§ 7231e. Priority

In awarding grants under this part, the Secretary shall give priority to applicants that—

  • (1) demonstrate the greatest need for assistance, based on the expense or difficulty of effectively carrying out approved desegregation plans and the magnet school program for which the grant is sought;
  • (2) propose to—
    • (A) carry out a new, evidence-based magnet school program;
    • (B) significantly revise an existing magnet school program, using evidence-based methods and practices, as available; or
    • (C) replicate an existing magnet school program that has a demonstrated record of success in increasing student academic achievement and reducing isolation of minority groups;
  • (3) propose to select students to attend magnet school programs by methods such as lottery, rather than through academic examination; and
  • (4) propose to increase racial integration by taking into account socioeconomic diversity in designing and implementing magnet school programs.
