submitted 56 years ago by Pub. L. 90-247 to r/title-20-EDUCATION · 160 words · no verdicts yet
When parental participation would make an applicable program more effective, the Secretary must issue regulations encouraging it. Programs that pay local educational agencies must require applications to involve parents in planning and operation, give them a chance to comment, and share plans and evaluations.
If the Secretary* decides that parent participation at the State or local level would make an applicable program* more effective in achieving its purposes, the Secretary must issue regulations for that program with criteria designed to encourage participation. If the program pays local educational agencies, an application must (1) describe policies and procedures ensuring that assisted programs and projects are planned, developed, and operated with consultation and involvement of the parents of the children served; (2) assure that those parents had a chance to give their views about the application; and (3) describe procedures for adequately sharing program plans and evaluations with those parents and the public.
In the case of any applicable program* in which the Secretary* determines that parental participation at the State or local level would increase the effectiveness of the program in achieving its purposes, the Secretary shall promulgate regulations with respect to such program setting forth criteria designed to encourage such participation. If the program for which such determination is made provides for payments to local educational agencies, applications for such payments shall—
set forth such policies and procedures as will ensure that programs and projects assisted under the application have been planned and developed, and will be operated, in consultation with, and with the involvement of, parents of the children to be served by such programs and projects;
be submitted with assurance that such parents have had an opportunity to present their views with respect to the application; and
set forth policies and procedures for adequate dissemination of program plans and evaluations to such parents and the public.
