The Maine Department of Education has revised the EF-M-39A due July 15th, and the EF-M-39B report due January 15th is now a one page report.
The EF-M-39A has been reduced to a one page form. The listing of the actual students has been eliminated, and the form has also been designed so it can be used for both the EF-M-39A and the EF-M-39B submissions. You will not need to download two separate spreadsheets. You will only be asked to provide the number of 16- to 20-year-old resident students who are enrolled in academic courses in adult education somewhere in Maine, and are no longer enrolled in “Regular Education.” Finally, the user is asked to provide the total number of adult education academic courses (not credits) that these same students were taking during this reporting period.
The reporting calendar lists all reports due to MDOE.

It is important to note that subsidy is estimated unless actual numbers are submitted. The accuracy, completeness, and timeliness of the data sent for this report has a direct correlation to the subsidy that your district may receive.
If you have any questions about the new process please contact Travis Wood at travis.wood@maine.gov or call the MEDMS helpdesk at (207) 624-6896.
