Delaware will exercise the reserve option under Section 112 (c) under the following conditions:
1. Up to 10 % of the allocation under Section 131of the Act will be held in reserve for competitive grants to LEAs (Appendix G).
2. To be eligible to apply for funds through the reserve for competitive grants, LEAs must meet one of the following criteria:
- Rural areas;
- Areas with high numbers of career and technical students; and
- Areas with high percentage of career and technical students.
3. The actual amount of the reserve fund to be used will vary from year to year. If all of the 10% is not used it will be returned to the competitive grant reserve for future allocation.
