FY2009 Allocation Funding for Round 7 (2008-09)

Under the federal REAP and FLEX guidelines, districts still have the option of transferring funds from other programs into the Title II-D program in order to use such funds for activities allowable under the Title II-D program. To do this, districts should submit their common pages and OBM form 1 as usual and also submit a Title II-D Funds Transfer Application. Such transfers will then be reviewed by the program managers for both title programs.

Focus Area 1 - Portfolio Assessment Rubrics

Grants to districts for this focus area provided the means of assembling a statewide Portfolio Assessment Rubrics Team. This team engaged in studying rubrics using a customized OPEN NH online course, then met in the summer to develop common rubrics for use with 8th grade portfolio assessment. After the team pilots these rubrics in the fall 2009, they will be widely disseminated. Districts will be able to adopt them for use as appropriate. Visit the ICT Literacy Toolkit for resources related to this focus area.
