Fiscal Detail and Notes
The Department of Education may incur additional costs to conduct critical reviews of contracts and to potentially perform rigorous, statistical analyses of new initiatives related to students to determine the initiatives' effects on producing clearly identified student outcomes.  The cost to the department and it's ability to absorb the cost without impacting other programs and services can not be determined at this time.
