The resources in this schedule are proposed for later transmittal
under proposed legislation to revise and reauthorize programs currently
authorized under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 and
the Goals 2000: Educate America Act, as amended. Proposed appropriations
language for Small, Safe and Successful Schools is provided to continue
appropriations policy established in FY 2000. Appropriations language
for the remainder of the account will be transmitted at a later date.
21st Century community learning centers.--Funds would support grants
to centers providing school-based academic and recreational services for
youths and other members of the community. The budget expands this
program dramatically to provide more high-quality extended learning
opportunities for children and to make after or summer school programs
universally available to help turn around failing schools.
Small, safe and successful high schools.--Funds would be used to
assist high schools to create smaller, safer learning environments
through such strategies as schools-within-schools, career academies, or
magnet schools.
Educational Technology
Technology Literacy Challenge Fund.--Funds would be provided by
formula to States, which in turn award grants competitively to local
educational agencies to acquire computers, connections, training,
and software to achieve the President's four goals for fully
integrating technology into classrooms.
Next generation technology innovation.--The proposal would
combine the Technology Innovation Challenge Grants and the Star
Schools program into a new program designed to develop and expand
cutting-edge technologies such as Web-based instruction to improve
instruction. Funds would be used for competitive awards to consortia
that include at least one State or local educational agency and at
least one institution of higher education, for-profit business,
museum, library, or other entity with relevant experience.
Regional technology in education consortia.--Under the proposal,
funds would continue to support technical assistance to promote the
effective use of technology in education.
Technology leadership activities.--Funds would support
leadership activities designed to promote the effective use of
educational technology, and to strengthen and coordinate the
Department's technology initiatives and other Federal and private
sector efforts.
Ready to learn digital television.--Under the proposal, funds
would continue to support the development of educational programming
and outreach activities promoting literacy and school readiness for
preschool and elementary school children and their parents.
Telecommunications program for professional development.--
Currently, funds support a national telecommunications-based
demonstration project to improve teaching in mathematics. The
reauthorization proposal would expand the program to include
teaching in core content areas, not just in mathematics.
Community technology centers.--Funds support computer learning
centers for students and adults in low-income neighborhoods.
Preparing tomorrow's teachers to use technology.--Funds would
support grants to consortia of States, colleges of education, and
other public and private entities to prepare new teachers to use
technology effectively in their classrooms.
Recognition and reward.--Funds would be used to reward States
that are improving student achievement; narrowing the achievement
gap between high- and low-performing students; and that have
strategies in place for continuous improvement.

Of the funds to be made available under this heading, $250,000,000
of funds for part A of title I of the Elementary and Secondary Education
Act of 1965 shall be allocated among the States in the same proportion
as funds are allocated among them under section 1122, to carry out
sections 1116(c), 1116(d), and 1117 of that Act: Provided, That each
State shall allocate at least 70 percent of such funds to local
educational agencies to carry out section 1116(c), giving priority first
to local educational agencies with schools identified for corrective
action under section 1116(c)(5) and second to local educational agencies
with schools identified for program improvement under section 1116(c)(1)
that are farthest from meeting State standards, which those agencies
shall use for the benefit of students in those schools: Provided
further, That each State shall use the remainder of such funds in the
following priority: (1) to take corrective action, under section
[[Page 347]]
1116(c)(6)(B), with respect to schools and local educational agencies
described in that section; (2) to take corrective action with respect to
local educational agencies in accordance with section 1116(d)(6); and
(3) to provide technical assistance to remaining schools that are
farthest from meeting State standards: Provided further, That a State
educational agency shall require any local educational agency receiving
funds under part A, title I, except where prohibited by State or local
law (including school board-approved local educational agency policy),
to permit students attending any school identified for corrective action
under section 1116(c)(5) to transfer, at no cost to the student, to
another public school of the agency that has not been so identified, in
addition to taking at least one other action described in section
1116(c)(5)(B), except that no agency may use more than 10 percent of the
funds, if any, it receives from the $250,000,000 reserved above for the
costs of transportation.

The resources in this schedule are proposed for later transmittal
under proposed legislation to revise and reauthorize programs currently
authorized under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA), as
amended. Proposed appropriations language for the Title I Accountability
Fund is provided to continue and modify appropriations policy
established in 2000. Appropriations language for the remainder of the
account will be transmitted at a later date.
Under the Administration's proposal for Title I of that Act, funds
would be provided to States and to local school districts for the
activities shown below.
Grants to local education agencies.--Funds would be allocated
through the Basic, Concentration, and Targeted grants formulas for local
programs that help Title I students meet high standards, hold school
districts and schools accountable for improved student achievement and
reduce the number of failing schools, support schoolwide reforms and the
use of research-based strategies for improving teaching and learning,
dedicate more resources to professional development, and target funds to
high-poverty schools. To improve Title I accountability, funds would be
included to help turn around low-achieving schools in all States.
Even start.--Funds would be provided by formula to States, which
would award grants for local projects to partnerships of local
educational agencies and other organizations to operate family literacy
projects integrating early childhood education, adult literacy, and
parenting education for low-income families with children under age 8.
State agency migrant program.--Funds would be provided by formula to
States for educational services to children of migratory farmworkers and
fishers. Funds and services would be concentrated on children who have
moved within the past 36 months.
State agency neglected and delinquent program.--Funds would be
provided by formula to States for educational services to children and
youth under age 21 in State neglected, delinquent, or adult correction
facilities. Services would help institutionalized youth achieve to the
same challenging standards established for students in local public
schools.
Demonstrations of comprehensive school reform.--Funds would be
provided by formula to States, which in turn award grants to local
educational agencies to help participating schools initiate and
implement comprehensive school reforms based on approaches and methods
grounded in reliable research and practice.

The resources in this schedule are proposed for later transmittal
under the proposed legislation to revise and reauthorize programs
currently authorized under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act,
as amended. Under the Administration proposal for Impact Aid, funds
would be provided to assist local educational agencies that are affected
by Federal activities. Payments would be made to local educational
agencies that educate (1) children of members of the uniformed services
living on Federal property; (2) children living on Indian lands; (3)
children of Federal employees who both live and work on Federal
property; and (4) children of foreign military officers living on
Federal property.
Basic support payments.--Payments would be made on behalf of
approximately 292,000 federally connected children enrolled in
approximately 950 local educational agencies across the country. The
request would provide an average payment of approximately $2,500 for
each of these federally connected children.
Payments for children with disabilities.--Payments would be made for
additional assistance to local educational agencies educating federally
connected children with disabilities. Approximately 33,000 such children
are enrolled in school districts across the country. The request would
provide approximately $1,200 in additional assistance for the education
of each of these children.
Facilities maintenance.--Funds would be used to provide emergency
repairs for school facilities that serve federally connected military
students and are owned by the Department of Education. Funds would also
be used to transfer the facilities to local educational agencies.
Construction.--Payments would provide assistance for school
construction for local educational agencies in which at least 50 percent
of the students reside on Indian lands.

