Design and Implementation Considerations for the ESSA Resource Allocation Review
Our aim is to make explicit connections between the ESSA inequity provisions, including, a) the state education agency to conduct the resource allocation review process, b) support to local education agencies with schools that qualify for comprehensive improvement to identify and address resource inequities within the district, and c) schools that qualify for additional comprehensive improvement support to identify and address resource inequities within their school. The presentation will focus on designing a process that enables state education agency leaders to build the capacity of district and school leaders to - create connections between identified needs, evidence-based strategies, and resource allocation methods - to address resource inequities and ultimately improve the educational experience of all students. Above all, to ensure the resource allocation review becomes a means of establishing equity-centered decision-making rather than another exercise to be in compliance.
