ARKANSAS SPECIAL EDUCATION
DISTRICT ANNUAL PERFORMANCE REPORT
2010/11 School Year
Publication Date: March 2012
Each State must have in place a State Performance Plan (SPP) to evaluate the State's efforts to meet the requirements and
purposes of the implementation of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). The SPP is a six-year plan, which
describes Arkansas's performance on 20 indicators. The Office of Special Education Programs in the U. S. Department of
Education requires that States report annually to the public on the performance of each local education agency (LEA) on 14 of
20 indicators as compared with targets established by the State in the SPP. Arkansas will report indicators 1 through 14 and
20 for each LEA serving children with disabilities (CWD). Any LEA not meeting targets on compliance indicators (0% for
Indicators 4B, 09 & 10 and 100% for Indicators 11, 12, 13, and 20) are non-compliant with IDEA.
There are no report changes for the 2010/11 school year profile; However, it is important to recognize that: .
1. Indicator 01 (Graduation) is reported a year in arrear (2009/10 graduates) and is based on a four-year cohort. This
means the rate is a measure of students who entered in ninth grade and graduate in four years. The calculation is a
requirement under Title I of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA).
2. Indicator 02 (Drop out) is reported a year in arrear. This means the rate is a measure of students who dropped out in
the 2009/10 school year. The Indicator 02 data are aligned with the Common Core of Data (CCD) requirements for
grades 7-12.
3. Indicator 04A and 4B (Suspension/Expulsion) is reported a year in arrear. This means the rate is a measure of
students who had out-of-school suspensions and/or expulsions totaling more than 10 days.
