| Program Description | ||
| Title IV, Part A - Safe and Drug-Free Schools and Communities provides state and LEAs with supplemental funding to develop and enhance education programs targeting violence prevention and drug prevention strategies in elementary and secondary schools for all students and employees. The Principles of Effectiveness require school districts to conduct a needs assessment, use research-based activities, establish performance measures, and include meaningful and ongoing consultation with parents. The division administers the LEA formula program. | ||
| Title IV, Part A, Subpart 3 - Gun-Free Schools Act requires states receiving NCLB funding to have a state law in effect requiring LEAs to expel any student who is determined to have brought a firearm to school or possessed a firearm at school, for a period of no less than one year. LEAs must annually report on any expulsion in order to receive federal education funding. | ||
