§1022a — Title 20 Education | U.S. Code

Summary

The Secretary can give competitive grants from money made available under section 1022h to eligible partnerships. These grants pay for work to prepare and support teachers, early childhood educators, and school leaders. Partners must apply and show a needs assessment, describe how the program will teach strong classroom skills and use research and data, explain how it will work with other federal and state programs, list the resources and commitments they will provide, and show an evaluation plan. Applications must say how the program will follow State early learning and academic standards, train general and special education teachers to serve students with disabilities and students who are limited English proficient, include faculty working in partner classrooms, build a year-long clinical training experience, and include an induction program that supports new teachers for at least the first two years. Partnerships must also plan to collect and use data on teacher retention. Grant money must be used for a teacher preparation program (including a 5th-year initial licensing option), a teaching residency, or both, and may also fund a school leadership program. Teaching residencies must combine graduate coursework, a guided apprenticeship with trained mentor teachers, cohort placement, a one-year living stipend or salary, and a requirement that residents teach full time for at least three academic years in a high-need school after completing the residency; residents who do not meet this obligation must normally repay the stipend, though pro-rata repayment or deferral is allowed for health, military service, inability to find employment in a partner school, or other extraordinary circumstances. The Secretary must evaluate funded programs and publish reports. Partnership members must consult regularly, approve changes in writing, may work across States or with public broadcasters or digital content providers, and must use these funds to supplement—not replace—other federal, State, or local funds.
