Title II and State Annual Reports

What are the Title II and State Annual Reports?

  • The Massachusetts State Annual Report (SAR) is collected pursuant to the regulations for Educator Licensure and Preparation Program Approval (603 CMR 7.03), and  
  • The federal Title II Report is collected pursuant to Section 205 of Title II of the Higher Education Opportunity Act.
  • The links above contain more information about the data collected by each.

How do organizations submit their reports?

  • Beginning in Spring 2025, organizations submit the SAR using DESE's survey and the Title II report using USED's website. Links and log-in information will be shared with each organizations' designated contacts.

What is the timeline for the Title II and State Annual Reports?

  • Both Title II and State Annual Reporting will open in February and close at the end of April each year.
  • Organizations are encouraged to have complete and accurate information in ELAR for their enrolled students and program completers for the prior school year by October. This will minimize organizations' need to reconcile Pearson's testing data in the spring.
  • Example reporting timeline for SY2024:
    • SY2024 begins September 1, 2023 and ends August 31, 2024.
    • Organizations finalize their ELAR data by October 2024.
    • Organizations complete SAR and Title II reports for SY2024, including verifying testing data, between February and April 2025.
