DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE

Office of the Secretary


DoD Dependent Schools; Eligibility Requirements

AGENCY: DoD, DoDDS.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

    On September 8, 2000, the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Force 
Management Policy (ASD(FMP)), signed a memorandum to the Interim 
Director, Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA), changing 
DoD Directive 1342.12 ``Eligibility Requirements for Education of Minor 
Departments in Overseas Areas,'' dated July 8, 1982.
    The change designates for enrollment on a space-available, tuition-
free basis the class of dependents of NATO forces assigned to the NATO 
site at Larissa, Greece, excluding the host nation. This class waiver 
will be effective for school years 2000-2001 and 2001-2002, to the 
extent space is available, in order to allow sufficient time for the 
NATO command to explore other education options. This waiver will 
permit the enrollment of approximately 30 dependents of NATO forces. No 
Department of Defense (DoD) funds may be used to hire additional 
English as a Second Language instructors. Either the NATO forces or the 
NATO families must ensure the students are prepared for English 
language instruction.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    DoD Directive 1342.13, ``Eligibility Requirements for Education of 
Minor Dependents in Overseas Areas,'' dated July 2, 1982, is published 
at 32 CFR Pt. 71, and copies are available at cost from the National
