On May 19, 2003, CANEC sent out a listserv message entitled "No Child Left Behind Requires Filing an "LEA Plan" - Deadline now June 10th for Direct Funded Charter Schools Seeking Federal Funds." Please read that message immediately if you have not yet done so (http://www.uscharterschools.org/cs/canecg/view/cs_bmsg/2489). In this message we told you we would be providing more information as soon as it was available.

Additional information can now be found on the CANEC website at http://www.canec.org/NCLBReport.htm. Information at this site includes:

* A listing from the CDE of all direct funded California charter schools. With the assistance of CDE we are still trying to obtain information that will help you determine if your school is currently receiving federal funding, and through which programs. This information is critical in determining what part of the LEA Plan must be competed and what parts are not applicable. As soon as we have more information, it will be added to this website.

* Frequently asked questions, with answers, about these reports.

* Information about completion of these reports and offers of help from CANEC members. Thank you to everyone who has been so generous in the sharing of their information and experience!

Please note that questions regarding filing of the LEA Plan may be directed to Lucille Gonzales at (916) 319-0940 or by e-mail at lgonzale@cde.ca.gov. Questions regarding requirements of charter schools may be directed to Deborah Herrmann at (916) 445-1014 or by e-mail at dherrman@cde.ca.gov. CANEC cannot tell you whether you need to file these reports of not. Please address that question to Deborah Herrmann.
