Title I, Part A District Level Set Asides Waiver (Formerly District Managed Activities)
Local Education Agencies (LEAs) that propose to exceed the 20% limitation for the use of District Managed Activities (DMA) are required to complete this waiver request prior to submitting the Consolidated Application, no later than June 30. A request to exceed the 20% limitation must be submitted annually. Approval is granted only for the funding year in which a waiver request is received. LEAs that do not propose to exceed the 20% limitation are not required to complete the waiver process.
The Federal Programs and Supports Unit within the Colorado Department of Education (CDE) will review the LEA’s request to exceed the DMA limitation during the review of the LEA’s Consolidated Application. The LEA will be notified of whether approval has been granted through the regular review process. CDE may request additional information prior to granting approval of the waiver request.
Please note, the SmartSheet form must be completed in one sitting (the online form will not save your work if you exit the form without submitting). A printable version of the waiver is included here for your reference.
