Report fiscal year (FY) expenditures to determine 2019–20 Title I, Part A unspent funds and compliance with the extended availability period based on the Federal Funding Flexibility Waiver.
This new data collection is for local educational agencies (LEAs) to report expenditures related to the Fiscal Year (FY) 2019–20 Title I, Part A funds.
Program Information
On September 10, 2021, the United States Department of Education (ED) granted the State of California approval of their COVID-19 Federal Funding Flexibility Waiver Request which extended the period of availability of funds in Section 421(b) of the General Education Provisions Act for FY 2019–20.
The COVID-19 Federal Funding Flexibility Waiver extended the period of availability of Fiscal Year 2019–20 Title I, Part A funds until September 30, 2022.
Note: LEAs completed the 2019–20 Title I, Part A LEA Closeout Report during the Winter Release last year to report expenditures through September 30, 2021. However, due to the extended period of availability for FY 2019–20 funds, LEAs will complete the 2019–20 Title I, Part A LEA Closeout Report, 39 months, to report expenditures through September 30, 2022.
LEAs that reported a carryover amount for FY 2019–20 in the 2019–20 Title I, Part A LEA Carryover during the Winter Release two years ago, must report expenditures related to that carryover amount to confirm the amount of FY 2019–20 Title I, Part A funds spent by September 30, 2022. This form must be completed, even if the LEA reported all funds were spent by September 30, 2021 during the Winter Release last year.
