NOTICES

Consolidated Application under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act

[32 Pa.B. 2240]

   The Department of Education (Department) proposes to submit a Consolidated Application to the United States Department of Education under the provisions of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) (20 U.S.C.A. § 9302). ESEA was amended on January 8, 2002, by Pub. L. No. 107-110 and is known as the No Child Left Behind Act (act).

   The act embodies the four key principles of the President's education reform plan: 1)  accountability for results; 2) expanded state and local flexibility and reduced ''red tape''; 3) expanded choices for parents; and 4) focusing resources on proven educational methods, particularly in reading instruction. These principles are designed to produce fundamental reforms in classrooms throughout America.

   As part of the application process, the Department solicits input on its proposed application through May 29, 2002. The proposed application is available on the Department's website at www.pde.state.pa.us (accessible at public libraries) or can be obtained by contacting Fran James Warkomski, Ed.D., Director, Bureau of Special Education, 333 Market Street, Harrisburg, PA, 17126-0333, (717) 783-6913 or TDD (717) 787-7367. Alternative formats including Braille, large print or cassette tape are available upon request.
