State Performance Plan Annual Performance Report

The State is required to develop a six-year performance plan that evaluates the State's efforts to implement the requirements and purposes of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act of 2004 (IDEA), Section 616(b). The State Performance Plan (SPP) illustrates how the State will continuously improve upon this implementation, and includes updates through the Annual Performance Report (APR) submitted each February to the United States Department of Education's Office of Special Education Programs.

The 2020-21 school year began the State’s current six-year reporting cycle.
