Federal Programs Access & Coaching

With precision, we help private schools and private school networks to attain for their students (and teachers) their equitable share of federally-funded services.

We work with you and your leaders to:

  • Initiate, manage, and develop the relationship that, as required by federal law, should be operative between private schools and their respective local public-school districts (LEAs), including the exchange of necessary information and consultation meeting preparation and follow-up
  • Identify opportunities for immediate enforcement measures and collaborate with your LEA to amicably resolve any extant enforcement lapses
  • Represent school leaders at consultation meetings, and, on school leaders’ behalf, develop, manage, and utilize – for the direct and indirect benefit of private school students and teachers – cooperative relationships with the LEA and, as necessary, state education agency (SEA) officials
  • Develop and maintain a federal grants allocation and expenditure tracking system, and provide quarterly updates about grant expenditures
  • Develop and maintain an ESSA and IDEA budget tracking system by establishing and maintaining with LEA staffs a positive working relationship and invoicing processing system
  • In states with state-funded special education programs to which private school students also have access by law, attain for private school students their lawful and equitable participation in those selfsame, state-provided services.
