*A participant is an adult who receives at least twelve (12) hours of instruction. Work-based project learners are not included in this table.

**See definitions for educational functioning levels.

*** See definitions of race/ethnicity categories and examples that demonstrate how to report them. A participant should be included in the racial/ethnic group to which he or she appears to belong, identifies with, or is regarded in the community as belonging. If a student does not self-identify a race/ethnicity, the program must use observer identification.

For reporting completion of Educational Functioning Level:

* Report in Column B for this row all family literacy program participants who received 12 or more hours of service. Column F should include all participants reported in Column B who advanced one or more levels.

Compute Column H for this row using the following formula:

For reporting Follow-up Measures:


Follow instructions for completing Table 5 to report these outcomes. However, include only family literacy program participants in Table 8.

Achievement of one or more of the increased involvement in children’s education or children’s literacy activities measures should be counted only once per participant. However, the specific outcome should be recorded in the subcategory and more than one outcome may be reported, so that the total for the three subcategories may be greater than the total reported for the overall category. For example, a participant who helped more frequently with schoolwork and increased contact with child’s teachers would be recorded in both categories but would be counted only once in the overall category of “increased involvement in children’s education.”

Financial Reporting Requirements for EL-Civics Funding

States expending EL-Civics funds under the conditions outlined in Program Memorandum 2000–19, issued by Ronald S. Pugsley on May 16, 2000, shall report those expenditures as follows:

In addition to submitting an annual FFR that reports all Federal and non-Federal expenditures, including those for EL-Civics, states must submit, on an annual basis, a separate FFR for EL-Civics expenditures. This EL-Civics FFR, which represents a subset of the overall FFR report, will provide the necessary information to determine whether EL-Civics expenditures are in compliance with existing statutory requirements.
