Dashboard walkthrough: grantees urged to check execution status before placing children

During a live demonstration of the DEL coordinated enrollment dashboard, Mel walked participants through where Preschool Promise grantee communications, meeting recordings and site reports are posted and how data flows from site reports into the dashboard. She drew attention to the 'executed' vs 'not executed' flags and cautioned that children cannot be placed at a new site until a grant is executed. Using the dashboard, Mel flagged Burnt River School District as an example listed as 'not executed' and urged grantees to submit update/change request forms when portal data are out of date.

Mel said she monitors procurement emails and tries to notify hubs when grants move to executed status so placements can proceed; she encouraged providers and grantees to check the portal and to request corrections when necessary so families are placed accurately and in a timely way.
