2. The dissemination of applications, evaluations and program plans to the parents of Indian students and the Indian tribes involved.
3. The opportunity for parents of Indian students and the Indian tribes involved to present their views regarding the Impact Aid application, including the opportunity to make recommendations concerning the needs of their children and ways by which they can assist their children in realizing the benefits to be derived from the educational programs assisted by Impact Aid funds.
4. The active consultation and involvement of the parents of Indian children and the tribes affected in the planning and development of programs assisted by Impact Aid funds.
5. The general opportunity for parents of Indian children and representatives of the affected tribes to present their overall views on the educational program, the operation of such programs and the degree of parental participation allowed.
