Such arrangements to provide free public education may also be made for children of members of the Armed Forces on active duty, if the schools in which free public education is usually provided for such children are made unavailable to them as a result of official action by State or local governmental authority and it is the judgment of the Secretary, after he has consulted with the appropriate State educational agency, that no local educational agency is able to provide suitable free public education for such children. To the maximum extent practicable, the local educational agency, or the head of the Federal department or agency, with which any arrangement is made under this section, shall take such action as may be necessary to ensure that the education provided pursuant to such arrangement is comparable to free public education provided for children in comparable communities in the State, or, in the case of education provided under this section outside the continental United States, Alaska, and Hawaii, comparable to free public education provided for children in the District of Columbia. For the purpose of providing such comparable education, personnel may be employed and the compensation, tenure, leave, hours of work, and other incidents of the employment relationship may be fixed without regard to the Civil Service Act and rules and the following: (1) chapter 51 and subchapter III of chapter 53 of title 5; (2) subchapter I of chapter 63 of title 5; (3) sections 5504, 5541 to 5549, and 6101 of title 5; (4) sections 1302(b), (c), 2108, 3305(b), 3306(a)(2), 3308 to 3318, 3319(b), 3320, 3351, 3363, 3364, 3501 to 3504, 7511, 7512, and 7701 of title 5; and (5) chapter 43 of title 5. Personnel provided for under this subsection outside of the continental United States, Alaska, and Hawaii, shall receive such compensation, tenure, leave, hours of work, and other incidents of employment on the same basis as provided for similar positions in the public schools of the District of Columbia. In any case where education was being provided on January 1, 1955, or thereafter under an arrangement made under this subsection for children residing on an Army, Navy (including the Marine Corps), or Air Force installation, it shall be presumed, for the purposes of this subsection, that no local educational agency is able to provide suitable free public education for the children residing on such installation, until the Secretary and the Secretary of the military department concerned jointly determine, after consultation with the appropriate State educational agency, that a local educational agency is able to do so. (b) Education of children in adjacent areas

In any case in which the Secretary makes such arrangements for the provision of free public education in facilities situated on Federal property, he may also make arrangements for providing free public education in such facilities for children residing in any area adjacent to such property with a parent who, during some portion of the fiscal year in which such education is provided, was employed on such property, but only if the Secretary determines after consultation with the appropriate State educational agency (1) that the provision

of such education is appropriate to carry out the purposes of this subchapter, (2) that no local educational agency is able to provide suitable free public education for such children, and (3) in any case where in the judgment of the Secretary the need for the provision of such education will not be temporary in duration, that the local educational agency of the school district in which such children reside, or the State educational agency, or both, will make reasonable tuition payments to the Secretary for the education of such children. Such payments may be made either directly or through deductions from amounts to which the local educational agency is entitled under this subchapter, or both, as may be agreed upon between such agency and the Secretary. Any amounts paid to the Secretary by a State or local educational agency pursuant to this section shall be covered into the Treasury as miscellaneous receipts.

(c) Education of children whose parents are employed in certain Territories and Possessions

In any case in which the Secretary makes arrangements under this section for the provision of free public education in facilities situated on Federal property in Puerto Rico, Wake Island, Guam, American Samoa, the Northern Mariana Islands, or the Virgin Islands, he may also make arrangements for providing free public education in such facilities for children residing with a parent employed by the United States in a grade, position, or classification subject by policy and practice to transfer or reassignment to areas where English is the language of instruction in the schools normally attended by children of Federal employees. Dependents of excepted service professional employees of the schools shall be eligible to attend the schools. In any case where education is being provided under an arrangement made under this subsection, it shall be presumed that no local educational agency is able to provide suitable free public education for the children of eligible parents employed by the United States until the Secretary determines, after consultation with the appropriate State educational agency, that a local educational agency is able to do so. (d) Restrictions on making arrangements

