Supplement, not Supplant Requirement
Questions to Ask When Considering Whether Title IIIFunds Can be Used Without Violating
the Supplement, not Supplant Requirement
1. What is the instructional program/service provided to all students?
2. What does the LEA do to meet Lau requirements? 3. What services is the LEA required by other Federal, State, and
local laws or regulations to provide? 4. Was the program/service previously provided with State, local,
and Federal funds?
Based on the answers to the above questions, would the proposedfunds be used to provide an instructional program/service that is inaddition to or supplemental to an instructional program/service thatwould otherwise be provided to LEP students (or be required to beprovided by other laws/regulations) in the absence of a Title III
grant?

Supplement, not Supplant Requirement - General
The First Test of Supplanting: Required by Law
The U. S. Department of Education assumes supplanting exists if –
An LEA uses Title IIIfunds to provide services that the
LEA isrequired to make available
under State or locallaws, or other Federal laws.
![Page 12: 2013 EL Coordinators Meeting Title III Budget. Topics O Title III Subgrant Allocation Timeline O Supplement, not Supplant O Title III 2% Administrative](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649c8e5503460f949476ef/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Supplement, not Supplant Requirement - General
The Second Test of Supplanting: Prior Year
The U. S. Department of Education assumes supplanting exists if –
An LEA uses Title III funds to provideservices that the LEA provided in the prior
year with State, local or other Federal funds.
This assumption can be rebutted.
![Page 13: 2013 EL Coordinators Meeting Title III Budget. Topics O Title III Subgrant Allocation Timeline O Supplement, not Supplant O Title III 2% Administrative](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649c8e5503460f949476ef/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
To refute the “prior year” test of supplanting, the LEA would need to have contemporaneous records to confirm…
Budget cuts were made in a number of areas, not just services for LEP students; and,
There was in fact a reduced amount of State or local funds to pay for this activity/position; and
The LEA made the decision to eliminate the position/activity without taking into consideration Federal funds.

Districts have a limit of 2% of the Title III grant award for administration. (section 3115(b))
Administration = administrative costs + indirect costs
Examples of administrative costs:support staff, coordinators, & other personnel
that perform administrative functions
Administrative costs are associated with the overall project management and administration and which are not directly related to the provision of services to participants or otherwise allocable to the program cost objectives/categories.
