Explanation
(This amendment directs $1.0 million in new federal funds be used for teacher training in the second year. A total of $76.2 million in new federal funds have been appropriated in federal fiscal year 2001 (FY 02). Of that amount $2.1 million in new Eisenhower Professional Development State grants have been appropriated. With this amendment at least $1.0 million of these new grant funds can be used with the existing $16.1 million in general funds for the Teacher Training for Standards of Learning program. Companion amendments are included in Item 133 and Item 143.)
