or will use to develop and implement
those means, and whether the funds are or will be Federal, State, or local
funds.
The success of the education part of the
ARRA will depend on the shared commitment and responsibility of students,
parents, teachers, principals, superintendents, education boards, college
presidents, State school chiefs, governors, local officials, and federal
officials. Collectively, we must advance ARRA’s short-term economic goals
by investing quickly, and we must support ARRA’s long-term economic goals by
investing wisely, using these funds to strengthen education, drive reforms,
and improve results for students from pre-kindergarten through college. (USED)
