Christina School District

Special Education
On-Site Monitoring LEA Corrective Action Plan
2019 – 2020
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Goal: The goal of this plan is to ensure systemic changes in the Christina School District that will improve results for students with disabilities and
their families and achieve and maintain the District's compliance with special education regulations.
Background: During the month of November 2019 Delaware Department of Education ("DDOE") representatives reviewed student records and
IEPs for compliance with special education regulations in specific areas of evaluation/re-evaluation, IEP development, LRE, and secondary
transition. On November 26, 2019, the DDOE provided a compliance monitoring report to the District summarizing the findings. This corrective
action plan describes the strategies and steps that the District will take to ensure compliance with special education regulations, including
professional development and a system of internal controls.
On-Site Monitoring LEA Corrective Action Plan: When an LEA has less than 90% compliance total for any item on the Compliance Summary report,
LEA Level Corrective Actions must also be completed for that item. This percentage is calculated by dividing the total number of students found
compliant by the total number of student files reviewed.

The LEA must identify and document the root cause for any item for which the LEA was less than 90% compliant. The LEA must also record the
corrective actions taken for each item of noncompliance.

After corrections have been made for each item of noncompliance, the appropriate administrator must sign and date the form for each item.
Then, notify DDOE that the actions have been completed and submit evidence as required to DDOE for verification of corrections (e.g. sign in
sheets, PowerPoint presentation, handouts, certificates of training attendance etc.)
DDOE will verify that all LEA Level corrective actions have been completed.
Due Dates: Following is a timeline for actions due to the DDOE:

1. Completed and signed On-Site Monitoring LEA Corrective Action Plan due to the
January 15, 2020
DDOE
2. Individual student corrections completed April 15, 2020
