SOUTH WINDSOR PUBLIC SCHOOLS 2013-2014 Board of Education Budget (PROPOSED) GLOSSARY DRGs: Since 1996, the Connecticut State Department of Education has divided school districts into nine groups initially called Educational Reference Groups. These nine groups are determined according to socio-economic status and other factors. In 2006, the nine groups, labeled A through I, were reclassified District Reference Groups (DRGs) using updated data but the same formula. Seven data indicators are used to classify similar districts into a DRG: three indicators of socioeconomic status (median family income, parental education, and parental occupation), three indicators of need (percentage of children living in families with a single parent, the percentage of public school children eligible to receive free or reduced-price meals, and percentage of children whose families speak a language other than English at home) and enrollment (the number of students attending schools in that district). ED001: End of Year School Financial Report. The annual report to the state of school expenditures and other statistics. Required to be filed by September 1 st by every Connecticut public school district. The report serves as the primary source of financial information on education in the state. The data is used in providing statistical information to local, state and federal decision-makers.

The No Child Left Behind Act is the most recent reauthorization of the ESEA.

Encumbered funds are unavailable for other use until the funds are expended or liquidated. EXCEL: An educational program that addresses the needs of gifted and talented students.
