Title I |
15% of allocation for a LEA with an allocation of at least $50,000; 100% of allocation for a LEA with an allocation of less than $50,000. |
LEAs can receive 100% of their carryover once every three years by applying for a waiver. See below for more information. |
| Title II, Part A | 100% of allocation. | |
| Title III, Part A | 100% of allocation (provided that the LEA had an approved plan in that year). |
The amount carried over must be expended by the end of the following year. For example, if a portion of a 2011-12 allocation is carried over into 2012-13, an amount equal to the carryover must be expended by the end of the 2012-13 fiscal year.
All LEAs (in New York City and outside New York City) may apply for a waiver to the Title I carryover limit by making a request in writing to the Department's Title I School & Community Services office at 365 EBA, 89 Washington Avenue, Albany, New York 12234. Please include the LEA BEDs Code, Title I project code and reason for the waiver request in your letter. ESEA requires that the LEA must be able to demonstrate that the request is reasonable and necessary.