The Administration has proposed legislation to reauthorize the
Elementary and Secondary Education Act and portions of the Stewart B.
McKinney Homeless Assistance Act. When new authorizing legislation is
enacted, resources will be requested for most programs in the School
Improvement Programs account. See the ``Legislative proposal, not
subject to PAYGO''.
Training and advisory services.--Grants are made to regional equity
assistance centers that provide technical assistance to school districts
in addressing equity in education related to issues of race, gender, and
national origin.
Charter schools.--Grants are awarded to State educational agencies
and charter schools to support the planning, design, initial
implementation, and dissemination of information regarding model charter
schools. These schools are created by teachers, parents, and members of
the community, and are exempt from certain local, State, and Federal
regulations.
Advanced placement incentives.--Funds are used by States to pay for
advanced placement test fees for low-income students who are enrolled in
advanced placement classes. In States in which no eligible low-income
individual is required to pay more than a nominal fee to take advanced
placement tests, funds may be used for other purposes to increase the
number of low-income students taking these tests, such as curriculum
development and training of teachers for advanced placement courses.

Bureau of Indian Affairs to support standards-based reform and sustained
and intensive high-
[[Page 351]]
quality professional development for educators in the core academic
subjects.
School leadership initiative.--This new program would fund centers
that would provide professional development to principals and other
school and district level administrators.
National activities for the improvement of teaching and school
leadership.--This program will continue to support projects previously
funded by Eisenhower Professional Development Federal activities,
including the National Clearinghouse for Mathematics and Science
Education and the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards.
Eisenhower regional mathematics and science education consortia.--
This program would continue to support regional consortia to disseminate
exemplary mathematics and science instructional materials and provide
technical assistance to help teachers and administrators implement new
teaching methods and assessment tools.
Hometown teachers initiative.--This new program would encourage high
school students to become teachers and support them in their
undergraduate teacher training programs and their first years in the
classroom.
Higher standards, higher pay.--This initiative would award
competitive grants to high-poverty school districts that implement peer
review systems to attract and retain high-quality teachers and
principals through better pay.
Teacher quality incentives.--This new program would encourage the
use of fully certified and licensed teachers and discourage out-of-field
teaching.
Transition to teaching: Troops to teachers.--This program would fund
the Troops to Teachers program, which encourages and supports former
members of the military to become teachers, and would expand the program
to encourage other mid-career professionals to become teachers.
Early childhood educator professional development.--Under this new
program, funds would be awarded competitively to partnerships of higher
education institutions and other entities to create high-quality
professional development for early childhood educators and caregivers
working in communities with high concentrations of young children living
in poverty.
Class size reduction.--Formula grants would be provided to local
school districts to help them carry out effective approaches to reducing
class sizes with highly qualified teachers. School districts give

areas, and the Bureau of Indian Affairs to help create and maintain
drug-free, safe, and orderly environments for learning in and around
schools by supporting effective, research-based approaches to drug
and violence prevention
National programs.--Funds would support activities to promote
drug-free, safe, and orderly learning environments for students at
all educational levels. Such activities may include programs
implemented in conjunction with other Federal agencies, such as the
Safe Schools/Healthy Students initiative, that support local
educational agencies and communities in developing and implementing
comprehensive programs that create safe, disciplined, and drug-free
learning environments and promote healthy childhood development;
recruiting, hiring, and training program coordinators to assist
school districts in implementing high-quality, effective, research-
based drug and violence prevention programs; and other forms of
training and technical assistance, demonstrations, and direct
services to school districts, as well as developing and
disseminating prevention and education materials and evaluating the
effectiveness of drug and violence prevention programs.
Project SERV (School Emergency Response to Violence).--A new
Federal response to violent deaths and other crises in schools under
which the Department of Education, in collaboration with the
Departments of Justice and Health and Human Services and the Federal
Emergency Management Administration, would provide immediate
emergency assistance to a community following a school-related
violent or traumatic incident to help identify and meet urgent and
unplanned local needs, such as additional security personnel,
emergency mental health crisis counseling, and longer-term
counseling to students, faculty, and families.
Other Programs.--
Inexpensive book distribution.--Funds would support reading
motivation activities, including the distribution of free books to
children.
Arts in education.--Funds would support education activities of the
Kennedy Center and VSA arts, as well as collaborative, arts education
programs with the National Endowment for the Arts.
Magnet schools assistance.--Grants would be made to local
educational agencies to establish and operate magnet school programs
that are part of approved desegregation plans.
Education for homeless children and youth.--Formula grants would be
provided to States, outlying areas, and the Bureau of Indian Affairs to
provide educational and support services that enable homeless children
and youth to enroll in, attend, and achieve success in school.

education services to Native Hawaiians in the areas of family-based
education, special education, gifted and talented education, higher
education, curriculum development, teacher training and recruitment, and
community-based learning.

education services to Alaska Natives in the areas of educational
planning, curriculum development, teacher training, teacher recruitment,
student enrichment, and home-based instruction for pre-school children.
Opportunities to improve our Nation's schools (OPTIONS).--Under this
new program, grants would be awarded to States and local educational
agencies to support the planning, design, and implementation of public
school choice projects.
Strengthening technical assistance capacity grants.--Under this new
program, funds would be allocated by formula to States and large school
districts to purchase, and to strengthen their capacity to acquire and
use, technical assistance that best fits their needs to increase
opportunities for all children to achieve the State's academic
performance standards and to implement the State's or district's plan or
policies for comprehensive standards-based education reform.
Parental information resource centers.--Funds would be provided for
centers in all States to provide training, information, and support to
State and local educational agencies and schools--particularly high-
poverty, low-performing schools--to remove barriers to parent
involvement in their child's education.

authorized under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act.
Reading Excellence.--The Reading Excellence Act funds programs to
provide children with the readiness skills and support they need in
early childhood to learn to read once they enter school, to help ensure
that all children read well and independently by the end of the third
grade, to support programs to assist kindergarten children who are not
ready for the transition to first grade, and to improve the
instructional practices of teachers and other instructional staff in
elementary schools. States that receive competitive grants will make
subgrants on a competitive basis to school districts to help them
provide professional development opportunities for professional staff,
operate tutoring programs, and provide family literacy services.

Funds made available under this account were reappropriated by the
Supplemental Appropriations Act, 1987 (Public Law 100-71) from funds
enjoined in United States of America v. Board of Education of the City
of Chicago. The funds were reappropriated for the specific purpose of
settling this case. The funds are used by the Chicago Board of Education
to implement Project CANAL (Creating A New Approach to Learning), the
project approved by the court to support the Board's desegregation
efforts.
The Department of Education provides these funds to the Chicago
Board of Education in annual increments upon receipt and approval of an

School Renovation.--Under the Administration's proposal, grants and
loans would be provided to high-need local educational agencies (LEAs)
that have little or no capacity to fund urgent repairs. Grants would be
provided to the neediest LEAs, including $50 million to LEAs in which 50
percent or more of the students reside on certain Indian lands, and $125
million to other school districts. The loan subsidy would generate
approximately $6.5 billion in 7-year, no-interest loans for school
renovation in high-need LEAs. Renovation funded through these loans and
grants could include such projects as repairs to roofs, climate control
systems, or plumbing.

