1.0 PURPOSEThis document contains instructions for building fixed and delimited files to submit EDFacts Data Groups: MEP Services Table, DG684. The definition for this data group is in the row “Table Name” in Table 4.2-1.
The data in this file specification are currently collected in the Consolidated State Performance Report (CSPR), Part II which is legislatively supported by Sections 9302 and 9303 of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, as amended.
A separate document contains the XML file formats. General guidance for constructing all file types may be found in the EDFacts Workbook.
1.1 Changes from the SY 2007-08 File Specifications
Other than the editorial and guidance changes listed in the document history on page ii, there have been no other changes to this file specification.
1.2 Requirements for Submitting this Data Group

2.0 GUIDANCE FOR SUBMITTING THIS FILEThis file specification is used to collect the number of participating migrant children who receive services funded by MEP.
Which students should be reported in this file? Include children who participate in Migrant Education Programs (MEP) under Title 1, Part C including those served under continuation of services authority. Participating migrant children include:
Children who received instructional or support services funded in whole or in part with MEP funds.
Children who received a MEP–funded service, even those children who continued to receive services (1) during the term their eligibility ended, (2) for one additional school year after their eligibility ended, if comparable services were not available through other programs, and (3) in secondary school after their eligibility ended, and served through credit accrual programs until graduation (e.g., children served under the continuation of services authority, Sections 1304(e)(1–3)).
Children who were served by a “referred” service only.
Which students should not be reported in this file?Participating migrant children do not include children who were served through a Title I SWP where MEP funds were combined with those of other programs.
What are services? Services are a subset of all allowable activities that the MEP can provide through its programs and projects. Services are those educational or educationally related activities that:
(1) directly benefit a migrant child; (2) address a need of a migrant child consistent with the SEA’s comprehensive
needs assessment and service delivery plan;(3) are grounded in scientifically based research or, in the case of support services,
are a generally accepted practice; and (4) are designed to enable the program to meet its measurable outcomes and
contribute to the achievement of the State’s performance targets.
What are allowable activities that are not services?Examples of allowable activities that are not services are activities related to:
identification and recruitment activities parental involvement program evaluation professional development, administration of the programs one-time act of providing instructional packets to a child or family
July 2009 3 SY 2008-09
U.S. DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION N145 – MEP Services File Specifications v5.0
handing out leaflets to migrant families on available reading programs as part of an effort to increase the reading skills of migrant children
Although these are allowable activities, they are not services because they do not meet all of the criteria above.
New! How are student counts reported at the SEA level?Student counts are reported separately by MEP session type (either regular school year or summer/intersession). Some services are counted under more than one permitted value.
The following table explains how student counts are reported.
Permitted value Unduplicated number of participating migrant
children who received …
Scope Reported under another permitted
value?Instructional services
Any type of MEP funded instructional services
Include whether provided by either a teacher or a paraprofessional.
When provided by A teacher might be reported under reading instruction, math instruction or high school credit accrual
Reading instruction
Reading instruction provided by a teacher
Do not include reading instruction provided by a paraprofessional.
Yes, reported under instructional services
Math instruction Math instruction provided by a teacher
Do not include reading instruction provided by a paraprofessional.
Yes, reported under instructional services
High school credit accrual1
High school credit accrual provided by a teacher
Do not include instruction provided by a paraprofessional. Report only students in grades 9, 10, 11, 12, ungraded or out-of-school
Yes, reported under instructional services
Support services2 Any MEP funded support service.
If counseling services, report under counseling services
Counseling services3
Counseling services Yes, reported under support services
Referral services Educational or educationally related service funded by another non-MEP program/organization that they would not otherwise
Include children who were served by referred services regardless of whether the student received other MEP funded services (i.e. students

