This testimony discusses early implementation of SES, including how (1) SES participation changed in recent years; (2) providers work with districts to deliver services; (3) states monitor and evaluate SES; and (4) the U.S. Department of Education (Education) monitors and supports SES implementation. This testimony is based on an August 2006 report (GAO-06-758) and also provides information on actions Education has taken that respond to our recommendations. For the report, GAO surveyed all states and a nationally representative sample of districts with schools required to offer SES, visited four school districts, and interviewed SES providers. https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-07-738T/html/GAOREPORTS-GAO-07-738T.htm https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-07-738T/pdf/GAOREPORTS-GAO-07-738T.pdf GAO-07-738T https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/GAOREPORTS-GAO-07-738T Testimony GAO-07-738T; No Child Left Behind Act: Education Actions May Help Improve Implementation and Evaluation of Supplemental Educational Services; Academic achievement Aid for education Education Education program evaluation Elementary school students Elementary schools Evaluation methods Federal/state relations Monitoring School districts State-administered programs State/local relations Students Teachers Public Law 107-110
