Description of Program

    The statutory authorization for this program, and the application 
requirements that apply to this competition, are set out in sections 
7112 and 7116 of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965, as

programs, improve the instructional program, compensate personnel, and 
provide tutorials and academic or career counseling to limited English 
proficient students.
