Schools are working hard to improve the quality of education your child receives. SES are provided in addition to a school's plan to improve learning. If a child is eligible, the school district pays for SES.

To be eligible for SES a child must attend a Title I school that is in Phase 2 or higher of school improvement, and the family must meet income eligibility guidelines. If you are not sure whether your child is eligible, check with your child's school or the district office. Neither schools nor providers are allowed to make public the names of eligible students.

SES Allocation Information

The final Title I Regulations of October 2008 require state education agencies (SEAs) to post the following information:

o 20% obligation (set-aside) for Public School Choice and SES;
o The annual per-student amount for SES, and
o The amount from the 20% obligation that may be used for parent outreach and engagement.

For 2009-10, these amounts include regular Title I funds as well as American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) Title I funds. The Michigan Department of Education (MDE) has received waiver granting authority from the U.S. Department of Education (USED) to allow local education agencies (LEAs) to exclude ARRA funds when calculating the 20% obligation and the annual per-student amount for SES. The links below contain this information broken down by regular Title I funds, ARRA Title I funds, and combined funds (regular + ARRA).

• 20% Obligation for School Districts with Identified Title I Schools     
• Annual Per-Student Amount for Supplemental Educational Services  
• Amounts from the 20% Obligation for Choice and SES that may be used for parent outreach and engagement

Information and instructions on the waiver process were sent to LEAs on October 8^th.
