Summary

TABLE OF CONTENTS: Title I: Funds to the Classroom Title II: Education Flexibility Partnership Act of 1999 Title III: Modification of Arbitrage Rebate Rules Applicable to Bonds Used to Finance Public Schools Dollars to the Classroom Act - Title I: Funds to the Classroom - Expresses the sense of the Congress that it urges the Department of Education, States, and local educational agencies (LEAs) to work together to ensure that not less than 95 percent of all funds appropriated for the purpose of carrying out elementary and secondary education programs administered by the Department of Education is spent for our children in their classrooms. Title II: Education Flexibility Partnership Act of 1999 - Education Flexibility Partnership Act of 1999 - Authorizes the Secretary of Education to allow qualified States to participate in an Education Flexibility Partnership (Ed-Flex Partnership) program. (Sec. 204) Requires Ed-Flex Partnership States to: (1) have approved challenging content standards, challenging performance measures, and aligned assessments in place or have made substantial progress towards having an approved plan under ESEA title I; (2) hold local educational agencies (LEAs) accountable for meeting the educational goals submitted in their local applications for waivers, and for taking corrective actions if they have not met such goals; and (3) waive State educational requirements while holding LEAs or schools affected by such waivers accountable for student performance. Sets forth requirements for: (1) State educational agency (SEA) applications and approval by the Secretary; and (2) local applications and approval and monitoring by SEAs. Limits Federal waivers to five years, unless the Secretary extends such period upon determining that such waiver authority has been effective in enabling such SEAs or affected LEAs or schools to carry out local reform plans. Authorizes the Secretary to carry out the Ed-Flex Partnership program for FY 2000 through 2004. Includes as statutory or regulatory requirements that may be waived under this Act those of programs under the Carl D. Perkins Education Act of 1998, and of the following programs under the the Educational and Secondary Education Act of 1965 (ESEA): (1) title I Helping Disadvantaged Children Meet High Standards; (2) part B State and Local Activities under the title II Dwight D. Eisenhower Professional Development Program; (3) subpart 2 State and Local Programs for School Technology Resources (with specified exceptions), under part A Technology Education for All Students, of title III Technology for Education; (4) title IV Safe and Drug-Free Schools and Communities; (5) title VI Innovative Education Program Strategies; and (6) the part C Emergency Immigrant Education Program under title VII Bilingual Education, Language Enhancement, and Language Acquisition Programs. Prohibits waivers for specified types of requirements. Provides that this Act shall not affect the authority of any State educational agency (SEA) under the Ed-Flex Demonstration program of the Goals 2000: Educate America Act. Sets forth accountability requirements. Requires the Secretary, in deciding whether to extend the authority of an SEA to issue waivers, to review the progress of the SEA, LEA, or school affected by the waiver or authority toward the desired results described in its application. Title III: Modification of Arbitrage Rebate Rules Applicable to Bonds Used to Finance Public Schools - Amends the Internal Revenue Code to increase the arbitrage rebate exception for governmental bonds used to finance public schools. (Sec. 302) Modifies arbitrage rebate rules applicable to public school construction bonds.