The resources in this schedule are proposed for later transmittal
under proposed legislation to revise and reauthorize programs currently
authorized under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965.
Bilingual education.--The bilingual education programs would provide
assistance to local educational agencies and other entities to develop
and enhance their capacity to provide high-quality instructional
programs to children and youth of limited English proficiency. Projects
would be designed to teach English and to assist these students in
achieving the same challenging State content and performance standards
expected of all children and youth. Aid would also support training
education personnel to serve limited English proficient children,
building State capacity to improve educational services for these
children, and information dissemination, studies, and evaluations.
Foreign language assistance.--The foreign language assistance
program would provide competitive grants to States and local educational
agencies that are linked to State foreign language standards and are
designed to improve the quality of foreign language instruction for
elementary and secondary school students.
Immigrant education.--The immigrant education program would provide
grants to school districts to help finance educational services for
immigrant students. Participation would be limited to districts with at
least 500 immigrant students or districts in which immigrant children
represent at least 3 percent of the enrollment. Awards would be made to
State educational agencies, which would make subgrants to local
educational agencies. States would be authorized to distribute these
funds on either a formula or discretionary grant basis.

The goal of this program is to help States provide a
comprehensive system of early intervention services that will
enhance family and child outcomes.
National activities.--These activities include research,
demonstration, personnel preparation, technical assistance, grants to
States to promote systems change, and other activities to support State
efforts to improve results for children with disabilities under the
State grants programs.

Vocational rehabilitation State grants.--The basic State grants
program provides Federal matching funds to State vocational
rehabilitation (VR) agencies to assist individuals with physical or
mental impairments to become gainfully employed. Services are tailored
to the specific needs of the individual. Priority is given to serving
those with the most significant disabilities. Current law requires that
between 1.0 percent and 1.5 percent of the funds appropriated for the VR
State grants program be set aside for Grants for Indians in 2001.
The table below presents national data on selected performance
measures for the VR State grants program. The data are based on the
number of individuals whose service records were closed in fiscal years
1997 (347,601) and 1998 (359,877). The 2001 target is to increase the
number of individuals with disabilities achieving an employment outcome
by one percent over the previous year and to increase the employment
outcome rate to 63 percent.
CONSUMER OUTCOMES (CASES CLOSED)
1997 actual 1998 actual
Individuals achieving employment
outcomes............................... 211,503 223,668
Percent with significant disabilities.. 79.6% 82.6%
Employment outcomes as a percent all of
individuals receiving services......... 60.8% 62.1%
Client assistance State grants.--Formula grants are made to States
to provide assistance in informing and advising clients and applicants
of benefits available under the Rehabilitation Act and, if requested, to
pursue legal or administrative remedies to ensure the protection of the
rights of individuals with disabilities.
Training.--Grants are made to States and public or nonprofit
agencies and organizations, including institutions of higher education,
to increase the number of skilled personnel available for employment in
the field of rehabilitation and to upgrade the skills of those already
employed.
Demonstration and training programs.--Grants are made for programs
that expand, improve, or further the purpose of activities supported
under the Rehabilitation Act.
Migrant and seasonal farmworkers.--Grants are made to State VR
agencies and other nonprofit or local agencies to provide comprehensive
vocational rehabilitation services to migrant and seasonal farmworkers
with disabilities. Data for 1998 indicate that more than 9,200 migrant
and seasonal farmworkers were served.
Recreational programs.--Grants are made to provide individuals with
disabilities with recreational and related activities to aid in their
employment, mobility, independence, socialization, and community
integration.
Protection and advocacy of individual rights.--Formula grants are
made to State protection and advocacy systems to protect the legal and
human rights of individuals with disabilities.
Projects with industry (PWI).--Grants are made to a variety of
public and private organizations to facilitate the establishment of
partnerships between rehabilitation service providers and business and
industry in order to create and expand employment and career advancement
opportunities for individuals with disabilities. In 1998, PWI projects
placed in competitive employment approximately 49 percent (6,792) of the
13,811 individuals with disabilities served by the 104 projects. The
2001 target for this program is to place 62 percent of the individuals
served in competitive employment.
Supported employment State grants.--Formula grants are made to
assist States in developing programs with public and nonprofit
organizations to provide supported employment services for individuals
with the most significant disabilities who require on-going support
services to enter or retain competitive employment. In 1998, 74 percent
of individuals with a supported employment goal achieved a competitive
employment outcome. The 2001 target for this program is for 76 percent
to achieve competitive employment outcomes.
Independent living.--Grants are awarded to States and nonprofit
agencies to assist individuals with significant disabilities in their
achievement of self-determined independent living goals. Grants are also
awarded to provide support services to older blind individuals to
increase their ability to care for their own needs. Performance
indicators focus on customer satisfaction, achievement of individual
goals, and broader systemic reforms in the community.
[[Page 359]]
Program improvement.--Funds are used to promote broad-based planning
and coordination, improve accountability, and enhance the Department's
ability to address critical areas of national significance in achieving
the goals of the Rehabilitation Act. Examples of program improvement
activities include technical assistance, dissemination, and performance
measurement activities.
Evaluation.--Studies are conducted to evaluate the impact and
effectiveness of various programs authorized under the Rehabilitation
Act. The multi-year national longitudinal study of the Vocational
Rehabilitation State grants program is scheduled for completion in 2000.
Expanded study findings on employment retention will be available in
2002.
Helen Keller National Center for Deaf-Blind Youths and Adults.--The
Center provides services to deaf-blind youths and adults and provides
training and technical assistance to professional and allied personnel
at its national headquarters center and through its regional
representatives and affiliate agencies.
National Institute on Disability and Rehabilitation Research.--The
Institute carries out a comprehensive and coordinated program of
rehabilitation research and related activities. Through grants and
contracts, it supports the conduct and dissemination of research aimed
at improving the lives of individuals with disabilities.
Assistive technology.--Activities include the Assistive Technology
State grant program, protection and advocacy services, and technical
assistance designed to develop and implement consumer-responsive
comprehensive statewide programs of technology-related assistance for
individuals with disabilities. Grants also are made to States to
establish alternative loan financing programs to increase access to
assistive technology for individuals with disabilities.

The College Housing and Academic Facilities Loan (CHAFL) Program
account and the Historically Black College and University (HBCU) Capital
Financing Program account are consolidated for presentation purposes
only. The College Housing and Academic Facilities Loans and Historically
Black College and University Capital Financing programs will continue to
be administered separately.
The College Housing and Academic Facilities Loans (CHAFL) Program.--
The Department began issuing CHAFL facility loans in 1987 and made its
last awards in 1993. Prior to 1987, loans were made under two separate
loan programs: Higher Education Facilities Loans (HEFL) and College
Housing Loans (CHL). The loans support financing for the reconstruction,
renovation, and construction of academic facilities, housing and other
postsecondary education facilities for students and faculty. Although
the Department no longer makes new loans, the Department continues to be
responsible for conducting architectural and engineering reviews before
disbursing payments to institutions and servicing the outstanding loans
under an agreement with the Federal Reserve Bank.
In prior years, funding for CHAFL administration was in this
account, and funding for CHL and HEFL administration was split between
the Department's Program Administration account and the liquidating
accounts for these two programs. Beginning in 1998, the Department
consolidated funding for administrative activities for CHAFL, HEFL, and
CHL under a single account. The 2001 request includes funding for
personnel and other discretionary costs for all three programs. Loan
servicing and architectural and engineering services for the HEFL and
CHL programs are funded from their respective liquidating accounts.
Historically Black College and University Capital Financing
Program.--The Historically Black College and University (HBCU) Capital
Financing Program provides HBCUs with access to capital financing for
the repair, renovation, and construction of classrooms, libraries,
laboratories, dormitories, instructional equipment, and research
instrumentation. The Higher Education Amendments of 1992 granted the
Department authority to enter into insurance agreements with a private
for-profit Designated Bonding Authority to guarantee no more than
$375,000,000 in outstanding principal and unpaid accrued interest
combined. The bonding authority issues the bonds and maintains an escrow
account in which 5 percent of each institution's principal is deposited.
This amount is estimated to be sufficient to cover all potential
delinquencies and defaults.
Since the first loan was issued in 1996, a total of 7 loans for $46
million have been made. Additional loans are expected in 2000 and 2001.
No subsidy appropriations are required. The 2001 budget provides funds
for continuing Federal administrative activities only.

