**PROGRAM MEMORANDUM**

**TO:** State Directors of Career and Technical Education

**FROM:** Troy R. Justesen, Ed.D.

**SUBJECT:** Estimated FY 2007 State Allocations under the Carl D.
Perkins Career and Technical Education Act of 2006

I am pleased to provide you with the estimated State allocations for FY
2007 grants under titles I (Career and Technical Education Assistance to
the States) and II (Tech Prep Education) of the Carl D. Perkins Career
and Technical Education Act of 2006 (Perkins IV or Act). These funds
will become available beginning on July 1, 2007, and these estimates
will be posted to our Web site shortly
([www.ed.gov/about/offices/list/ovae/](http://www.ed.gov/about/offices/list/ovae/)).
Please share these figures with your secondary or postsecondary
counterparts, your State Tech-Prep coordinator, fiscal partners, and
other appropriate individuals within your State. Please note the
following information regarding State allocations for FY 2007.

-   Funds under title I will become available at two separate times. A
    portion of the funds will become available for obligation on July 1,
    2007, and remain available for 15 months through September 30, 2008.
    The remaining portion will become available on October 1, 2007, and
    remain available for 12 months. Table 1 shows how each portion will
    be divided among the States and the outlying areas.

-   Table 2 shows the total appropriation for Tech-Prep State grants,
    all of which will be available July 1, 2007, and how these funds
    will be divided among the States.

-   Perkins IV now requires that the States distribute secondary funds
    under section 131(a)(2) of the Act, based on the Bureau of the
    Census' estimate of the number of individuals aged 5 though 17,
    inclusive, who reside in the school district served by such local
    education agency and are from families below the poverty level for
    the preceding fiscal year, as determined on the basis of the most
    recent satisfactory data used under section 1124(c)(1)(A) of the
    Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965, compared to the
    total number of individuals who reside in the school districts
    served by all the local educational agencies in the State for such
    preceding fiscal year.

-   Perkins IV also requires that the States distribute secondary funds
    under section 131(a)(1) of the Act, based on the number of
    individuals aged 5 through 17, inclusive, who reside in the school
    district served by such local education agency for the preceding
    year compared to the total number of such individuals who reside in
    the school districts served by all local educational agencies in the
    State for such preceding fiscal year, as determined on the basis of
    the most recent satisfactory

    -   Data provided to the Secretary by the Bureau of the Census for
        the purpose of determining eligibility under title I of the
        Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965; or

    -   Student membership data collected by the National Center for
        Education Statistics through the Common Core of Data survey
        system.

-   States must use the updated Bureau of the Census data, reflecting
    2005-2006 school district boundaries, in FY 2007 funding
    distribution formulas. These data may be accessed at
    [www.census.gov/hhes/www/saipe/district.html](http://www.census.gov/hhes/www/saipe/district.html).

.

-   Any State choosing to use student membership data must use the
    updated National Center for Education Statistics data, which may be
    accessed at
    [www.nces.ed.gov/ccd/pubagency.asp](http://www.nces.ed.gov/ccd/pubagency.asp).

Please feel free to contact your State Liaison if you have questions
