Approval of this form is needed in order to continue the on-going collection of data used to allocate funds authorized under title I, part A and title I, part D, subparts 1 and 2 of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 (ESEA). Title I, part A provides formula grants to local educational agencies (LEAs), through State educational agencies (SEAs), to improve the teaching and learning of at-risk students in high-poverty schools. In order to calculate title, I, part A allocations, ED must annually collect data on the number of children living in locally operated institutions for neglected or delinquent (N or D) children.