The College Housing and Academic Facilities Loans Liquidating
Account records all cash flows to and from the Government resulting from
direct loans made prior to 1992 to schools and colleges for the
reconstruction, renovation, and construction of academic facilities,
housing and other postsecondary education facilities. Loans were made
under three separate loan programs: Higher Education Facilities Loans,
College Housing Loans, and College Housing and Academic Facilities
Loans. Beginning in 1998, the Department consolidated the three loan
programs into the CHAFL Liquidating account for budget presentation
purposes only. The three individual programs continue to be administered
separately.

In 1997, the Federal Financing Bank (FFB) began purchasing bonds
issued by the HBCU Designated Bonding Authority. Under the policies
governing Federal credit programs, bonds purchased by the FFB and
supported by the Department of Education with a letter of credit create
the equivalent of a Federal direct loan. For Budget purposes, all FFB
loans shall be treated as direct loans. HBCU bonds are still available
for purchase by the private sector, and these will be treated as loan
guarantees. However, the Department anticipates that all HBCU loans will
be financed by the FFB.

Student Financial Assistance
For carrying out subparts 1, 3 and 4 of part A, part C and part E of
title IV of the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended,
[$9,435,000,000] $10,258,000,000, which shall remain available through
September 30, [2001] 2002.
The maximum Pell Grant for which a student shall be eligible during
award year [2000-2001] 2001-2002 shall be [$3,300] $3,500: Provided,
That notwithstanding section 401(g) of the Act, if the Secretary
determines, prior to publication of the payment schedule for such award
year, that the amount included within this appropriation for Pell Grant
awards in such award year, and any funds available from the fiscal year
[1999] 2000 appropriation for Pell Grant awards, are insufficient to
satisfy fully all such awards for which students are eligible, as
calculated under section 401(b) of the Act, the amount paid for each
such award shall be reduced by either a fixed or variable percentage, or
by a fixed dollar amount, as determined in accordance with a schedule of
reductions established by the Secretary for this purpose.
[For an additional amount for ``student financial assistance'' for
payment of allocations to institutions of higher education for Federal
Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants for award years 1999-2000
and 2000-2001, made under title IV, part A, subpart 3, of the Higher
Education Act of 1965, as amended, $10,000,000: Provided, That
notwithstanding any other provision of law, the Secretary of Education
may waive or modify any statutory or regulatory provision applicable to
the Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant program and the
determination of need for such grants, that the Secretary deems
necessary to assist individuals who suffered financial harm resulting
from the hurricanes, and the flooding associated with the hurricanes,
that struck the eastern United States in August and September 1999, and
who, at the time of the disaster were residing, attending an institution
of higher education, or employed within an area affected by such a
disaster on the date which the President declared the existence of a
major disaster (or, in the case of an individual who is a dependent
student, whose parent or stepparent suffered financial harm from such
disaster, and who resided, or was employed in such an area at that
time): Provided further, That notwithstanding section 437 of the General
Education Provisions Act (20 U.S.C. 1232) and section 553 of title 5,
United States Code, the Secretary shall, by notice in the Federal
Register, exercise this authority, through publication of waivers or
modifications of statutory and regulatory provisions, as the Secretary
deems necessary to assist such individuals: Provided further, That
notwithstanding section 413D of the Higher Education Act of 1965,
allocations from such additional amount shall not be taken into account
in determining institutional allocations under such section in future
years: Provided further, That the entire amount made available under
this paragraph is designated by the Congress as an emergency requirement
pursuant to section 251(b)(2)(A) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency
Deficit Control Act of 1985, and that the entire amount shall be
available only to the extent an official budget request for the entire
amount, that includes designation of the entire amount as an emergency
requirement pursuant to the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit
Control Act of 1985, is transmitted by the President to the Congress.]

\1\ Includes in all years institutional matching share of defaulted
notes assigned from institutions to the Education Department.
The Administration's 2001 budget for the SFA account is $10.258
billion, an increase of $883 million, or 9.4 percent, over the 2000
appropriation, which together with matching funds (less allowable
administrative costs) would provide more than $11.7 billion in aid
available to an estimated 8.6 million students.
Federal Pell Grants.--Undergraduate students establish eligibility
for these grants under award and need determination rules set out in the
authorizing statute and the annual appropriations act.
The Administration proposes $8.356 billion, an increase of $716
million or 9.4 percent over the 2000 appropriation level, for the Pell
Grant program in 2001, to raise the maximum award for the 2001-2002
award year to $3,500--the highest ever and an increase of $200 from the
2000-2001 level of $3,300. Approximately 3.9 million students would
receive grants under the program in the 2001-2002 award year.
Campus-based programs.--The Federal Supplemental Educational
Opportunity Grants, Federal Work-Study, and Federal Perkins Loan
programs are called the ``campus-based'' programs because participating
institutions are responsible for administering the programs on their own
campuses. These programs provide aid administrators with considerable
flexibility in the packaging of financial aid awards to best meet the
needs of students.
Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants.--Federal funds
are awarded by formula to qualifying institutions, which use these funds
to award grants to undergraduate students. While institutions have
discretion in awarding these funds, they are required to give priority
to Pell Grant recipients and other students with exceptional need. The
Federal share of such grants may not exceed 75 percent of the total
grant. The Administration proposes $691 million for the SEOG program in
2001, an increase of $60 million or 9.5 percent over the 2000 level.
This level of funding would provide approximately $875 million in
available aid to an estimated 1.2 million needy students.
Federal Work-Study.--Federal funds are awarded by formula to
qualifying institutions, which develop and provide part-time jobs for
eligible undergraduate and graduate students with demonstrated need.
Hourly earnings under the program must be at least equal to the Federal
minimum wage. Federal funding in most cases pays 75 percent of a
student's hourly wages, with the remaining 25 percent paid by the
employer. An institution must use at least 7 percent of its Federal
allocation to compensate students employed in community service
activities. An institution's community service activities must include
at least one tutoring or family literacy project. The Secretary has
waived the required 25 percent employer funding match for students
working in the America Reads Challenge as reading tutors of children and
in family literacy programs, and for students working as math tutors for
children in kindergarten through 9th grade in support of the America
Counts Challenge. To continue to provide 1 million students the
opportunity to work their way through college, the Administration
proposes $1.011 billion, an increase of $77 million over the 2000
appropriation, for the Work-Study program.
Perkins Loan Program.--Institutions award low-interest loans from
institutional revolving funds, which are comprised of Federal Capital
Contributions, institutional matching funds, and student repayments on
outstanding loans. The Administration proposes $100 million in new
budget authority for the Perkins loan program, the same as the 2000
level. This level of funding would provide nearly $1.1 billion in
available aid to some 676,000 needy undergraduate and graduate students
in the 2001-2002 award year.
Perkins Loan Program--Cancellations.--Under the Perkins Loan
cancellation program, institutional revolving funds are reimbursed for
indebtedness canceled as a result of a borrower engaging in certain
public service activities, as specified in the Higher Education Act.
Amendments to the Higher Education Act in 1992 and 1998 greatly expanded
the number of borrowers with loans eligible for cancellation. The
resulting increase in demand for these benefits has created a
significant funding shortfall. The Administration's budget proposal for
Perkins Loan cancellations is $60 million, double the 2000 level.
Leveraging Educational Assistance Partnership Program.--Under this
program, formerly known as the State Student Incentive Grant (SSIG)
Program, Federal matching funds are awarded to assist States in
providing programs of grants and work-study assistance to needy students
attending qualifying institutions. When appropriations are $30 million
or less, States must match these Federal funds on at least a dollar-for-
dollar basis and comply with statutory maintenance of effort
requirements. State awards to students may not exceed $5,000 per
academic year.
When appropriations exceed $30 million, those funds in excess of $30
million are reserved for the Special Leveraging Educational Assistance
Partnership Program. Under Special LEAP, States may use the grant funds
for several new authorized activities including increasing the dollar
amount of LEAP grants to students who demonstrate financial need. The
Federal share of the cost of the authorized activities may not exceed
33\1/3\ percent. The Administration proposes $40 million for LEAP in
2001, the same as the 2000 appropriation.
Funding Tables.--The following tables display student aid funds
available, the number of aid awards, average awards, and the
unduplicated count of recipients from any Federal student aid program.
The tables include the aid from programs in the Student Financial
Assistance account, as well as aid from the Federal Family Education
Loan (FFEL) program, and the William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan
program. Loan amounts reflect the capital actually loaned, not the
Federal cost of those loans. The data in these tables include the
effects of matching funds wherever applicable.

