Section 392-164-390. Program evaluation.

Each local school district or other subgrantee that receives a subgrant under Chapter 1 Migrant shall conduct evaluations that assess the overall progress of participating migrant children in grade two through twelve, including education progress, in terms of instructional services and support services.

The evaluation design for the regular school year instructional program must include:

(1) Objective measures of educational progress of project participants (including achievement in basic skills) as measured, if possible, over a twelve-month testing interval through the use of forms of state or national normal achievement tests. If this is not possible the LEA or operating agency may use other acceptable measures of educational progress of migrant children, such as changes in attendance patterns, drop-out rates, and objectively applied indicators of student achievement;

(2) Migrant summer schools, to the extent possible, must follow the same guidelines; and

(3) During either regular or summer terms, the evaluation design for support service components must include measures of the effects on project participants that are consistent with the defined support objectives. In addition, each local school district or other subgrantee, when appropriate, shall determine whether improved student achievement is sustained over a period of more than one program year, and shall consider that data in the improvement of programs and projects assisted with Chapter 1 Migrant moneys.
