The U.S. Department of Education Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP) utilizes differentiated supervision and monitoring for states as part of its Results Driven Accountability (RDA) system. This monitoring process known as differentiated monitoring and support (DMS 2.0) is a multi-month, three phase process with OSEP that requires detailed review of the state’s general supervision system. This memo responds to OSEP DMS 2.0 single finding of noncompliance for dispute resolution. IDOE is responding to the finding that the state’s regulations at 511 IAC 7-32-77, and state complaint procedures do not include the state education agency (SEA) under IDEA’s definition of public agency, as required by 34 C.F.R. §§ 300.33 and 300.153(b).