The Federal Government operates two major student loan programs: the
Federal Family Education Loan (FFEL) program--formerly the Guaranteed
Student Loan (GSL) program--and the William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan
(Direct Loan) program. The President is committed to improving the
efficiency of both programs and allowing individual institutions to
choose which of these two programs best meets their needs and the needs
of their students.
This summary section outlines the structure of these two programs,
highlights their differences and similarities, and provides text tables
displaying program cost data; loan volume, subsidy, default, and
interest rates; and other descriptive information. As part of his 2001
Budget, the President is proposing a number of changes for the Direct
Loan and FFEL programs. These changes are discussed as part of this
program description.
From its inception in 1965 through 1999, the FFEL program has
provided over $300 billion in loans to postsecondary students and their
parents. Since July 1, 1994, the Direct Loan program has provided almost
$57 billion in new and consolidation loans to students and parents.
Taken together, the FFEL and Direct Loan programs will make almost $32
billion in new loans available in 2000. Because funding for these two
programs is provided on a permanent indefinite basis, for budget
purposes they are considered separately from other Federal student
financial assistance programs. The FFEL and Direct Loan programs should
be viewed in combination with these other programs, however, and with
Perkins Loans in particular, as part of the overall Federal effort to
ensure access to higher education.
Loan capital in the FFEL program is provided by private lenders.
State and private nonprofit guaranty agencies act as agents of the
Federal Government, providing a variety of services including collection
of some defaulted loans, default avoidance activities, and counseling to
schools, students, and lenders. The Government provides substantial
payments to these guaranty agencies. The Government also pays interest
subsidies to lenders for certain borrowers, as well as most costs
associated with loan defaults and other write-offs.
The Higher Education Amendments of 1998 (HEA) fundamentally
restructured the guaranty agency system, reducing the need for agencies
to hold Federal reserve funds. Accordingly, the Administration is
proposing to bring forward $359 million in reserve recalls included in
the HEA. In addition, the Administration is proposing $950 million in
new recalls for 2001. (Amounts recalled in 2001 will be used to offset
discretionary spending.) To provide guaranty agencies the maximum
flexibility under this new structure, the Administration is also
proposing to allow the Secretary of Education to expand the use of
voluntary flexible agreements. These agreements, a limited number of
which were authorized in the HEA, afford agencies greater discretion in
their financial and operational organization.
The Direct Loan program was created by the Student Loan Reform Act
(SLRA) of 1993. Under this program, the Federal Government provides loan
funds to postsecondary institutions
[[Page 371]]
directly or through an alternative originator. Direct Loans offer a
streamlined system that is simpler for student and parent borrowers,
less prone to waste and abuse, and less expensive for the Federal
taxpayer than the FFEL program. The program also offers income-
contingent repayment options that allow borrowers to consider lower-
paying careers, such as public service, without fear of default.
The Direct Loan program began operation in academic year 1994-1995
with 7 percent of overall loan volume. The program grew to 31 percent of
overall volume in academic year 1995-1996, and is expected to account
for 33 percent in academic year 1999-2000. All eligible institutions are
free to participate in either the Direct Loan or FFEL program.
The Direct Loan and FFEL programs share many basic elements. Each
program offers four types of loans: Stafford, Unsubsidized Stafford,
PLUS for parents, and Consolidation. Evidence of financial need is
required for a student to receive a subsidized Stafford loan. The other
three loan programs are available to borrowers at all income levels.
Loans can be used only to meet qualified educational expenses.
The borrower interest rate for new Stafford Loans equals the 91-day
Treasury bill rate plus 1.7 percent during in-school, grace, and
deferment periods, and the 91-day Treasury bill plus 2.3 percent at all
other times, with a cap of 8.25 percent, adjusted annually. Interest
payments for these loans are fully subsidized by the Government while a
student is in school and during grace and deferment periods.
Unsubsidized Stafford loans carry the same borrower interest rate as
Stafford loans, but have no interest subsidy. For new PLUS loans, the
borrower interest rate equals the 91-day Treasury bill rate plus 3.1
percent, with a cap of 9 percent and no interest subsidy.
In the FFEL program, lenders may receive an interest subsidy, called
a special allowance, from the Government to ensure a guaranteed rate of
return on their loans. Special allowance payments vary by loan type, are
determined quarterly, and are based on current borrower interest rates
and market-yield formulas. For new Stafford and Unsubsidized Stafford
loans, for example, the Federal Government must pay lenders a special
allowance if the average 3-month commercial paper rate for a given
quarter plus 2.34 percent--or 1.74 percent during in-school, grace, or
deferment periods--is higher than the current interest rate charged
borrowers.
The basis for interest subsidies to FFEL lenders was changed to 3-
month commercial paper rates from the 91-day Treasury bill--the
instrument upon which student interest rates are based--as part of the
Ticket to Work and Work Incentives Improvement Act 1999. This change was
not intended to increase lender returns. In fact, however, the change
has increased lender yields in two ways. Under current economic
forecasts, Federal interest subsidies to lenders are 11 basis points
higher than would have been the case under the previous formula. In
addition, the move to commercial paper also reduces lender costs by 20
basis points by eliminating the need for hedging--insurance against
future interest rate changes. In order to reestablish the cost-
neutrality of the change to commercial paper, the Administration is
therefore proposing to reduce lender subsidies by a total of 31 basis
points, setting the special allowance formula at the 3-month commercial
paper rate plus 2.03 percent during repayment and plus 1.43 percent
during in-school, grace, or deferment periods.
The Administration is also proposing to eliminate interest subsidy
payments on FFEL loans funded through tax-exempt securities that are
currently subject to a 9.5 percent interest rate floor. Lenders with
access to tax-exempt financing have a lower cost of funding than their
private competitors; the proposed elimination of Federal interest
subsidies on loans subject to this unnecessary floor provision will
bring the return on tax-exempt-funded loans roughly in line with those
realized on loans funded with private capital.
Consolidation loans allow borrowers to combine loans made under
Title IV of the Higher Education Act--FFEL, Direct Loans, and Perkins
Loans--as well as some loans made under the Public Health Service Act.
The interest rate for new FFEL and Direct Consolidation loans equals the
weighted average of the interest rate on the loans consolidated, rounded
up to the nearest one-eighth of one percent. Lenders may choose to offer
a lower rate. Interest rates for all new FFEL and Direct Consolidation
Loans are capped at 8.25 percent.
FFEL borrowers pay an origination fee to the Government equal to 3
percent of principal, and are also liable for a guaranty agency
insurance premium of up to 1 percent of principal. Guaranty agencies
have the option of waiving this premium and FFEL lenders have the option
of paying some or all of a borrower's origination fee for Stafford Loan
borrowers. Direct Loan borrowers are charged an origination fee equal to
3 percent of principal, which partially offsets Federal program
operation costs.
Loan limits are also identical across the two programs. In addition,
loans made under both programs are discharged when borrowers die, are
totally and permanently disabled, or, under some circumstances, declare
bankruptcy. The HEA limited discharges due to bankruptcy to borrowers
who can demonstrate that repayment would constitute an ``undue
hardship.''
Borrowers under Direct Loans may choose from among five repayment
plans including income-contingent repayment (``pay-as-you-can''), under
which annual repayment amounts vary based on the income of the borrower
and the amount borrowed, and payments can be made over 25 years.
Borrowers may switch between repayment plans at any time. (Income-
contingent repayment is not available to Direct PLUS borrowers).
FFEL borrowers may choose from among four repayment plans. Repayment
periods under standard, graduated, and income-sensitive repayment may
not exceed 10 years. The HEA created an extended repayment plan of up to
25 years for new borrowers with outstanding loans totalling more than
$30,000. FFEL borrowers may change repayment plans annually.
The Administration is proposing a number of changes to improve the
management and collection of defaulted loans which build on provisions
enacted in the HEA. The amount guaranty agencies may retain on default
collections will be reduced from 24 percent to 18.5 percent--
approximately the rate paid on loans collected by the Department of
Education through competitively awarded contracts. (The HEA lowered the
guaranty agency retention rate from 27 percent to 24 percent through
2003, and to 23 percent thereafter.) Second, the rate guaranty agencies
may retain on collections stemming from the consolidation of a defaulted
loan will be further reduced to 12 percent to reflect the lower costs
associated with this type of collection.
In order to ensure the uninterrupted availability of aid funds for
students and parents, Congress provided permanent funding to support
student aid administration and expenses. These funds support Department
personnel and contractors for Direct Loan origination and servicing,
payments to guaranty agencies, as well as certain costs associated with
activities common to Direct Loans, FFEL and other student assistance
programs, such as application printing and processing. Discretionary
funds requested for the FFEL program support additional Department
personnel and administrative activities associated with operating the
program.
Performance indicators have been developed on a broad spectrum of
policy objectives in both the Direct Loan and FFEL programs. These
indicators measure program efficiency,
[[Page 372]]
Federal costs, and financial management, as well as borrower and
institutional satisfaction.
The following tables display performance indicators and program
data; including projected overall Direct Loan and FFEL costs; loan
volume, number of loans, and average loan amount; descriptive data, and