Permitted value Unduplicated number of participating migrant
children who received …
Scope Reported under another permitted
value?received without efforts supported by MEP funds
who received only referral services). Do not include children who were referred but received no services.
Below are some examples of how students should be reported.
Student A receives daily instructional services in a MEP program during the regular school year. Student B receives weekly instructional services in a MEP program during the regular school year. Both A and B are counted once when reporting the number of students receiving instructional services for the MEP program during the regular school year.
Student C received instructional services in a MEP program during the regular school year but did not receive such services during the summer/intersession. Student D received instructional services in a MEP program during both the regular school year and the summer/intersession. Student C is counted once when reporting the number of students receiving instructional services for the MEP program during the regular school year. Student D is counted once for both the MEP program during the regular school year and the summer/intersession program.
Student E receives both instructional services and support services during the regular school year but no services during the summer/intersession. For the regular school year, student E is counted once for instructional services and once for support services.
While students are counted only once for each session type and service, math, reading and high school credit accrual services are counted with instructional services and separately. Also, counseling services are counted with support services and separately. For example:
Student F received instructional services in math from a teacher. Student F would also be counted under both instructional services and math instruction.
Student G received instructional services in math from a paraprofessional. Student G is counted under only instructional services. Math instruction includes only math instruction when provided by a teacher.

New! How are student counts reported at the LEA level?Using the table in the question above as a guide, for the LEA level, the state determines the methodology to count individual students.
How are student counts reported by age/grade?Report children in the highest age/grade that they attained during the reporting period. For example, a child who turns 3 during the reporting period would only be reported as “Age 3 through 5 (not Kindergarten).” The permitted value “age 3 to 5” is for those children who are not in kindergarten. Report 5 year olds in kindergarten using the permitted value for “kindergarten.”
What does the permitted value “out-of-school” mean?Out of school means youth up through age 21 who are entitled to a free public education in the State but are not currently enrolled in a K through 12 institution. This could include students who have dropped out of school, youth who are working on a GED outside of a K through 12 institution, and youth who are “here-to-work” only. It does not include preschoolers.
What does the permitted value “ungraded” mean?Ungraded means the children are served in an educational unit that has no separate grades. For example, some schools have primary grade groupings that are not traditionally graded, or ungraded groupings for children with learning disabilities. In some cases, ungraded students may also include special education children, transitional bilingual students, students working on a GED through a K through 12 institution4, or those in a correctional setting.
Do other file specifications collect related data?Yes. There are several file specifications that collect data on students eligible for funding and for students served under the migrant student program. Section 5.3, "Relationships Among Files," in the EDFacts Workbook explains how these files relate to one another.
4 Students working on a GED outside of a K through 12 institution are counted as out-of-school youth.

2.1 Definitions
Counseling ServicesServices to help a student to better identify and enhance his or her educational, personal, or occupational potential; relate his or her abilities, emotions, and aptitudes to educational and career opportunities; utilize his or her abilities in formulating realistic plans; and achieve satisfying personal and social development. These activities take place between one or more counselors and one or more students as counselees, between students and students, and between counselors and other staff members. The services can also help the child address life problems or personal crisis that result from the culture of migrancy.
High School Credit Accrual Instruction in courses that accrue credits needed for high school graduation provided by a teacher for students on a regular or systematic basis, usually for a predetermined period of time. High school credit accrual includes correspondence courses taken by a student under the supervision of a teacher.
New! Referred ServicesEducational or educationally-related services provided from non-MEP programs or organizations that otherwise would not have been obtained by migrant children, but are obtained for migrant children through the efforts of MEP funded personnel. Other non-MEP local, state, and/or federal funds support the delivery of the referred services. Examples of “referred” services are health services, nutrition services, counseling services, and transportation services, provided and funded by another program or organization due to the advocacy or referral efforts of the MEP personnel (CSPR Reporting Requirements for the Title I, Part C, Migrant Education Program Glossary, 2008).
Support ServicesThese MEP-funded services include, but are not limited to, health, nutrition, counseling, and social services for migrant families; necessary educational supplies, and transportation. The one-time act of providing instructional or informational packets to a child or family does not constitute a support service.
