FY 2002 Title I And Supplemental Supplemental
LEA ID District Allocation * Educational Services** Educational Services ***
** An LEA must use up to an amount equal to 20 percent of its Title I, Part A allocation (the “20-percent reservation”) received from the State
to cover choice-related transportation costs for students who exercise a choice option and to pay for supplemental educational services for
students whose parents request such services. The 20-percent reservation may include Title I, Part A funds or funding from other Federal,
State, local, and private sources. The amount shown in this column is the Department’s estimate of the amount that affected LEAs - those
with schools identifed for improvement, corrective action, or restructuring - may have to spend to meet this requirement. Actual
expenditures will depend on such factors as the number of students exercising either a choice option or supplemental educuational services and
the costs of satisfying these requests. An LEA has discretion to determine the allocation of these funds between choice-related transportation
and supplemental educational services, except that it must spend at least one-quarter of the 20-percent reservation - or an amount equal to
5 percent of its Title I, Part A allocation - on each activity if there is demand for both from students and their parents.
*** An LEA that must arrange for supplemental educational services is required to pay, for each child receiving services, the lesser of the actual cost
of the services or an amount equal to the LEA’s Title I, Part A allocation received from the State divided by the number of poor students in the
LEA, as determined by estimates produced by the US Bureau of the Census. Thus the amount shown in this column reflects the statutory “cap”
on per-child expenditures for supplemental educational services.
