by grantees to assess progress on these
measures.
5. Continuation Awards: In making a
continuation award, the Secretary may
consider, under 34 CFR 75.253, the
extent to which a grantee has made
‘‘substantial progress toward meeting the
objectives in its approved application.’’
This consideration includes the review
of a grantee’s progress in meeting the
targets and projected outcomes in its
approved application, and whether the
grantee has expended funds in a manner
that is consistent with its approved
application and budget. In making a
continuation grant, the Secretary also
considers whether the grantee is
operating in compliance with the
assurances in its approved application,
including those applicable to Federal
civil rights laws that prohibit
discrimination in programs or activities
receiving Federal financial assistance
from the Department (34 CFR 100.4,
104.5, 106.4, 108.8, and 110.23).

agencies; librarians; businesses; State
educational agencies; parents; and other

Not later than six months after each

submit a report based on this needs
assessment to the Secretary. Each report

the region and how those needs would
be most effectively addressed. The

comprehensive centers to address,
taking into account these regional
assessments and other relevant regional
surveys of educational needs, to the
