<div>Dear Colleagues:</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The Department of Education continues to look for ways to work more efficiently, and will again ask Districts to make their own arrangements to provide additional copies of the Procedural Safeguards booklet this year. This fall’s shipment will contain
the total number of booklets, including translations, that ODE will ship, and <i><u>this will be the last year ODE will print and ship the Procedural Safeguards to the Districts.</u></i> Beginning next year (2015-16) districts will be responsible for making
their own copies of the Procedural Safeguards and funds ODE historically used to produce and ship the booklets to Districts will be allocated to SPR&I grants.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>ODE used the following district/program data to determine the number of booklets in each shipment: </div>
<div> </div>
<ol style="margin:0;padding-left:36pt;">
<li>December 2013 child count (SECC)</li><li>Child Find and Discipline Incident numbers </li><li>a 10% overage </li></ol>
<div><font face="Calibri" size="2"><span style="font-size:11pt;"> </span></font></div>
<div>Translations are available in Spanish, Russian, Chinese, and Vietnamese. The July 2014 version and its translated versions are posted to the ODE website at </div>
