The FY19 federal budget does include an appropriated Title IV grant but the funding formula has yet to be announced.
PLANNING, EVALUATION, AND TRANSPARENCY The Office of Federal Programs utilizes an Advisory Team that meets four times a year to involve stakeholders in developing the grants. This provides an opportunity for greater transparency and engagement. A requirement of all federal grants is that each activity is evaluated annually and the results of the evaluation are used to determine the level of need for the next year’s grant. 11
MANAGEMENT, MONITORING, AND EVALUATION Management of the Every Student Succeeds Act grants is executed by the Office of Federal Programs in collaboration with other central services offices and school level staff. Internal Controls are practiced that align with Berkeley County School District guidelines and procedures as well as the federal guidelines specific to each grant. The required Federal Tests of Maintenance of Effort, Comparability, and Supplement, not Supplant are performed annually and submitted to the South Carolina Department of Education. The Office of Federal Programs performs monthly monitoring visits at in each Title I school to provide support to the school staff implementing the school level grants. The South Carolina Department of Education performs monitoring visits annually in districts with federal grants. Internal Audits are performed on the Title I grant annually and other federal grants as selected by the auditors.
