QA Review Methods

The JJEEP QA review process is evidenced based, using the same data sources to evaluate the quality of educational services provided in each Department of Juvenile Justice (DJJ) educational program.

To determine QA ratings, reviewers consider the preponderance of evidence from multiple sources such as self-report information and documents and files maintained on site; interviews of educational program and school district administrators, support personnel, teachers, and students; and observation of classrooms, educational activities, and services.

Daily communication with stakeholders is a crucial component of the on-site review; discussion of preliminary findings occurs informally throughout the review process. Reviewers identify issues, make recommendations, and answer questions related to educational standards. This provides all stakeholders the opportunity to identify problematic areas and provide the reviewer with additional information that may impact the preliminary ratings.

Recommendations and commendations, as appropriate, are identified in the QA report mailed to the school district superintendent, school district contract manager, and the lead educator.