The Secretary may make an arrangement under this section only with a local educational agency or with the head of a Federal department or agency administering Federal property on which children reside who are to be provided education pursuant to such arrangement or, in the case of children to whom the second sentence of subsection (a) of this section applies, with the head of any Federal department or agency having jurisdiction over the parents of some or all of such children. Except where the Secretary makes arrangements pursuant to the second sentence of subsection (a) of this section, arrangements may be made under this section only for the provision of education in facilities of a local educational agency or in facilities situated on Federal property. The Secretary shall ensure that funds provided under such arrangement or arrangements are expended in an efficient manner, and shall require an

accounting of funds by such agency at least on an annual basis. The Secretary shall further be provided with data relating to the quality and type of education provided to such children under such arrangement or arrangements.

(e) Limit on payments

To the maximum extent practicable, the Secretary shall limit the total payments made pursuant to any such arrangement for educating children within the continental United States, Alaska, or Hawaii, to an amount per pupil which will not exceed the per pupil cost of free public education provided for children in comparable communities in the State. The Secretary shall limit the total payments made pursuant to any such arrangement for educating children outside the continental United States, Alaska, or Hawaii, to an amount per pupil which will not exceed the amount he determines to be necessary to provide education comparable to the free public education provided for children in the District of Columbia. (f) Children living on Federal property

If no tax revenues of a State or of any political subdivision of the State may be expended for the free public education of children who reside on any Federal property within the State, or if no tax revenues of a State are allocated for the free public education of such children, then the property on which such children reside shall not be considered Federal property for the purposes of sections 238 and 239 of this title. If a local educational agency refuses for any other reason to provide in any fiscal year free public education for children who reside on Federal property which is within the school district of that agency or which, in the determination of the Secretary, would be within that school district if it were not Federal property, there shall be deducted from any amount to which the local educational agency is otherwise entitled for that year under section 238 or 239 of this title an amount equal to (1) the amount (if any) by which the cost to the Secretary of providing free public education for that year for each such child exceeds the local contribution rate of that agency for that year, multiplied by (2) the number of such children. (g) Elective school boards

The Secretary shall ensure the establishment of an elective school board in schools assisted under this section. Such school board shall be composed of a minimum of three members, elected by the parents of students in attendance at such school. The Secretary shall, by regulation, establish procedures for carrying out such school board elections as provided in this subsection.

(h) School board oversight of school expenditures and operations

A school board established pursuant to subsection (g) of this section shall be empowered to oversee school expenditures and operations, subject to audit procedures established by the Secretary, and other provisions of this section.

This section is referred to in sections 243, 244 of this title.

§ 241-1. Assistance for current school expenditures in cases of certain disasters

(a) Eligibility requirements; terms; duration; maximum amount

In any case in which

(1)(A) the President determines with respect to any local educational agency (including for the purpose of this section any other public agency which operates schools providing technical, vocational, or other special education to children of elementary or secondary school age) that such agency is located in whole or in part within an area which after August 30, 1965, and prior to October 1, 1983, has suffered a major disaster as the result of any flood, drought, fire, hurricane, earthquake, storm, or other catastrophe which, in the determination of the President pursuant to sections 5122(2) and 5141 of title 42, is or threatens to be of sufficient severity or magnitude to warrant disaster assistance by the Federal Government; or

(B) the Secretary determines with respect to any such agency that public elementary or secondary school facilities of such agency have been destroyed or seriously damaged prior to October 1, 1983 as a result of flood, hurricane, earthquake, storm, fire, or other catastrophe, except any such catastrophe caused by negligence or malicious action; and (2) the Governor of the State in which such agency is located has certified the need for disaster assistance under this section, and has given assurance of expenditure of a reasonable amount of the funds of the government of such State, or of any political subdivision thereof, for the same or similar purposes with respect to such catastrophe;

and if the Secretary determines with respect to such agency that

(3) such agency is utilizing or will utilize all State and other financial assistance available to it for the purpose of meeting the cost of providing free public education for the children attending the schools of such agency, but as a result of such disaster it is unable to obtain sufficient funds for such purpose and requires an amount of additional assistance equal to at least $1,000 or one-half of 1 per centum of such agency's current operating

expenditures during the fiscal year preceding the one in which such disaster occurred, which ever is less, and

