Subject: Project EASIER update Update to AEA Project EASIER
representatives.
Good news during a time of budget cuts and national
disasters. Project EASIER continues to expand. Over 200 school districts used
Project EASIER to submit BEDS fall data to the Department of Education. The DE
staff then compiled the districts report and school officials verified the
correctness of the report using the web. This fall another 30 districts signed
up for Project EASIER including two non-public schools. It is gratifying
to see educators embrace a new and improved way of doing reports. The
indirect effect of improving student data is also evident. Progress is also
being made in submitting student transcripts from high schools to area community
colleges and the Regent Universities. The state has set a goal to have all
school districts using project EASIER by July 2003. We are experiencing
good cooperation with vendors. If you have questions please contact me using
email or call me at (515) 987-8139.
I wish you a Happy Thanksgiving and hope you take
some time to relax and appreciate your friends, families and loved
ones.
