Priorities
Absolute Priority: The priority in the notice of final priority for
this program, as published in the Federal Register on October 30, 1995
(60 FR 55245), applies to this competition.
Under 34 CFR 75.105(c)(3) and section 7114(a) of the Act, the
Secretary gives an absolute preference to applications that meet the
following priority. The Secretary funds under this competition only
applications that meet this absolute priority:
Projects that serve only schools in which the number of LEP
students, in each school served, equals at least 25 percent of the
total student enrollment.
Invitational Priority: Within the absolute priority specified in
this notice, the Secretary is particularly interested in applications
that meet the following invitational priority. However, under 34 CFR
75.105(c)(1) an application that meets this invitational priority does
not receive competitive or absolute preference over other applications.
Applicants that consider the Department of Education Professional
Development Principles in planning and designing a Comprehensive School
Grant project.
Those principles call for educator professional development that
focuses on teachers as central to student learning, yet includes all
other members of the school community; focuses on individual,
collegial, and organizational improvement; respects and nurtures the
intellectual and leadership capacity of teachers, principals, and
others in the school community; reflects best available research and
practice in teaching, learning, and leadership; enables teachers to
develop further expertise in subject content, teaching strategies, uses
of technologies, and other essential elements in teaching to high
standards; promotes continuous inquiry and improvement embedded in the
daily life of schools; is planned collaboratively by those who will
participate in and facilitate that development; requires substantial
time and other resources; is driven by a coherent long-term plan; is
evaluated ultimately on the basis of its impact on teacher
effectiveness and student learning; and uses this assessment to guide
subsequent professional development efforts.

Notice to all Applicants
Thank you for your interest in this program. The purpose of this
enclosure is to inform you about a new provision in the Department of
Education's General Education Provisions Act (GEPA) that applies to
applicants for new grant awards under Department programs. This
provision is section 427 of GEPA, enacted as part of the Improving
America's Schools Act of 1994 (Pub. L. 103-382).
To Whom Does This Provision Apply?
Section 427 of GEPA affects applicants for new discretionary grant
awards under this program. ALL APPLICANTS FOR NEW AWARDS MUST INCLUDE
INFORMATION IN THEIR APPLICATIONS TO ADDRESS THIS NEW PROVISION IN
ORDER TO RECEIVE FUNDING UNDER THIS PROGRAM. What Does This Provision
Require?
Section 427 requires each applicant for funds (other than an
individual person) to include in its application a description of the
steps the applicant proposes to take to ensure equitable access to, and
participation in, its federally assisted program for students,
teachers, and other program beneficiaries with special needs.
This section allows applicants discretion in developing the
required description. The statute highlights six types of barriers that
can impede equitable access or participation that you may address:
gender, race, national origin, color, disability, or age. Based on
local circumstances, you can determine whether these or other barriers
may prevent your students, teachers, etc. from equitable access or
participation. Your description need not be lengthy; you may provide a
clear and succinct description of how you plan to address those
barriers that are applicable to your circumstances. In addition, the
information may be provided in a single narrative, or, if appropriate,
may be discussed in connection with related topics in the application.
Section 427 is not intended to duplicate the requirements of civil
rights statutes, but rather to ensure that, in designing their
projects, applicants for Federal funds address equity concerns that may
affect the ability of certain potential beneficiaries to fully
participate in the project and to achieve to high standards. Consistent
with program requirements and its approved application, an applicant
may use the Federal funds awarded to it to eliminate barriers it
identifies.
What are Examples of How an Applicant Might Satisfy the Requirement of
This Provision?
The following examples may help illustrate how an applicant may
comply with section 427.
(1) An applicant that proposes to carry out an adult literacy
project serving, among others, adults with limited English proficiency,
might describe in its application how it intends to distribute a
brochure about the proposed project to such potential participants in
their native language.
(2) An applicant that proposes to develop instructional materials
for classroom use might describe how it will make the materials
available on audio tape or in braille for students who are blind.
(3) An applicant that proposes to carry out a model science program
for secondary students and is concerned that girls may be less likely
than boys
[[Page 2864]]
to enroll in the course, might indicate how it tends to conduct
``outreach'' efforts to girls, to encourage their enrollment.
We recognize that many applicants may already be implementing
effective steps to ensure equity of access and participation in their
grant programs, and we appreciate your cooperation in responding to the
requirements of this provision.
Estimated Burden Statement
According to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, no persons are
required to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a
valid OMB control number. The valid OMB control number for this
information collection is 1801-0004 (Exp. 8/31/98). The time required
to complete this information collection is estimated to vary from 1 to
3 hours per response, with an average of 1.5 hours, including the time
to review instructions, search existing data resources, gather and
maintain the data needed, and complete and review the information
collection. If you have any comments concerning the accuracy of the
time estimate(s) or suggestions for improving this form, please write
to: U.S. Department of Education, Washington, DC 20202-4651.