(4) in the case of any such major disaster to the extent that the operation of private elementary and secondary schools in the school attendance area of such local educational agency has been disrupted or impaired by such disaster, such local educational agency has made provisions for the conduct of educational programs under public auspices and administration in which children enrolled in such private elementary and secondary schools may attend and participate: Provided, That nothing contained in this chapter shall be construed to authorize the making of any payment under this chapter for religious worship or instruction,

the Secretary may provide to such agency the additional assistance necessary to provide free public education to the children attending the schools of such agency, upon such terms and in such amounts (subject to the provisions of this section) as the Secretary may consider to be in the public interest. Such additional assistance may be provided for a period not greater than a five-fiscal-year period beginning with the fiscal year in which it is determined pursuant to clause (1) of this subsection that such agency suffered a disaster. The amount so provided for any fiscal year shall not exceed the amount which the Secretary determines to be necessary to enable such agency, with the State, local, and other Federal funds available to it for such purpose, to provide a level of education equivalent to that maintained in the schools of such agency prior to the occurrence of such disaster, taking into account the additional costs reasonably necessary to carry out the provisions of clause (4) of this subsection. The amount, if any, so provided for the second, third, and fourth fiscal years following the fiscal year in which it is so determined that such agency has suffered a disaster shall not exceed 75 per centum, 50 per centum, and 25 per centum, respectively, of the amount so provided for the first fiscal year following such determination. (b) Additional funds for replacing supplies and equipment, making minor repairs, and leasing temporary facilities

In addition to and apart from the funds provided under subsection (a) of this section, the Secretary is authorized to provide to such agency an amount which he determines to be necessary to replace instructional and maintenance supplies, equipment, and materials (including textbooks) destroyed or seriously damaged as a result of such disaster, to make minor repairs, and to lease or otherwise provide (other than by acquisition of land or erection of facilities) school and cafeteria facilities needed to replace temporarily such facilities which have been made unavailable as a result of the disaster.

(c) Authorization of appropriations; expenditure of sums pending appropriation

There is hereby authorized to be appropriated for each fiscal year such amounts as may

be necessary to carry out the provisions of this section. Pending such appropriation, the Secretary is authorized to expend (without regard for sections 1341(a) and 1515(b) of title 31) from any funds appropriated to the Department of Education and at that time available to the Secretary, such sums as may be necessary for providing immediate assistance under this section. Expenditures pursuant to the preceding sentence shall

(1) be reported by the Secretary to the Committees on Appropriations and Education and Labor of the House of Representatives and the Committees on Appropriations and Labor and Human Resources of the Senate within thirty days of the expenditure;

(2) be reimbursed from the appropriations authorized by the first sentence of this subsection.

The report required to the Committees on Appropriations by clause (1) in the preceding sentence shall constitute a budget estimate within the meaning of section 1105(a)(5) of title 31. (d) Applications; priority of approvals; prompt consideration for applications

No payment may be made to any local educational agency under this section except upon application therefor which is submitted through the appropriate State educational agency and is filed with the Secretary in accordance with regulations prescribed by him. In determining the order in which such applications shall be approved, the Secretary shall consider the relative educational and financial needs of the local educational agencies which have submitted approvable applications. In any case in which the Secretary does not complete, within sixty days, all action leading to approval or disapproval of an application filed under this section, the Secretary shall assume responsibility for such approval or disapproval of such application and shall complete such action within ninety days of the filing of such application. (e) Payments to local agencies; repayment of unexpended funds

Amounts paid by the Secretary to local educational agencies under this section may be paid in advance or by way of reimbursement and in such installments as the Secretary may determine. Any funds paid to a local educational agency and not expended or otherwise used for the purposes for which paid shall be repaid to the Treasury of the United States.
