School Improvement Grants - American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) - Title I of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 (US Department of Education Regulation) (ED) (2018 Edition) The Law Library presents the complete text of the School Improvement Grants - American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) - Title I of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 (US Department of Education Regulation) (ED) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 The U. S. Secretary of Education (Secretary) issues final requirements for School Improvement Grants authorized under section 1003(g) of Title I of the ESEA, and funded through both the Department of Education Appropriations Act, 2009 and the ARRA. The final requirements govern the process that a State educational agency (SEA) uses to award school improvement funds to local educational agencies (LEAs) with the persistently lowest-achieving Title I schools that demonstrate the greatest need for the funds and the strongest commitment to use those funds to raise substantially the achievement of the students attending those schools. Under the final requirements, an LEA may also use school improvement funds to serve persistently lowest-achieving secondary schools that are eligible for, but do not receive, Title I funds and Title I schools in improvement, corrective action, and restructuring that are not among the persistently lowest-achieving schools. The final requirements require an SEA to award school improvement funds to eligible LEAs in amounts sufficient to enable the persistently lowest-achieving schools to implement one of four specific school intervention models.
