How Title II, Part A funds reach CCISD and the rules that govern them
Summary
The presenter explained Title II, Part A funds originate at the U.S. Department of Education, pass through the state to CCISD, and are governed by federal and state rules including the supplement-not-supplant requirement under ESSA.
A CLEAR CREEK ISD presenter told families that Title II, Part A is a federal program whose funds “se originan en el Departamento de Educación de los Estados Unidos y luego pasan por el estado directamente a nuestro distrito escolar.” The presenter also named the Texas Education Agency as the state oversight authority for public schools in Texas.
The presenter emphasized a statutory compliance requirement commonly described as 'supplement, not supplant,' explaining that Title II dollars must be added to existing district spending rather than replacing local funding. “El dinero de título 2 debe añadirse a lo que el distrito ya proporciona, no puede reemplazarlo,” the presenter said, noting this rule protects federal resources as additional support for students rather than a substitute for district obligations.
