A system for evaluating the special services provided to disadvantaged and handicapped students enrolled in secondary-level vocational education programs in Vermont is presented. It was developed, pilot-tested and used to evaluate several local vocational special needs projects during the 1981-82 school year. The evaluation consists of three phases. The first phase is a self-evaluation conducted by local education agency (LEA) personnel and reported to the State. The second phase is an external evaluation, conducted by an evaluation specialist who spends 2 days at the respective LEA. The third phase is the development of a project improvement plan, based on the outcomes of the evaluation activities. (Author/PN)
