Sec. 611.22  What additional selection criteria are used for a pre-application that proposes teacher recruitment activities?

    In reviewing pre-applications that propose to undertake teacher 
recruitment activities, the Secretary also considers the following 
selection criteria:
    (a) In addition to the elements contained in Sec. 611.21(a) (Project 
goals and objectives), the Secretary considers the extent to which--
    (1) The partnership's vision responds to LEA needs for a diverse and 
high quality teaching force, and will lead to reduced teacher shortages 
in these high-need LEAs; and
    (2) The partnership will sustain its work after federal funding has 
ended by recruiting, providing scholarship assistance, training and 
supporting additional cohorts of new teachers.
    (b) In addition to the elements contained in Sec. 611.21(c) (Quality 
and comprehensiveness of key project components), the Secretary 
considers the extent to which the project will--
    (1) Significantly improve recruitment of new students, including 
those from disadvantaged and other underrepresented backgrounds; and
    (2) Provide scholarship assistance and adequate training to 
preservice students, as well as induction support for those who become 
teachers after graduating from the teacher preparation program.
    (c) In addition to the elements contained in Sec. 611.21(d) 
(Specific project outcomes), the Secretary considers the extent to which 
the project addresses the number of new teachers to be produced and 
their ability to teach effectively in high-need schools.
