This session will discuss the basic fundamental aspects of Maintenance of Effort (MOE) and the legal obligation of Local Education Agencies (LEAs) to sustain the same level of funding for the education of students with disabilities from one fiscal year to another. This obligation can be difficult for LEAs to comply with. Therefore, this session will provide a comprehensive overview of MOE and the related financial reporting requirements.
This session will cover Maintenance of Effort (MOE) and provide effective strategies for managing exceptions and ongoing MOE calculations. This session will equip you with practical knowledge to ensure compliance while optimizing resource allocation. The session will include engaging discussions and interactive exercises to provide valuable insights into maintaining effort levels, handling exceptions, and conducting ongoing MOE calculations.
With the completion of the American Rescue Plan – Homeless Children and Youth Funds (ARP-HCY), ensuring the Title I set aside is sufficient to serve students experiencing homelessness is more important than ever. In this session we will review the requirements of the Set Aside Title I funds for students experiencing homelessness, the allowable uses of these funds, when to use the set aside, and discuss the importance of including the McKinney Vento liaison when calculating the set aside amount. To stress the relevance of the Title I set aside, we will briefly review the definition of homelessness as stated in the McKinney Vento Act and the McKinney Vento statewide data.
