ESEA Monitoring for 2011-12
New ESEA Application HighlightsDistrict will have a “SuperUser” who assigns
user levelsNo Required Documents will be sent in by
mail – all will need to be scanned in and saved as a PDF, then uploaded to application
All approvals will be done electronically, automatically sent through emails
Desired waivers will need to be approved electronically online through application before application can be submitted.
More ESEA…. Title I, Part AProgram type ( TAS, SWP) will be pre-
entered with TAS as the default unless there is an approved SWP plan form on file at DPI
“Not served” will no longer be a choice, simply enter $0 in amount section
Once 85% of your budget is developed, you can submit and add rest later
Application has a series of tabs down the left side to keep a running total of expenditures as you complete sections
More Title IA…
Everything that goes into your budget section will be AUTOMATICALLY uploaded to the program plan section!! Only enter in one place!!! Whooohooo!!
HOWEVER…. Budget entries will need to be more detailed. For example, entering “materials and supplies” in the non-capital section isn’t enough – need to specify and itemize (ie., 6 iPads)
More…
Budget section – when entering teacher FTE, must enter License # using drop-down box
If the position is still open at time of completion, you can’t submit application.
More ESEA, Title IIA…Enrollment is transferred from Title IA entryProfessional development allocation for
private schools is automatically calculated based on 2001 Eisenhower funds
More …Budget entry is by WUFAR
(Wisconsin Uniform Finance…) codes.Claims are filed electronically through the
application. Claims must match amount and WUFAR code to
be reimbursed.User can view all submitted claims on
application.Encourage your Business person to attend
the March 2 ESEA Application training!!!
Transferability…If you transfer funds from IIA to IA, it shows
up as a IA activity, but must be claimed as a IIA expense.
Special line in drop down box helps your business office file properly
Final notes on ESEA applicationAll involved in the application will need to have
plan developed before entryItems entered this year will carry forward to next
year – you only have to enter or delete additional/new items
August 31 will remain as due dateAlpha version pilot in October, Beta version

Samples from local districts
Title I is a federal entitlement program, or non-competitive formula fund, allocated on the basis of student enrollment for ages 5-17, census poverty and other data.Determined annually by formula derived from
the U.S. censusConsists of as many as four separate funding
streams
Allocation of Funds to LEAs
Community Poverty LevelSAIPE -Small Area Income and Poverty Estimates
programFederal income tax returnsFood Stamp Program data10-year census dataIntercensal population estimates (between 10 yr
census terms)Supplemental Security Income recipiencyEconomic data from Bureau of Economic AnalysisCombine the above sources with American
Community Survey (ACS) estimates of poverty and income
Defining Poverty(SAIPE) eligibility
Ex: 2009 = official SAIPE poverty threshold was $21,756 for family of 4 containing 2 related children under 18
Comparison - WIC guidelines
School-based (F/R) eligibility
130% of poverty level received free
185% for reducedEx: 2009 = official poverty
threshold was $22,050 for family of 4 containing 2 related children under 18
$22050 x 1.30 = $22665 (free)
$22050 x 1.85 = $40793 (reduced)
SAIPE differences…Population estimate from SAIPE
-is based on the school age population for children living within the school district boundaries
-does not include open enrollment, etc-does not include foster children and
those in institutional facilitiesUSDE calculations incorporate open
enrollment, foster children, etc.
Poverty calculations…SAIPE estimates for community poverty have
a two-year lag time (ie., SAIPE utilizes federal tax return data for 2006, which were filed in 2007, and available to the program in 2008)
