NOTE: Reg Ed = regular education; ELL = English language learner; Spec
Ed Res = Special-education resource.
1. The entries here should add up to your school’s total enrollment.
For example, even though special-education resource students
participate in the regular education
program, count them here in the special-education resource line.
“Self-contained” refers to students who are assigned to usually
smaller classrooms that contain
students of similar program classification for all or most subjects.
2. The total number of students in all programs (total in Row A)
divided by the total number of teachers assigned to the school in all
programs (total in Row B).
3. This includes special-education resource students who are
integrated most of the time and bilingual students not in separate
programs as well as teachers paid for
by Title I if they are used schoolwide as regular-classroom teachers.
4. Show grade-level breakouts only if there are significant
differences in practice across grades.
5. This includes tutoring or intervention programs as well as required
afterschool tutoring or small-group academic work.
6. Estimate based on a typical student schedule.
7. Noninstructional or maintenance time includes homeroom time,
advisory time (unless there is a structured curriculum), passing time,
lunch, and study periods
(unless there is a structured curriculum).
8. Collaborative planning time should include only those
instruction-free minutes that are scheduled for groups of teachers to
collaborate together. It does not include
individual common planning.
9. This refers to time when all teachers have instruction-free time
designated for professional development or planning purposes. This
might include early release time
(if not included above) and staff development days built into the
teacher work calendar.
