Oklahoma is expanding graduation opportunities for students who participate in the Oklahoma Alternate Assessment Program (OAAP) Survey. We are seeking input from districts to guide our decision-making. The purpose of this survey is to gather data regarding current transition programs, identify curriculum, develop a task force, collect resources, and identify barriers and needs. We appreciate your time!
Districts must complete a FY23 LEA Agreement amendment to update their MOE tab. The information listed under the FY21 and FY22 column must match the districts data reported to OCAS. All amendments must be completed by February 24, 2023.
For assistance contact your Special Ed Finance Specialist.
The Re-Allocation of Project 615 funds has been completed. Districts not submitting a budget application by December 1, 2022 have forfeited their allocation. Districts having completed a budget application prior to December 1, 2022 have received additional funds and must complete a budget amendment to budget the additional funding. Should you have any questions please contact your financial specialist.
You can find the most recent information regarding new resources for District Test Coordinators and a reminder to submit the Justification Survey if applicable!
