V. MONITORING
To ensure accountability and effectiveness in enforcing the civil rights laws, OCR monitors complaint and compliance review resolution agreements to ensure the commitments made by school districts, colleges, universities and other appropriate entities in those agreements are carried out. During FY 2006, OCR monitored a total of 1,037 cases. OCR also completed the monitoring of a number of resolution agreements and, after ensuring that all commitments had been fully implemented, closed 365 cases—315 complaints and 50 compliance reviews.
