Are LEP students in private schools eligible to receive Title III LEP programs, services, and products?
Yes, as long as the LEP students are identified in an appropriate manner and the private school has developed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) (DOC; 32KB; 3pp.) with the LEA of geographic jurisdiction, LEP students in a private school may participate in programs and receive services and products funded by Title III (Title IX, Part E, Section 9501). Private schools may not receive funds directly but must make arrangements through the MOU to receive programs, services, and products from the LEA. For more information about Title III funding for private schools, go to the Title III Immigrant, Private School Web page.