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ Subsidy rates represent the Federal portion of non-administrative
costs--principally interest subsidies and defaults--associated with each
borrowed dollar. For example, a $1,000 loan with Federal subsidy costs of
$100 would have a subsidy rate of 10 percent.
\2\ Because these figures do not include totals for consolidation loans,
they do not correspond with totals shown in account-specific schedules.
\3\ Default rates displayed in this table, which reflect projected
defaults over the life of a loan cohort, are used in developing program cost
estimates. The Department uses other rates based on defaults occurring in
the first three years of repayment to determine institutional eligibility to
participate in Federal loan programs. These three-year rates tend to be
lower than those included in this table.
\4\ Rates shown are those set beginning July 1st of the previous fiscal
year.
\5\ Consolidation Loan interest rates are set at the weighted average of
the rates of the loans consolidated, rounded up to the nearest eighth of a
percent.

\1\ No data is included for the Alternative repayment plan under either
FFEL or Direct Loans. Borrowers are not expected to participate in this plan
due to the flexibility available under the other options. For FFEL, no data
is included for income-sensitive repayment. This option, which has been
available for a number of years, has never made up more than a tiny portion
of overall loan volume. For Direct Loans, income-contingent repayment is not
available for PLUS borrowers.
\2\ Percent of Loan Volume represents aggregate data. Individual
borrowers may move between plans over time.

The Higher Education Amendments of 1998 broadened the availability
of alternative repayment plans in the FFEL program. Data on the extent
to which FFEL borrowers will take advantage of these plans is not yet
available.
Subsidy costs for the FFEL and Direct Loan programs are estimated in
accordance with procedures set out in the Credit Reform Act of 1990.
Subsidy costs for each loan type are estimated separately and, because
costs can vary widely within a program depending on the characteristics
of the individual borrower, cost estimates are aggregated from data for
homogeneous groups within risk categories.
Risk categories for Stafford and Unsubsidized Stafford Loans are
based on the type of school attended by the borrower. Since PLUS loan
borrowers are all parents, they are assumed to share similar risk
profiles and are grouped together in a single category. For
Consolidation Loans, risk categories distinguish between standard
Consolidation Loans--in which borrowers in repayment consolidate a
number of outstanding loans--and loans consolidated out of default.
Default rates are a major cause of differences in subsidy between
risk categories. The default rates in the following tables reflect
estimates of the percent of borrowers who will default over the lifetime
of the loans. These estimates are revised annually based on an analysis
of default trends prepared each year by an independent auditor. Within
each risk group, it is assumed that borrowers choosing similar repayment
plans will have similar default rates, regardless of whether they borrow
under the FFEL or Direct Loan program.
The risk group data below also reflect proposed policy changes and
interest rate projections in the President's 2001 Budget. These factors
substantially decrease subsidy rates across years in the FFEL program.

