The district description shall include a description of the program to be conducted at each separate school or location in the district and shall include the estimated number of students to participate in the program; the estimated number of teachers, volunteers and others to be utilized in the program; and the estimated budget for each such program. The programs provided by funds received under this chapter shall meet the following criteria: Each participating student must be determined by the school district, on the basis of the district’s assessment tests, to need special educational assistance in order that the student’s level of educational attainment in basic skills may be raised to that appropriate for children of the student’s age. The program must be based on performance objectives related to educational achievement in the basic skills and provide supplementary services designed to meet the special educational needs of each participating student. The program must be evaluated in a manner consistent with the performance objectives and include a pretest and a post-test for each participating student. The evaluation may use local measures designed to measure the local instructional management plan. The state and local funds expended in the program must be accounted for separately from all other funds expended by the district. The program must establish a teacher support team in each building wherein the program is implemented to play a key role in determining the instructional services required by a child.
