On April 10, 2020, the U.S. Department of Education approved ÌÇÐÄvlog¹ÙÍø’s waiver request for an extension to the period of availability for the following 2018-2019 federal grant funds listed below, which would have ended September 30, 2020.Ìý

  • Title I, Part A—Improving Basic ProgramsÌý
  • Title I, Part C—Migrant Education ProgramÌý

  • Title IV, Part A—Student Support and Academic Enrichment GrantsÌý

These funds will now be available until September 30, 2021. Because the 2018-2019 grant programs are now closed, remaining funds are included as carryover in the 2019-2020 grant awards.

You will receive email notification once your grant end dates have been extended.Ìý