As required by the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990, this program
account records for this program the subsidy costs associated with
Federal Family Education Loans (FFEL), formerly guaranteed student loans
(GSL), committed in 1992 and beyond, as well as certain administrative
expenses of the program. Administrative expenses include discretionary
expenses for salaries, expenses and overhead of employees working
directly on the program. Beginning with the 1993 cohort, mandatory
administrative costs, specifically contract collection costs, are
included in the FFEL subsidy estimates of each year's cohort. Another
mandatory administrative cost, supplemental pre-claims assistance, was
repealed by the Higher Education Amendments of 1998. Subsidy amounts are
estimated on a net present value basis.
A description of the FFEL program and accompanying tables are
included under the Federal Direct Student Loan program account.

Research, development, and dissemination.--The proposal would
establish a national institute of education research to improve
education in the United States by supporting education research,
development, and dissemination activities designed to improve teaching
and learning; improve the ability of schools, school districts, and
States to implement reforms; and use new knowledge from research to
design and implement effective improvement strategies. Funds would
support national research and development centers, field-initiated
studies, directed studies, interagency initiatives, expert study panels,
regional educational laboratories, information clearinghouses, and a
national library of education.
Statistics.--Funds would support the collection of statistics on
educational institutions and on individuals to monitor trends in
education. Funds also would support a coordinated program of statistical
services to assist States in the development of comparable databases and
analyses of the implications of data.
Assessment.--Funds would support the National Assessment of
Educational Progress, which surveys young Americans to provide reliable
information about educational attainments in important skill areas. Both
national- and State-representative data are collected.
America's Tests.--Funds would support the development and field
testing of voluntary national tests in reading for fourth grade students
and in mathematics for eighth grade students. The tests will provide
parents, teachers, and policymakers with information needed to assess
student achievement and improve instruction.
Fund for the improvement of education (FIE).--Funds would support
nationally significant projects to improve the quality of education,
help all students meet challenging standards, and contribute to the
achievement of the National Education Goals.
Javits gifted and talented education.--Funds would support projects
designed to help educators identify and meet the special educational
needs of gifted and talented students and, where appropriate, to adapt
strategies successful with those students to improve instruction for all
students.
National writing project.--Funds would support a national
professional development project to improve the teaching of writing by
teachers of all subject areas to improve the quality of student writing
and learning.
Civic education.--Funds would support a program to educate students
about the history and principles of the Constitution of the United
States, including the Bill of Rights, and to foster civic competence and
responsibility.
International education exchange.--Funds would support international
exchange programs to help improve civics and economics education in
central and eastern European countries, countries that were part of the
former Soviet Union, and the United States. Funds would also be used to
conduct civic education programs with Northern Ireland, the Republic of
Ireland, and democracies in other developing countries.

[Sec. 305. (a) From the funds appropriated for payments to local
educational agencies under section 8003(f ) of the Elementary and
Secondary Education Act of 1965 (``ESEA'') for fiscal year 2000, the
Secretary of Education shall distribute supplemental payments for
certain local educational agencies, as follows:
(1) First, from the amount of $74,000,000, the Secretary shall
make supplemental payments to the following agencies under section
8003(f ) of ESEA:
(A) Local educational agencies that received assistance
under section 8003(f ) for fiscal year 1999--
(i) in fiscal year 1997 had at least 40 percent
federally connected children described in section 8003(a)(1)
in average daily attendance; and in fiscal year 1997 had a
tax rate for general fund purposes which was at least 95
percent of the State average tax rate for general fund
purposes; or
(ii) whose boundary is coterminous with the boundary of
a Federal military installation.
(B) Local educational agencies that received assistance
under section 8003(f ) for fiscal year 1999; and in fiscal
year 1997 had at least 30 percent federally connected
children described in section 8003(a)(1) in average daily
attendance; and in fiscal year 1997 had a tax rate for
general fund purposes which was at least 125 percent of the
State average tax rate for general fund purposes.
(C) Any eligible local educational agency that in fiscal
year 1997, which had at least 25,000 children in average
daily attendance, at least 50 percent federally connected
children described in section 8003(a)(1) in average daily
attendance, and at least 6,000 children described in
subparagraphs (A) and (B) of section 8003(a)(1) in average
daily attendance.
(2) From the remaining $2,000,000 and any amounts available
after making payments under paragraph (1), the Secretary shall then
make supplemental payments to local educational agencies that are
not described in paragraph (1) of this subsection, but that meet the
requirements of paragraphs (2) and (4) of section 8003(f ) of ESEA
for fiscal year 2000.
(3) After making payments to all eligible local educational
agencies described in paragraph (2) of subsection (a), the Secretary
shall use any remaining funds from paragraph (2) for making payments
to the eligible local educational agencies described in paragraph
(1) of subsection (a) if the amount available under paragraph (1) is
insufficient to fully fund all eligible local educational agencies.
(4) After making payments to all eligible local educational
agencies as described in paragraphs 1 through 3, the Secretary shall
use any remaining funds to increase basic support payments under
section 8003(b) for fiscal year 2000 for all eligible applicants.
(b) In calculating the amounts of supplemental payments for agencies
described in subparagraphs (1)(A) and (B) and paragraph (2) of
subsection (a), the Secretary shall use the formula contained in section
8003(b)(1)(C) of ESEA, except that--
(1) eligible local educational agencies may count all children
described in section 8003(a)(1) in computing the amount of those
payments;
(2) maximum payments for any of those agencies that use local
contribution rates identified in section 8003(b)(1)(C) (i) or (ii)
shall be computed by using four-fifths instead of one-half of those
rates;
(3) the learning opportunity threshold percentage of all such
agencies under section 8003(b)(2)(B) shall be deemed to be 100;
(4) for an eligible local educational agency with 35 percent or
more of its children in average daily attendance described in either
subparagraph (D) or (E) of section 8003(a)(1) in fiscal year 1997,
the weighted student unit figure from its regular basic support
payment shall be recomputed by using a factor of 0.55 for such
children;
(5) for an eligible local educational agency with fewer than 100
children in average daily attendance in fiscal year 1997, the
weighted student unit figure from its regular basic support payment
shall be recomputed by multiplying the total number of children
described in section 8003(a)(1) by a factor of 1.75; and
(6) for an eligible local educational agency whose total number
of children in average daily attendance in fiscal year 1997 was at
least 100, but fewer than 750, the weighted student unit figure from
its regular basic support payment shall be recomputed by multiplying
the total number of children described in section 8003(a)(1) by a
factor of 1.25.
(c) For a local educational agency described in subsection (a)(1)(C)
above, the Secretary shall use the formula contained in section
8003(b)(1)(C) of ESEA, except that the weighted student unit total from
its regular basic support payment shall be recomputed by using a factor
of 1.35 for children described in subparagraphs (A) and (B) of section
8003(a)(1) and its learning opportunity threshold percentage shall be
deemed to be 100.
(d) For each eligible local educational agency, the calculated
supplemental section 8003(f ) payment shall be reduced by subtracting
the agency's fiscal year 2000 section 8003(b) basic support payment.
(e) If the sums described in subsections (a)(1) and (2) above are
insufficient to pay in full the calculated supplemental payments for the
local educational agencies identified in those subsections, the
Secretary shall ratably reduce the supplemental section 8003(f ) payment
to each local educational agency.]

