Education Stimulus Fund Monitoring

Federal requirements mandate that State Educational Agencies (SEAs) provide technical assistance to Local Educational Agencies (LEAs), as well as oversee and monitor the implementation of Education Stimulus Funds (ESF).

ESF Monitoring Explainer Video

Based on that understanding, the Office of ESSA-Funded Programs Project Staff will monitor for compliance and provide technical assistance related to the programmatic and fiscal requirements under the following Education Stimulus Funds:

Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief (ESSER I) Fund
Governor鈥檚 Emergency Education Relief (GEER I & GEER II) Fund
Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations (CRRSA/ESSER II) Act
American Rescue Plan (ARP), including the State-Level Reserves:
- 5% - Addressing the Academic Impact of Lost Instructional Time
- 1% - Comprehensive After-School
- 1% - Summer Learning and Enrichment

The Project Staff used a risk-based approach to select LEAs from across New York State for monitoring reviews to determine compliance with requirements outlined in the Education Stimulus Funds. All LEAs that received allocations under the Education Stimulus Funds will be monitored between September 2022 and September 2024

The Education Stimulus Fund monitoring will consist of 3 types of monitoring of the programs outlined above:

Types of Education Stimulus Fund Monitoring
听	Coordinated	Targeted	Desk-Review
Number of LEAs selected	115	367	529
How conducted	Full day, on-site with document review and staff interviews	Half day, virtual with document review and staff interviews	Remote via 正澳门六合彩记录资料 Portal Document Review
Number of 正澳门六合彩记录资料 Reviewers	2	1	1

听

While the underlying mandate of monitoring is compliance-focused, the Department recognizes that compliance is the minimum requirement. To expand the focus from compliance to continuous improvement and maximum impact of each monitored program, staff work to engage with LEA and facility representatives throughout the monitoring process to provide targeted technical assistance that addresses an LEA鈥檚 specific programmatic and fiscal implementation needs.

Due to the large number of LEAs that will be monitored between September 2022 and September 2024, LEAs will be separated into Review Groups to facilitate scheduling and the review process.
