SERIES: 27573
TITLE: Basic skills education program grant records
DATES: 2006-2008.
ARRANGEMENT: Alphabetical by school district name, thereunder alphabetical by student surname

DESCRIPTION: Records in this series were created to help the Utah State Office of Education (USOE) manage the Basic Skills Education Stipend Program (described under Utah Code 53A-1-612).

The forms in these records were used to register the student/parent's choice of remediation provider (typically the school district). The information was entered into a database and future Utah Basic Skills Competency Test (UBSCT) results were tracked and stipends paid appropriately.

Documents in the series include: original signed choice forms, descriptions of remediation services provided by the districts, electronic versions of all program documentation, the electronic database used to track students and their results (including those that had a stipend paid), electronic analysis files showing program results/vital statistics.

Funding for this program was terminated in September 2008 during a special legislative session. A set of forms which were submitted to USOE but never entered into the database is included. The 2008-09 database file does not have any payment data as no funding was available.
