Alternative Education
BOCES operates full-day and/or half-day programs
for general-education students who have been identified as having special needs
not being met in school district programs. Programs may include academics,
vocational skills, work-study, specialized activities or a combination of
these. The BOCES Report Card includes alternative education program enrollment
and outcome data for students in grades 5 through 8, as well as students in
programs leading to high school diplomas or high school equivalency diplomas.
Data Source: BOCES Survey
Alternative Education Outcomes
The objective of the alternative education program is to retain students until they graduate or return to a regular school setting. Students counted as leaving programs may have done so for a variety of reasons including relocation, medical problems, childcare, incarceration or entering other education programs.

Adult Basic Education
Based on data reported for the National Reporting System (NRS) for adult education programs, enrollment in adult basic education programs for 2006-2007 was 300.
Educational Gain
Under the NRS, educational gain is the primary goal for students in adult beginning/intermediate programs, adult secondary (low) programs, and in English for speakers of other languages programs. Students are counted as achieving educational gain if they exceed established reference points in their standardized test scores between enrollment and re-testing.

Special Education Enrollment and Tuition
When placing students, districts select among classrooms with different student/staff ratios consistent with each students Individualized Education Program (IEP). The following are four of the alternatives:
o 12 students per teacher plus one paraprofessional (12:1:1)
o 6 students per teacher plus one paraprofessional (6:1:1)
o 12 students per teacher plus four paraprofessionals (12:1+1:3)
o 8 students per teacher plus 1 paraprofessional (8:1:1)
An addendum of enrollment and tuition information will be attached to this report if this BOCES provides other options of student/staff ratios.
Tuition rates exclude the costs of related services, preschool and summer school programs. BOCES with multiple tuition rates for a program have calculated an average rate. Data source: 602 Report
