Kansas Statutes Chapter 72. Schools § 72-5538. Federal fund applications by state board of education; direct application by school districts

In the event the designation of a “state education agency” is required by federal laws now or hereafter enacted which make available federal funds for educational purposes, the state board of education is designated as the “state education agency” through which applications, reports, agreements and federal funds are to be channeled; and said “state education agency” is hereby authorized and empowered to do all things necessary to comply with and carry out any such federal law or the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder by the federal government or any agency thereof. Nothing contained in this section shall be construed as preventing any board of education or any educational agency of this state from making direct applications for or receiving directly federal funds made available for educational purposes in those cases where the federal law permits direct applications for and receipt of federal funds by any such board of education or its school district or educational agency of this state.
