State Flex – Districts Have
a Say Direct Student Services? OPTIONAL
3% off the top of Title I
Separately granted to districts (probably not all)
Could be used for limited programs (all schools?)
Personalized learning activities
Credit recovery/acceleration
Enrollment in advanced courses/CTE leading to industry credential

![Page 12: New Flexibilities under the Every Student Succeeds Act of … 2016 Sattle.pdf · New Flexibilities under the Every Student Succeeds Act of 2015 ... Districts can use a nationally](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022042801/5a7baf207f8b9a49588c1cc0/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
State Flex – Districts Have
a Say Assessment
Up to 7 states (or groups of states) can apply to try out
“innovative assessments” like performance tests, in a few
districts
Districts can use a nationally recognized test (like the SAT
or ACT) at the high school level if they get state permission
![Page 13: New Flexibilities under the Every Student Succeeds Act of … 2016 Sattle.pdf · New Flexibilities under the Every Student Succeeds Act of 2015 ... Districts can use a nationally](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022042801/5a7baf207f8b9a49588c1cc0/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
State Flex – Districts Have
a Say School Grades
Elem & Middle – Must have “another academic outcome”
and English Language proficiency
N=10? In a grade or across a school?
High – Must have English Language proficiency (and
graduation)
![Page 14: New Flexibilities under the Every Student Succeeds Act of … 2016 Sattle.pdf · New Flexibilities under the Every Student Succeeds Act of 2015 ... Districts can use a nationally](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022042801/5a7baf207f8b9a49588c1cc0/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
State Flex – Districts Have
a Say School Grades
Another academic outcome that measures “students’
opportunity to learn”
Is growth enough?
Suggested: Teacher engagement, student engagement,
access to advanced coursework, school climate
Must be of “substantial” weight but academic factors
“much greater”
![Page 15: New Flexibilities under the Every Student Succeeds Act of … 2016 Sattle.pdf · New Flexibilities under the Every Student Succeeds Act of 2015 ... Districts can use a nationally](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022042801/5a7baf207f8b9a49588c1cc0/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
State Flex – Districts Have
a Say School Improvement
Comprehensive– every 3 years
Bottom 5% of Title I schools
How selected?
High schools with >67% graduation
DISTRICTS must devise evidence-based plans
Process?
![Page 16: New Flexibilities under the Every Student Succeeds Act of … 2016 Sattle.pdf · New Flexibilities under the Every Student Succeeds Act of 2015 ... Districts can use a nationally](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022042801/5a7baf207f8b9a49588c1cc0/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
State Flex – Districts Have
a Say School Improvement
Targeted - annual
Schools in which subgroups of students are “consistently underperforming”
How defined?
How many years?
Exit criteria?
SCHOOLS must devise evidence-based plans
DISTRICTS must monitor
Process?

New Flexibilities
Title I
Must fund all schools 75% poverty or greater
May now put high schools in the “must-fund” category at
50% or greater
Schoolwide Programs – funds for entire school
Schoolwide programs are for schools with 40% or greater
poverty
May now apply to state if less than 40%
![Page 20: New Flexibilities under the Every Student Succeeds Act of … 2016 Sattle.pdf · New Flexibilities under the Every Student Succeeds Act of 2015 ... Districts can use a nationally](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022042801/5a7baf207f8b9a49588c1cc0/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Overall Funding Flex
Districts can use Title I funds flexibly…
IF they first demonstrate that schools are funded
equitably with state & local funds before adding federal
funds.
What does this mean???
Huge controversy
ED just sent draft rule to OMB for review
Public comment period required
![Page 21: New Flexibilities under the Every Student Succeeds Act of … 2016 Sattle.pdf · New Flexibilities under the Every Student Succeeds Act of 2015 ... Districts can use a nationally](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022042801/5a7baf207f8b9a49588c1cc0/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Big Questions:
Supplement not Supplant Supplement: using funds to enhance something that
already exists
Supplant: using funds to replace something that already exists
Gone: traditional way of measuring supplement, not supplant
Was it funded last year with a different fund source?
Is it required by state or district?
Is it funded in another school with different fund source?
![Page 22: New Flexibilities under the Every Student Succeeds Act of … 2016 Sattle.pdf · New Flexibilities under the Every Student Succeeds Act of 2015 ... Districts can use a nationally](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022042801/5a7baf207f8b9a49588c1cc0/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Bottom Line
Districts should get more flexibility
Accounting should be easier
Transparency and reporting will be critical
![Page 23: New Flexibilities under the Every Student Succeeds Act of … 2016 Sattle.pdf · New Flexibilities under the Every Student Succeeds Act of 2015 ... Districts can use a nationally](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022042801/5a7baf207f8b9a49588c1cc0/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

New Flexibility
(and requirements) Districts: Not just for “core” academic subjects
Lots of new uses (evaluation, recruiting…)

Must be evidence-based
States: allows development of consortia to deal with reciprocity (hiring across state lines)
States: allows new teacher, principal and school leadership academies
New STEM master teachers corps
New American history and civics program
