|
 |
Below are information about the 2004-05 NCLB
Title II, Part A; Title II, Part D; Title
IV, Part A; and Title V, Part A
allocations and the 2004-05 allocations for New
York State school districts and charter schools. The allocations are determined by the
State Education Department based on requirements set forth in the NCLB
legislation.
|
Title II, Part A
|
| Amount Available for Allocation in 2004-05: |
$219,396,192 |
The 2004-05 amount is approximately one percent less
than we received in 2003-04.
How the Title II, Part A Local Allocations are
Calculated by SED:
A portion of the State’s allocation must be reserved
for a hold harmless requirement in the legislation, and the remainder is
distributed based on enrollment and poverty factors.
- The hold harmless requirement provides an LEA
with a base Title II, Part A allocation that is equal to what it
received in allocations in 2001-02 for the former federal Eisenhower
Professional Development and Class Size Reduction programs. (Title
II, Part A combined the
Eisenhower Professional Development and Class Size Reduction programs
into one program.)
- The amount remaining after meeting the hold
harmless requirement is broken up into three parts –20 percent for
student enrollment, 40 percent for poverty and 40 percent for
concentrated poverty.
- An LEA’s portion of the enrollment part is
based on the LEA’s share of the State’s total student enrollment
(public and nonpublic). For example, a school district that has five
percent of the State’s total student enrollment in its public and
nonpublic schools will receive five percent of the enrollment part of
the Title II, Part A State allocation.
- An LEA’s portion of the poverty part is based
on its share of the State total of children ages 5-17 who are living
in poverty. (Poverty data is from the updated 2000 census and is
provided to us by the U.S. Department of Education.)
- An LEA qualifies for receiving funds from the
concentrated poverty component by having a percentage of children in
poverty that exceeds the Statewide average of 18.46%. Each of the
qualifying LEAs receives a portion of the component based on its share
of children in poverty within the qualifying group of LEAs.
- Each LEA’s portions of the three parts are
summed up.
An LEA’s Title II, Part A allocation is the sum of
its hold harmless amount and its portion of the remainder.
|
Title II, Part D
|
| Amount Available for Allocation in 2004-05: |
$31,217,989 |
The 2004-05 amount is approximately one percent more
than we received in 2003-04.
How the Title II, Part D Local Allocations are
Calculated by SED:
An LEA’s allocation is based on the LEA’s share of
the State’s 2004-05 Title I, Part A allocation. For example, a school
district that received five percent of the State’s Title I, Part
A allocation will receive five percent of the State’s Title II, Part D
allocation.
|
Title IV, Part A
|
| Amount Available for Allocation in 2004-05: |
$24,983,458 |
The 2004-05 amount, which is subject to change by
the U.S. Department of Education, is approximately 11 percent less than we
received in 2003-04.
How local allocations are calculated by SED:
The State’s allocation is separated into two
components: 2003-04 Title I, Part A and total enrollment. The first
component gets 60 percent of the State’s allocation and the attendance
component gets 40 percent of the State’s allocation.
- An LEA’s portion of the Title I, Part A component
is based on the LEA’s share of the State’s 2003-04 Title I, Part A
allocation.
- An LEA’s portion of the attendance component is
based on the LEA’s share of the State’s total student enrollment (public
and nonpublic).
An LEA’s Title IV, Part A allocation is the sum of
its portions of the two components.
|
Title V, Part A
|
| Amount Available for Allocation in 2004-05: |
$14,941,028 |
The 2004-05 amount is approximately 24 percent less
than we received in 2003-04.
How local allocations are calculated by SED:
The State’s allocation is separated into four
components: poverty, concentrated poverty, enrollment and geographical
sparsity. The first two components each get 35 percent of the State
allocation, and the latter two components each get 15 percent of the State
allocation.
- An LEA’s portion of the poverty component is
based on the LEA’s share of the State total of children ages 5-17 who
are living in poverty. (Poverty data is from the updated 2000 census and
is provided to us by the U.S. Department of Education.)
- An LEA qualifies for receiving funds from the
concentrated poverty component by having a percentage of children in
poverty that exceeds the Statewide average of 18.46%. Each of the
qualifying LEAs receives a portion of the component based on its share
of children in poverty within the qualifying group of LEAs.
- An LEA’s portion of the enrollment component is
based on the LEA’s share of the State’s total student enrollment (public
and nonpublic).
- An LEA qualifies for receiving funds from the
sparsity component by having less than 23 students per square mile (the
federal definition of sparsity). Each of the qualifying LEAs receives a
portion of the component based on its share of students within the
qualifying districts.
An LEA’s Title V, Part A allocation is the sum of
its portions of the four components.
