States Get More Flexibility, Too
- Current law requires state activity funds (Federal funds held at the state
level) to be used for specific purposes.
- States are allowed to make spending decisions with up to 50 percent of their
state activity funds under No Child Left Behind.
- New state flexibility applies to teacher quality, technology, after-school
learning, Safe and Drug Free Schools, and the Innovative Programs grant.
