Successful re-competed programs are up for new mini-review called Head Start Key Indicator (HSKI) Screener toolkit. This screener talks about 17 Key Indicators. Standard full reviews are subject to 15 indicators and the OHS presentation slide from the FY 2014 Grantee Webcast gives us 14. While indicator numbers vary, these are critical for programs under review.

These 14 Core Head Start Key Indicators are:

T/TA for GB and PC (GOV2.1)
GB fiscal and legal oversight of program policies (GOV2.3)
Reporting to GB and PC (GOV3.1)
Ongoing Monitoring (SYS2.1)
Standards of conduct (SYS3.2)
Teacher qualifications (CDE4.1)
Criminal record checks of staff (SYS3.4)
