State Chapter 1 Participation and Achievement Information--1991-92. Summary Report.
Westat, Inc., Rockville, MD.
This report summarizes the 1991-92 State Performance Reports for the Chapter 1 Local Education Agency (LEA) program and the Chapter 1 State Agency Neglected or Delinquent Program. As the largest single investment in elementary and secondary education by the Federal government, Chapter 1 provides funding to about 90 percent of school districts nationwide, with over 5.9 million students in 1991-92. In 1991-92, 40 percent of these students were White (non-Hispanic), 27 percent were Black, and 28 percent were Hispanic American. A review of the achievement of students participating in the LEA program shows that, nationally, 22 percent of Chapter 1 schools were identified for program improvement in 1991-92 because the Chapter 1 students in those schools showed no change or a decline in achievement scores over the course of the year. The total allocation of Chapter 1 funds to state agency neglected or delinquent programs in 1991-92 was $36.1 million. A series of 51 tables presents information about expenditures and recipients of program services. Thirteen graphs illustrate trend, and five appendixes provide additional technical information and the evaluation requirements. (SLD)
