so long as the students selected for services under the targeted 
assistance program are those with the greatest need for special 
assistance, consistent with the requirements of section 1115 of the 
ESEA.
    (c)(1) To determine whether schools served under subpart A of this 
part are making AYP, an LEA also may use any additional academic 
assessments or any other academic indicators described in the LEA's

    (2)(i) The LEA may use these assessments and indicators--
    (A) To identify additional schools for school improvement or in need 
of corrective action or restructuring; and

group not meeting the State's proficient level of academic achievement 
by at least 10 percent.
    (ii) The LEA may not, with the exception described in paragraph 
(c)(2)(i)(B) of this section, use these assessments and indicators to 
reduce the number of, or change the identity of, the schools that would 
otherwise be identified for school improvement, corrective action, or 
restructuring if the LEA did not use these additional indicators.
    (d) The LEA must publicize and disseminate the results of its annual 
progress review to parents, teachers, principals, schools, and the 
community.
    (e) The LEA must review the effectiveness of actions and activities 
that schools are carrying out under subpart A of this part with respect 
to parental involvement, professional development, and other activities 
assisted under subpart A of this part.
