Abstract	This report presents a summary of the findings of fiscal year (FY) 2017 Head Start monitoring reviews, fulfilling the reporting requirement in Section 641A(f) of the Head Start Act. It highlights the enhancements made to the FY 2017 monitoring review system, summarizes grantee review outcomes, and describes the types of findings most commonly identified in FY 2017. In September 2016, the Office of Head Start (OHS) issued the first holistic revision and complete reorganization of the Head Start Program Performance Standards (HSPPS) since their original publication in 1975. OHS significantly modified the FY 2017 review schedule to provide opportunities for the Head Start community to implement the new HSPPS and for OHS to refine its system to monitor the new HSPPS. In FY 2017, OHS reduced the number of monitoring events experienced by individual grantees. OHS focused monitoring events on CLASS®, beginning in October 2016, and Eligibility, Recruitment, Selection, Enrollment, and Attendance (ERSEA), beginning in January 2017. Grantees scheduled for these events received notification of their upcoming review via letter. OHS also conducted a review of Early Head Start-Child Care Partnership (EHS-CCP) grantees new to Early Head Start. The four goals for the EHS-CCP reviews were: (1) Conduct site visits to determine how the grantee and its partners are working together to plan and provide high-quality services; (2) Evaluate the benefits of partnership funding; (3) Determine whether there is a need for additional technical assistance or a more in-depth review; and (4) Determine the fiscal oversight and integrity of partnership funds.
