From the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education
The draft of the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) state plan has been posted on the Executive Office of Education’s website. The Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education welcomes your comments, and asks that you use this survey to provide feedback so that all of your thoughts can be collected in one place. The deadline for public comment is March 9, 2017. D.E.S.E. is expected to submit their plan to the U.S. Department of Education on April 3, 2017.
They have posted three documents: highlights of the plan (2 pages), an executive summary of the plan (11 pages), and the full plan (which uses the template that the US Dept. of Education requires and is 121 pages long).
Take a moment to review the collected documents above, take the short survey and share your comments – Your input matters.
