[Busmgrs] FW: Excess Cost V-Tel Training

[RYAN Debby]

> December 14, 2007
> RE: Excess Cost V-tel
> Eric Richards will be conducting a 2 hour v-tel training on Excess
> Cost Calculation on January 9, 2007.  By that time all districts will
> have completed audits for fiscal 2006-2007 and should have submitted
> hard copies to Barbara Cruickshank by December 31, 2007.
> There have been several questions asked since the November 15
> training, which will be covered during this v-tel.  
> One of those questions has to do with using the appropriate count for
> students with disabilities. After looking at the SECC numbers we have
> posted with the Federal Flow-Through amounts and doing some data
> analysis, we have come up with a way to get a more "accurate" SECC
> number for purposes of the Excess Cost calculations. The SECC number
> that is used in the federal funding formula includes students in a
> number of state operated programs that probably do not belong in the
> Excess Cost calculations. I am attaching a document that contains
> instructions on how to download the most current SECC data that was
> submitted to ODE. 
>  <<SECC Data for Excess Cost Calculations.doc>> 
> The v-tel will be broadcast throughout the state, and will also be
> video streamed so that you may be able to watch on your personal
> computer. Please send a message to Barbara Beckner  at
> barbara.beckner at state.or.us  (with copy to me) if your ESD wishes to
> host.  The ESD will need to include the name, phone number, and e-mail
> address of its IT contact person, and its E164 code.
> Another message will come out in late December.  Just wanted to make
> sure you place this date on your calendars, communicate with your ESDs
> if they wish to host, and receive clarification on which IEP count to
> use for the calculations.
> Please feel free to connect with me should you have any questions at
> eric.richards at state.or.us or 503-947- 5786.  
> Wishing you all a joyous holiday season.
> Messages to and from this e-mail address may be made available to the
> public under Oregon law.
