Special Education Fiscal Monitoring New Process and Office Hours

To: Special Education Directors and Business Managers
From: Bridgette Ramaley, Fiscal Monitoring Supervisor

The Minnesota Department of Education (MDE) Special Education Fiscal Monitoring Team began implementing a new fiscal monitoring process in Fall 2024. This new process includes some similarities to past work but also includes new steps that local educational agencies (LEAs) should become familiar with. To explain the new process a short video has been made for your viewing: Special Education Fiscal Monitoring Video.

Additionally, the fiscal monitoring team will be holding monthly office hours through the duration of the 2024-2025 school year. These will be opportunities to ask questions about special education fiscal topics.

These office hours are for special education directors, business managers and related special education and business staff who are required to submit documentation to MDE during special education fiscal monitoring to determine compliance with applicable reporting requirements. Please share this announcement with applicable staff.

Please email SPED Fiscal Monitoring Team with questions.
