Federal Programs: Supplemental Educational ServicesUnder Title I, Part A, of the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB) , a reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA), students from low income families attending schools that do not make adequate yearly progress for three consecutive years (i.e., schools are in their second year of improvement) may receive supplemental educational services (SES). States are responsible for identifying eligible SES providers. Parents choose the SES Provider for their children from among the providers approved by the state for their school district. State education agencies must develop and apply objective criteria to create approved lists of SES providers. States must also consult with parents, teachers, school districts and interested members of the public to identify a wide array of SES provider options for students. States must update this list of approved SES providers on at least an annual basis, and must provide a list for school districts of the approved providers in their geographic area. School districts are required to arrange for the provision of these supplemental educational services and must provide parents with information on the availability of supplemental educational services, the identity of approved service providers, and, at a minimum, a brief description of the services, qualifications, and demonstrated effectiveness of each provider.
