End of Year SCRAM Detail Report
We are fast approaching our last SCRAM count deadline. It is important that this information be as accurate and current as possible. A year-end final SCRAM report that reflects the SCRAM/IEP Services that have been received from your school to date has been sent to resource and self-contained support class (cluster) team leaders.
Special Education generates funds from this count by student days in membership (i.e., how many days they were entered in your program). The resource or self-contained support class (cluster) team report should list all current students, including primary Guidance and primary Speech-Language students. Please check each student for the following information:
Traditional School Deadline: Monday, May 13, 2019
Year-Round School Deadline: Friday, May 31, 2019
Please note that separate reports have been sent to each resource team AND each cluster team (if applicable). SLPs, Guidance Specialists and other itinerant providers will need to work with both special education teams to check and complete the requested information. Since one copy is being sent per “team” (i.e., resource or cluster), it is critical that the list be checked with other team members within your school. Please do not send multiple copies of the report back. Each team member must review and initial the original report before returning it to the Special Education Department.
Submit any SCRAM changes and/or corrections AND the signed current report(s) to Amanda Hamblin through District mail at the District Office. All completed reports and documents must be received in the Special Education Office by the end of the day on the specified due date.
If you have questions, please contact the Teacher Specialist assigned to your school or Amanda Hamblin at (801) 567-8176.

Please know that your assistance in completing this information accurately is critical, as it directly impacts Special Education funding!
