If your LEA received an invoice and believe it was received in error, please contact the LPLO at 916-319-0845.

  5. Title III Apportionments The fifth apportionment for FY 2008–09 has been submitted to the School Fiscal Services for processing. Warrants will be mailed to county treasurers in approximately six to eight weeks. The first and second apportionments for FY 2009–10 are in the approval process and should follow shortly after the FY 2008–09 fifth apportionment.

  6. Expenditure Reporting (Consolidated Application, Part I) The Consolidated Application (ConApp) Part I is due on June 30, 2010. LEAs will report their expenditures for FY 2008–09 and FY 2009–10. Only LEAs that verify that they have expended or encumbered at least 80 percent of previous apportionments will receive the next apportionment.

  7. 2010-11 Eligibility and Application Process (Limited English Proficient) Applications for 2010–11 must be submitted by June 30, 2010. Applications submitted after this date are not guaranteed funding.

Private Schools (LEP) In previous years the LEAs had to submit to the CDE a paper document with the number of private school English learner (EL) students served with Title III products and services. Beginning with 2010–11, the paper process is now obsolete, and the number of ELs served will be submitted through ConApp I, Page 4.

  14. Private Schools In previous years private schools had to submit to the CDE a paper document entitled “Request to Participate” which either requested or declined Title III services. Beginning in FY 2010–11, the paper process is now obsolete and the submission will take place online. Letters to private schools and LEAs are anticipated to be mailed mid-May and are due June 30, 2010.

  32. Community-Based English Tutoring Program Pamela LucasAssociate Governmental Program Analyst

  33. Community-Based English Tutoring Program • Pursuant to Senate Bill x3 4 (SB x3 4), Community-Based English Tutoring (CBET) Program funding for 2008-09 through 2012-13 may be used for any educational purpose. • All program requirements are suspended during this flexibility period. • Funding for 2009-10 through 2012-13 will be based on 2008-09 allocations, rather than on EL counts.

  34. Community-Based English Tutoring Program In addition to flexibility for 2008-09 through 2012-13 funding, SBx3 4 provides that CBET balances as of June 30, 2008 may be used for other purposes. The time period to do so ends June 30, 2010. The CDE sent a payment request to the State Controller’s Office on November 16, 2009 for 100 percent of the allocation for 2009-10. Funding results for 2009-10 are posted on the CDE Categorical Programs Web page at http://www.cde.ca.gov/fg/aa/ca/cbet.asp

  35. Community-Based English Tutoring Program The May Revised Budget released on 5/14/10 includes $40,095,000 for CBET for fiscal year 2010-11. Each LEA that received CBET funding for 2008-09 will automatically receive funding for 2010-11, without having to apply for it. For budgeting purposes, each LEA can estimate its allocation for 2010-11 by multiplying its 2008-09 allocation by 0.9476483. This will be its allocation for 2010-11, provided $40,095,000 is appropriated for CBET in the final 2010 State Budget.

The time period to do so ends June 30, 2010.

  38.

Each COE that received BTTP funding for 2008-09 will automatically receive funding for 2010-11, without having to apply for it. For budgeting purposes, each COE can estimate its allocation for 2010-11 by multiplying its 2008-09 allocation by 0.940851.