[Sec. 310. (a) From the amount appropriated for title VI of the
Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 in accordance with this
section, the Secretary of Education--(1) shall make available a total of
$6,000,000 to the Secretary of the Interior (on behalf of the Bureau of
Indian Affairs) and the outlying areas for activities under this
section; and (2) shall allocate the remainder by providing each State
the same percentage of that remainder as it received of the funds
allocated to States under section 307(a)(2) of the Department of
Education Appropriations Act, 1999.
(b)(1) Each State that receives funds under this section shall
distribute 100 percent of such funds to local educational agencies, of
which--
(A) 80 percent of such amount shall be allocated to such local
educational agencies in proportion to the number of children, aged 5
to 17, who reside in the school district served by such local
educational agency from families with incomes below the poverty line
(as defined by the Office of Management and Budget and revised
annually in accordance with section 673(2) of the Community Services
Block Grant Act (42 U.S.C. 9902(2))) applicable to a family of the
size involved for the most recent fiscal year for which satisfactory
data are available compared to the number of such individuals who
reside in the school districts served by all the local educational
agencies in the State for that fiscal year; and
(B) 20 percent of such amount shall be allocated to such local
educational agencies in accordance with the relative enrollments of
children, aged 5 to 17, in public and private nonprofit elementary
and secondary schools within the boundaries of such agencies.
(2) Notwithstanding paragraph (1), if the award to a local
educational agency under this section is less than the starting salary
for a new fully qualified teacher in that agency who is certified within
the State (which may include certification through State or local
alternative routes), has a baccalaureate degree, and demonstrates the
general knowledge, teaching skills, and subject matter knowledge
required to teach in his or her content areas, that agency may use funds
under this section to (A) help pay the salary of a full- or part-time
teacher hired to reduce class size, which may be in combination with
other Federal, State, or local funds; or (B) pay for activities
described in subsection (c)(2)(A)(iii) which may be related to teaching
in smaller classes.
(c)(1) The basic purpose and intent of this section is to reduce
class size with fully qualified teachers. Each local educational agency
that receives funds under this section shall use such funds to carry out
effective approaches to reducing class size with fully qualified
teachers who are certified within the State, including teachers
certified through State or local alternative routes, and who demonstrate
competency in the areas in which they teach, to improve educational
achievement for both regular and special needs children, with particular
consideration given to reducing class size in the early elementary
grades for which some research has shown class size reduction is most
effective.
(2)(A) Each such local educational agency may use funds under this
section for
(i) recruiting (including through the use of signing bonuses,
and other financial incentives), hiring, and training fully
qualified regular and special education teachers (which may include
hiring special education teachers to team-teach with regular
teachers in classrooms that contain both children with disabilities
and non-disabled children) and teachers of special-needs children,
who are certified within the State, including teachers certified
through State or local alternative routes, have a baccalaureate
degree and demonstrate the general knowledge, teaching skills, and
subject matter knowledge required to teach in their content areas;
[[Page 391]]
(ii) testing new teachers for academic content knowledge, and to
meet State certification requirements that are consistent with title
II of the Higher Education Act of 1965; and
(iii) providing professional development (which may include such
activities as promoting retention and mentoring) to teachers,
including special education teachers and teachers of special-needs
children, in order to meet the goal of ensuring that all
instructional staff have the subject matter knowledge, teaching
knowledge, and teaching skills necessary to teach effectively in the
content area or areas in which they provide instruction, consistent
with title II of the Higher Education Act of 1965.
(B)(i) Except as provided under clause (ii) a local educational
agency may use not more than a total of 25 percent of the award received
under this section for activities described in clauses (ii) and (iii) of
subparagraph (A).
(ii) A local educational agency in an Ed-Flex Partnership State
under Public Law 106-25, the Education Flexibility Partnership Act, and
in which 10 percent or more of teachers in elementary schools as defined
by section 14101(14) of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of
1965 have not met applicable State and local certification requirements
(including certification through State or local alternative routes), or
if such requirements have been waived, may apply to the State
educational agency for a waiver that would permit it to use more than 25
percent of the funds it receives under this section for activities
described in subparagraph (A)(iii) for the purpose of helping teachers
who have not met the certification requirements become certified.
(iii) If the State educational agency approves the local educational
agency's application for a waiver under clause (ii), the local
educational agency may use the funds subject to the waiver for
activities described in subparagraph (A)(iii) that are needed to ensure
that at least 90 percent of the teachers in elementary schools are
certified within the State.
(C) A local educational agency that has already reduced class size
in the early grades to 18 or less children (or has already reduced class
size to a State or local class size reduction goal that was in effect on
the day before the enactment of the Department of Education
Appropriations Act, 2000, if that State or local educational agency goal
is 20 or fewer children) may use funds received under this section--
(i) to make further class size reductions in grades kindergarten
through 3;
(ii) to reduce class size in other grades; or
(iii) to carry out activities to improve teacher quality,
including professional development.
(D) If a local educational agency has already reduced class size in
the early grades to 18 or fewer children and intends to use funds
provided under this section to carry out professional development
activities, including activities to improve teacher quality, then the
State shall make the award under subsection (b) to the local educational
agency.
(3) Each such agency shall use funds under this section only to
supplement, and not to supplant, State and local funds that, in the
absence of such funds, would otherwise be spent for activities under
this section.
(4) No funds made available under this section may be used to
increase the salaries or provide benefits, other than participation in
professional development and enrichment programs, to teachers who are
not hired under this section. Funds under this section may be used to
pay the salary of teachers hired under section 307 of the Department of
Education Appropriations Act, 1999.
(d)(1) Each State receiving funds under this section shall report on
activities in the State under this section, consistent with section
6202(a)(2) of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965.
(2) Each State and local educational agency receiving funds under
this section shall publicly report to parents on its progress in
reducing class size, increasing the percentage of classes in core
academic areas taught by fully qualified teachers who are certified
within the State and demonstrate competency in the content areas in
which they teach, and on the impact that hiring additional highly
qualified teachers and reducing class size, has had, if any, on
increasing student academic achievement.
(3) Each school receiving funds under this section shall provide to
parents upon request, the professional qualifications of their child's
teacher.
(e) If a local educational agency uses funds made available under
this section for professional development activities, the agency shall
ensure for the equitable participation of private nonprofit elementary
and secondary schools in such activities. Section 6402 of the Elementary
and Secondary Education Act of 1965 shall not apply to other activities
under this section.
(f ) Administrative Expenses.--A local educational agency that
receives funds under this section may use not more than 3 percent of
such funds for local administrative costs.
(g) Request for Funds.--Each local educational agency that desires
to receive funds under this section shall include in the application
required under section 6303 of the Elementary and Secondary Education
Act of 1965 a description of the agency's program to reduce class size
by hiring additional highly qualified teachers.
(h) No funds under this section may be used to pay the salary of any
teacher hired with funds under section 307 of the Department of
Education Appropriations Act, 1999, unless, by the start of the 2000-
2001 school year, the teacher is certified within the State (which may
include certification through State or local alternative routes) and
demonstrates competency in the subject areas in which he or she teaches.
