Supplemental Educational Service Information
Frederick Douglass Elementary, Seaford Middle School, and Seaford High School are required during the 2011-2012 school year to offer Supplemental Educational Services to students that qualify for Free and Reduced Lunch.
What are Supplemental Educational Services?
Under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA), students from low-income families attending schools that do not make adequate yearly progress for three consecutive years are eligible to receive Supplemental Educational Services (SES). School Districts are responsible for funding these services, which must be provided outside the normal school day, through their Title I, Part A funds. State education agencies must develop and apply objective criteria to create approved lists of SES providers.
