Connecting Internal Monitoring Processes to Your District One Plan

Educational Agency’s Self-Review

Once the educational agency has provided professional development, technical assistance, and coaching to all special education stakeholders, they will begin the self-review process to identify special education priorities that will be included in the educational agency’s One Plan. The goal of the self-review process is to maximize the use of resources that will result in better academic and social post-secondary outcomes for students with disabilities and to meet regulatory requirements. The educational agency’s self-review, coupled with a continuous improvement philosophy, will result in positive growth and development for personnel and education systems and will, in turn, result in higher achievement for all students.

The educational agency will analyze data, student performance outcomes and policies, practices, and procedures to identify areas of concern and root causes to complete the Self-Review Summary Report. The following sources must be considered:

1. One Needs Assessment Tool and Ohio Improvement Process (OIP) strategies and action steps, and One Plan

2. Reading Improvement and Monitoring Plans (RIMPs)

3. Coordinated Early Intervening Services (CEIS)

4. IDEA funding plans and alignment (CCIP/One Plan and other initiatives)

5. Annual Measurable Objective (AMO) gap analysis measures

6. Processes for addressing individual student growth for students with disabilities, such as IEP progress monitoring

7. For community schools, the last three sponsor site visit reports
