Phase 3 LEAs - Your Comprehensive Plan is due TOMORROW!
As a friendly reminder, Phase 3 comprehensive plans need to be submitted by tomorrow, November 30, 2018. At this time, you should be wrapping up the 28-day public review period and preparing to enter signatures from your Board President and Superintendent/CEO.
- When all final touches have been made to your plan, the Board President and the Superintendent/CEO should visit the Plan Submission section of the web application to sign and affirm that the contents of the Comprehensive Plan are true and correct.
- After signing the plan, a member with “Planning Leader” access should visit the Plan Submission>Status and History section in order to “Check the Comprehensive Plan for Issues”. If all issues are resolved, a comment box will appear for your optional comments to the PDE reviewers as well as the Submit button. Please make sure your LEA selects the Submit button to ensure the plan is delivered to the PDE reviewer’s queue.
Should you have any questions about this process, please contact our helpdesk at paplanning@caiu.org.
