PURPOSE Dr. John D. Barge, State School Superintendent “Making Education Work for All Georgians” www.gadoe.org 3
Purpose The Georgia Department of Education (GaDOE) has an annual requirement to collect the number of students enrolled in residential facilities for neglected or delinquent children located in local educational agencies (LEAs). The annual survey is required by the U.S. Department of Education (US ED). The information is used to determine Title I funding. This year’s survey generates funding for the 2014-2015 school year. Dr. John D. Barge, State School Superintendent “Making Education Work for All Georgians” www.gadoe.org 4
Purpose All LEAs (School Districts, State Schools, State Charter Schools) are required to complete and submit this survey to GaDOE , even if they do not have residential facilities for neglected or delinquent children within their geographical boundaries. It is the responsibility of the LEA to locate and consult with all local institutions for neglected or delinquent children located within their geographical boundaries (school attendance area).

Steps: Find Facilities A number of facilities that offer education onsite are recognized by GaDOE under O.C.G.A 20-2-133(b). Some of these facilities have school codes and should be treated as such, while others function as programs. If these residential facilities fall within the school attendance area of a particular LEA, they should be included in the annual N&D survey.
