PSAP Verification Phase; TSAP Verification Phase; SDRP Verification Phase; Redistricting Data Program Verification Phase

Dear Mapping Coordinator,

This e-mail is to notify you that your state's verification materials for
the 2009-2010 School District Review Program (SDRP) are available for
review.

Unlike the Annotation Phase of the program, no CDs or DVDs will be mailed
to you for the Verification Phase of the SDRP. All verification materials
and guidelines for your state have been posted to the 2009-2010 SDRP
website located at: www.census.gov/geo/www/schdist/sch_dist.html.
Step-by-step guidelines have been developed to assist you in accessing
your materials and completing your review.

To access your verification materials and guidelines on the SDRP website,
click on the Verification Materials hyperlink. Then click on the
hyperlink for your state. You will see two folders; one named "files" and
one named "maps".

The folder named "files" contains all the applicable school district
listings (text files) for your state (which should be reviewed and
verified) and also the following guidelines in PDF format:

School District Review Program Verification Procedures
Att_C_Paper_Map_Guidelines

The "maps" folder contains PDF maps only of those counties for which
updates were submitted, not the entire state as was done for the
Annotation Phase.

We suggest that you begin by reading the "School District Review Program
Verification Procedures," which will provide you with background
information on the Verification Phase.

Your verification materials include all submissions received by the Census
Bureau by the October 30, 2009 deadline. Any submissions received after
the deadline are not reflected in the verification materials, but will be
included in the poverty estimates scheduled to be released in November
2010.

All verification updates must be received by the Census Bureau no later
than Friday, April 2, 2010.

Please feel free to contact any member of the School District Team with
questions regarding the program or procedures.

Thank you again for your participation.
