State team conducts a site visit to the district or school site
District receives letter from DDOE informing them of the monitoring results
If district/site provides complete and valid evidence of successful assessment monitoring and compliance, has met all requirements, it will receive designation of compliance and returns back to cycle. If district/site does not provide complete and valid evidence of successful assessment monitoring and compliance, or if any monitored area is found deficient, the district and school will be designated as “noncompliant” and some form of monitoring will continue.
