Due to the fact that the federal budget pages and other critical forms necessary to complete the Arkansas Consolidated School Improvement Planning (ACSIP) process and application were not available from the vendor until recently, and in response to requests from numerous districts regarding insufficient time allocation to fully develop the district's ACSIP, the School Improvement Section is responding by extending the submission dates on the new web-based program from September 15, 2005 to October 1, 2005.
This in no way alters any timeline dates for other reports developed and/or required by the Arkansas Department of Education.
