Comprehensive Coordinated Early Intervening Services
Overview
Regulations under Section 618 and Section 613 of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) require states to identify school divisions that have significant disproportionality of racial/ethnic groups with regards to identification in special education, specific disability categories, placement, and discipline. Each school year during the fall, divisions are notified of the significant disproportionality and informed that they are required to set-aside Part B funds for Comprehensive Coordinated Early Intervening Services (CCEIS) the following school year. Those divisions are then required to reserve 15 percent of their Part B grant awards to provide CCEIS.
Any school division may opt to use up to, but not exceed, 15 percent of the total amount of its 611 and 619 Part B IDEA funds for Coordinated Early Intervening Services (CEIS). Those divisions choosing to voluntarily set-aside IDEA Part B funds can designate such as part of the IDEA Annual Plan/Application Process.
Additional information about CCEIS and CEIS is available on the Center for IDEA Fiscal Reporting (CIFR) website.
