Formula takes into account (1) population; (2) business, commercial, industrial, and economic development and productive efficiency; and (3) (The limit for the least populous State is $37,500 a year, and for the most populous State, $500,000, with the other States arrayed between these The Director of the Office of Economic Opportunity may distribute 20 percent of the available funds on an essentially discretionary basis. The remainder is divided among the States, including the District of Columbia, so that equal proportions are distributed according to the relative number of public assistance participants, the relative number of unemployed, and the relative number of related children under 18 living in families with incomes of less than $1,000. A further requirement is that the assistance be equitably divided among urban and rural areas. Subject to general formula allotment for community action programs: Subject to general formula allotment for community action programs: Maximum available to a local educational agency in a State is equal to the Federal percentage of the average per pupil expenditure in that State or the United States (if greater) multiplied by the number of children in the school district aged 5 to 17 who are: (1) in families having an annual income less than the low-income factor, (2) in families receiving an annual income in excess of the low-income factor from payments under the program of aid to families with de- (3) Living in institutions for neglected or delinquent children and not counted for aid to a State agency. For fiscal year 1970 the "Federal percentage" is fixed at 50 percent and the "low-income factor" is $3,000. Each State (including the District of Columbia) is allotted an amount which bears the same ratio to the total available as the number of children Formula 2 Supplementary educational centers Of the amount appropriated: and services. (1) Each State (including the District of Columbia) is allotted $200,000; (2) Of the remainder of any appropriated funds: 3 (b) Each State is allotted an amount which bears the same ratio to 50 percent of such remainder as the population of the State bears to the population of all the States. (a) Each State is allotted an amount which bears the same ratio to 50 percent of such remainder as the number of children aged 5 to 17 in the State bears to the number of such children in all the States, and Of the funds available for apportionment: (1) 40 percent Is apportioned among the States (including the District of Columbia) in equal amounts, and 3 (2) 60 percent Is apportioned on the basis of the State share of public school pupils relative to the total number of public school pupils in the United States. 7 Bilingual education. Commissioner sets criteria based on a consideration of: (A) The geographic distribution of children of limited English-speaking ability, (B) The relative need of persons in different geographic areas within the State for the specified services and activities, and (C) The relative ability of particular local educational agencies within the State to provide those services and activities. Handicapped, neglected, or delinquent State agencies responsible for providing education for these children are eligible to receive a grant equal to 50 percent of the average per pupil children. Guidance, counseling, and testing. Education of handicapped children and youth: Preschool and school programs. Strengthening instruction in selected subjects: Humanities and arts. Science, mathematics, modern foreign Federally affected schools: Construction aid.

(No State allotment may be less than $100,000 or 310 of 1 percent of the total available for allotment, whichever is greater.) From the amount available for apportionment, each State (including the District of Columbia) is allotted an amount which bears the same ratio to that amount as the product of: (1) The school-age population of the State, and (2) The State's allotment ratio in relation to the total for all the States. The allotment ratio is: 100 percent less the product of (A) 50 percent and (B) the quotient obtained by dividing the income per child of schoolage for the State by the income per child of school-age for the United States, except that the allotment ratio shall not be less than 3315 percent or 6624 percent. See humanities and arts, this program title. Amount of aid is based on the local contribution rate expenditures financed from own-source revenues divided by the number of children in daily attendance to whom the local school district provided free public education--multiplied by: (1) The number of children in average daily attendance who resided on Federal property (a) with a parent employed on Federa! property, or (b) had a parent in the uniform services on active duty; and, (2)% of the number of children in average daily attendance who either (a) resided on Federal property, or (b) resided with a parent employed on Federal property, or (c) had a parent who was on active duty in the uniform services. Total payments are based on the estimated increase in the number of children (since the base year) who: (1) Were residing on Federal property (a) with a parent employed on Federal property, or (b) had a parent on active duty in the uniform services, multiplied by 95 percent; (2) Were (a) residing on Federal property, or (b) residing with a parent employed on Federal property, or (c) had a parent on active duty with the uniform services, multiplied by 50 percent; (3) Were located there due to activities of the United States (carried on directly or through a contractor), multiplied by 45 percent. The percentages are applied to the average per pupil cost of constructing minimum school facilities in the State in which the school district is located.
