In carrying out this responsibility, the Board establishes policies and procedures for the approval of school district and local education agency (LEA) programs for entitlement to state basic education allocation funding (Chapter 180-16 WAC) . The certification process occurs through a self-reporting survey developed by the SBE. The survey is completed by school district staff and submitted with a certification signed by the superintendent (or proxy) of the school district in advance of the school year under consideration. To support districts and LEAs in responding to the reporting and certification requirement the SBE developed the Basic Education Compliance Matrix (see Table 1) . These elements are broken down into four categories. The first two are explicitly tied to basic education and factor into the Board’s certification of compliance. The last two categories are provided for information to the district and responses may be referred to the Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI) or other agencies to support districts in implementing requirements.
