Abstract	Research on District Decentralized Title I ESEA programs reveals conflict among school officials, community representatives, and community agencies. School officials mistrust and poorly communicate with community representatives. Community agencies compete for the economic resources brought by decentralization, while overlooking the main objective of decentralization, that of the involvement of the community in educational planning. The administrative organization of many projects is faulty. School officials are not directly accountable for the progress of the projects; better monitoring is essential. If decentralized planning and conduct of educational projects is to be effective, there must be greater participation in planning and monitoring the projects by the community. There is also a great need for improved performance on the part of school officials in the area of administration and supervision, and a greater willingness to accept and respond to criticism. (JM)
