Special Education Directors in school administrative units (SAUs) with publicly funded students will need to Review and Certify the EF-S-05 Part 1 (Special Education Child Count) BEFORE superintendents can certify overall counts.

October 1 Enrollment reporting often brings up many questions about unique situations for student enrollments and how to record the data for state reporting purposes. We often hear questions about enrolling students experiencing homelessness, State Agency Clients, enrollments in special purpose private schools, Superintendent Agreements, and many other situations that students may be experiencing.

The Maine DOE Helpdesk webpage provides guidance for most of these situations on the Student Enrollment Guides page. This resource can be very helpful when working to determine fiscal responsibilities, subsidy counts, and reporting responsibilities.

The Enrollment Guidance Document can be a particularly useful resource for October 1 Enrollment reporting, and we highly recommend having it readily available when working on this report.

If a student’s situation does not meet any of the outlined enrollment guidance or if you have questions about enrollment guidance, please contact MEDMS.Helpdesk@maine.gov or call 207-624-6896.

Join the Data Team for information about the October 1 Student Enrollment report. The data from this report is part of determining state funding allocations to SAUs.

This webinar will be recorded and posted to the DOE Data Youtube Playlist. It may take a few days for the recording to be posted, however, it will be available as soon as possible. Additional information about this webinar can be found on the Webinars page of the Helpdesk Website.

If this webinar is canceled, there will be a notice posted on the Helpdesk Website at the top of the page.
