These funds were allocated to the following programs: (1) Academic Decathlon (a scholastic competition); (2) Alternative Calendar (intersession programs for educationally disadvantaged students); (3) library resources; (4) secondary library technology; (5) middle school "Transition In" program to facilitate changing schools; (6) Positive Parenting Practices; (7) prekindergarten supplements; (8) private school materials and resources; (9) Reading Recovery programs for grade 1; (10) the Spanish Academy courses in Spanish for teachers and staff; and (11) supplementary materials for eligible students.
