The specific, or set of related, statutory or regulatory requirements outlining Departmental oversight authority will be cited in the electronic questionnaire distributed in advance of quarterly progress check calls (e.g., Annual State and LEA Report Cards: Sections 1111(h)(1) and 1111(h)(2) of the ESEA, as amended by the ESSA).
