How are the RTTT LEA subgrant allocations calculated?
Each State receiving an RTTT grant is required by section 14006(c) of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) to award 50% of its total grant funds to participating LEAs based on their relative shares of funding under Part A of Title I of the ESEA for the most recent year (“the 14006(c) subgrant”). Since all RTTT grants will be made in 2010, USED has determined that Fiscal Year (FY) 2009 is the most recent year and will be the basis for calculating RTTT allocations.
