2016-2017 Timeline

ESEA requirements under the NCLB to those

under the ESSA, ED has identified the following

comply during the 2016-2017 school year because

those provisions are not continued under ESSA:

(Partial list that applies to Title I, Part A)

2. Section 1111(h)(6)(B)(ii) of the ESEA, as amended by

NCLB, which requires a school to notify parents when their

child has been assigned to, or has been taught for four or

more consecutive weeks by, a teacher who is not highly

qualified (see D-3);

3. Section 1117 of the ESEA, as amended by NCLB, which

requires a State to provide certain types of school supports

and recognition (see C-6);

25

4. Section 1119 of the ESEA, as amended by NCLB, which requires that each LEA hire highly qualified teachers; that each State and LEA report on progress toward all teachers being highly qualified; and that each LEA ensure that paraprofessionals meet certain qualifications and perform certain duties (see C-7);

5. Section 2141 of the ESEA, as amended by NCLB, which requires an LEA not making progress toward all teachers being highly qualified to create and implement an improvement plan and requires the State to provide technical assistance to such LEA (see D-2);
