Under Section 1003 of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA), as amended, Local Education Agencies (LEAs) with schools identified for school improvement, corrective action and restructuring under Section 1116 of Title I, Part A may be awarded supplemental funds to support efforts and initiatives aimed at raising student academic achievement. 

Section 1003(a) funds come from the four percent state-level set-aside that the State Education Agency (SEA) reserves from its total Title I, Part A allocation from the US Department of Education.
