Title of Collection: SEA Procedures for Adjusting ED-Determined Title I Allocations to Local Education Agencies (LEAs). OMB Control Number: 1810–0622. Type of Review: An extension without change of a currently approved ICR. Respondents/Affected Public: State, local, and Tribal governments. Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 52. Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 2,080. Abstract: We are requesting a threeyear extension of the current paperwork clearance package (OMB number 1810– 0622) related to State educational agency (SEA) procedures for adjusting Title I, Part A local educational agency (LEA) allocations determined by the U.S. Department of Education (ED). Title I, part A of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965, as amended (ESEA), requires ED to allocate Basic Grants, Concentration Grants, Targeted Grants, and Education Finance Incentive Grants directly to LEAs. (See sections 1124(a)(2), 1124A(a), 1125(a), (b), and (c)(2), and 1125A(c) and (d)(1)(B), (2)(B), and (3)(B) of the statute at https://uscode.house.gov/browse/ prelim@title20/chapter70/subchapter1/ partA&edition=prelim.) Title I, part A allocations are based primarily on poverty data provided by the Census Bureau and reflect a national list of LEAs that is generally two years old. For example, the list of LEAs used for calculating school year (SY) 2023–2024 allocations is based on LEAs that existed in SY 2021–2022. Because the list of LEAs used by ED in determining LEA allocations does not match the current universe of LEAs in many States, SEAs must adjust EDs allocations to account for district boundary changes and newly-created LEAs that are eligible for title I, part A funds but did not receive an allocation under ED calculations.
