What information should be included in the MOU?
The MOU should indicate the name of the LEA and private school in question. The MOU should also contain the number of LEP students identified in the private school; the types of programs, services, or products to be provided; and the corresponding costs of each item. Timelines should be given for the provision of programs, services, and products (Title IX, Part E, Section 9501). A clause should be included in the MOU specifying that if the private school does not avail itself of the scheduled programs, services, or products by a fixed date (e.g., May 1 of each year), the Title III LEP student funds set aside for the private school shall revert to the public school agency for use with public school LEP students.
