In 2004, Congress reauthorized the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). As part of the 2004 IDEA Reauthorization, Congress required that every State Educational Agency (SEA) submit a State Performance Plan (SPP) to the federal Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP).
The SPP is a six-year performance plan, which evaluates a SEA’s efforts to implement IDEA requirements and describes how the SEA will improve its performance in twenty critical areas, known as indicators. Fourteen of the SPP indicators (Indicators One through Fourteen) are a combination of areas that gauge educational outcomes for students with disabilities, as well as school districts’ strict compliance with IDEA requirements. The last six SPP indicators (Indicators Fifteen through Twenty) judge the SEA’s exercise of general supervisory authority under IDEA.
