Title III, Part A, English Language Acquisition, Language Enhancement, and Academic Achievement for English Learner Students, of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 (ESEA), as amended by the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) (Public Law 114–95) funds are apportioned to local educational agencies (LEAs) to provide supplementary academic support and educational services to English learner students.
Allocations and Apportionments The California Department of Education (CDE) adjusts LEA allocation amounts throughout the first 12 months of the grant award period. Preliminary allocations include adjustments for LEAs that failed to meet the federal maintenance of effort (MOE) requirement applicable to 2025–26 funding and did not receive an approved federal waiver, pursuant to Section 8521 of the ESSA.
Preliminary allocations lack information about new and significantly expanding charter LEAs. Revised allocations incorporate estimated data from new and significantly expanding charter schools and reflect any revisions from the United States Department of Education (ED) to the grant award.
Final allocations are based on actual current year California Longitudinal Pupil Achievement Data System (CALPADS) information for new and significantly expanding charter schools and eliminate funds previously set aside for LEAs without a Consolidated Application (ConApp) reported via the Consolidated Application and Reporting System (CARS) and/or lacking an approved Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP) Federal Addendum.
Funds are redistributed to all eligible LEAs. Title III, Part A, English Learner allocation amounts are equal to the number of English learner students reported on the Fall 2023 CALPADS, or the Fall 2024 CALPADS for new and significantly expanding charter schools, multiplied by a rate of $136. 09.
LEAs eligible to receive a formula subgrant of less than $10,000, that elect to participate in the Title III, Part A, English Learner program, must apply as a consortium via the Consortium Online Application. One LEA in each consortium must agree to serve as the lead of the consortium, be the sole subgrantee, and administer the subgrant on behalf of all consortium members.
The CDE apportions Title III, Part A English Learner funds on a quarterly basis following each federal Cash Management Data Collection (CMDC) period until the period of availability expires. Funds are apportioned quarterly to reduce the time elapsing between receipt and disbursement of funds by LEAs in order to comply with federal cash management requirements.
In order to receive an apportionment each quarter, an LEA must: Complete the ESSA LEA Plan. The LCAP Federal Addendum and The consolidated application will serve to meet the ESSA LEA Plan requirement. Apply for Title III, Part A, English Learner funds on the 2025–26 CARS .
LEAs must certify the FY 2025–26 Application for Funding page by March 31, 2026 . California State Board of Education approval of the ConApp is required to receive an apportionment of funds. Have submitted an approved LCAP Federal Addendum.
File CMDC during an open period and meet federal cash management thresholds. Each LEA’s quarterly payment equals 25 percent of the Title III, Part A English Learner allocation minus the cash balance reported in CMDC each respective quarter, minus any funds paid in the same quarter from the balance of any preceding fiscal year funds that have not yet expired.
Example: If a cash balance of -$250 is submitted for an LEA with a yearly entitlement of $500, the calculated apportionment will be 25% of 500 + 250 or $125 + 250 = $375. An LEA is subject to a maximum payment equal to 25 percent of the award allocation in the first apportionment of each fiscal year. More details on the CMDC, including quarterly windows and reporting deadlines, are posted on the Federal Cash Management web page.
