A bill to provide financial assistance for school construction to local educational agencies educating large numbers of immigrant children born in Mexico.

Authorizes additional appropriations of up to $45,000,000 for such purposes.

Requires a local educational agency, to be eligible for such assistance, to have: (1) at least 20 immigrant children; and (2) a minimum enrollment of seven percent immigrant children. Requires that an immigrant child, guardian, or parent must live within a school district of such agency to be counted for eligibility purposes.

Provides that a local educational agency shall receive $1,000 for each immigrant child for whom such agency provided free public education during the 1978-1979 school year.

Requires a local educational agency to submit an application for such assistance. Sets forth guidelines for such application.

Defines the term "immigrant child" for purposes of this Act as a child born in Mexico who has legally immigrated to the United States or a child whose parents are legal immigrants from Mexico, and who is provided free public education.
