The State Performance Plan\/Annual Performance Report (SPP\/APR) is a key accountability and improvement tool under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). It evaluates how effectively each state implements IDEA requirements and works to improve educational outcomes for students with disabilities. The SPP\/APR guides efforts to strengthen special education services and supports. By focusing on areas such as graduation rates, academic achievement, and access to inclusive classrooms, the SPP\/APR helps ensure that students with disabilities have the opportunities and resources they need to succeed and thrive.

The IDEA<\/a> requires each state to develop an SPP\/APR that evaluates the state\u2019s efforts to implement the requirements and purposes of the IDEA and describes how the state will improve its implementation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The SPP\/APR includes 18 compliance and results indicators that measure student and family outcomes and other indicators that measure compliance with the requirements of the IDEA.

Based on the information provided in the SPP\/APR, information obtained through monitoring visits, and any other public information, in June 2025, the USDOE\/OSEP issued State Determinations for FFY 2023 SPP\/APR.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Grounded in the N\u0101 Hopena A\u02bbo (HA) framework, the Hawai\u02bbi State Department of Education (Department) embraces a collective responsibility\u2014ne\u2018epapa\u2014to nurture students through Hawai\u02bbi\u2019s unique cultural values. By fostering Belonging, Responsibility, Excellence, Aloha, Total Well-being, and Hawai\u02bbi (BREATH), we strengthen the connections between students, families, educators, and communities. In doing so, we uphold the rights of all learners, ensuring students, especially those with disabilities, receive a Free Appropriate Public Education (FAPE). This shared commitment honors Hawai\u02bbi\u2019s heritage while preparing students to thrive both locally and globally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In partnership with families, educators, and community organizations, the Department collaborates to establish high expectations and continually improve educational outcomes for students with disabilities. In addition to meeting monthly with the Special Education Advisory Council (SEAC) members, the Department hosts an annual engagement meeting where SEAC members, Department staff, and other educational partners come together to review the SPP\/APR indicators, examine the targets and baselines, assess progress over time, determine whether any changes are needed, and provide input on improvement strategies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Department hosted an SPP\/APR Partner Engagement Meeting on Friday, December 5, 2025 in collaboration with SEAC to review Hawai\u02bbi\u2019s SPP\/APR Federal Fiscal Year (FFY) 2024 data and discuss performance targets and improvement activities related to the implementation and purposes of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA).
