This grant program, established under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA), provides vital funding to support local educational agencies (LEAs) and nonprofit organizations. Nonprofits must partner with one or more LEAs or a consortium of schools to be eligible. The core purpose of this grant is to foster and scale innovative educational practices. This grant is for advancing educational excellence through proven, innovative strategies. Applicants submit proposals electronically. A recent correction clarifies that grantees must ensure evaluation data is made available to third-party researchers, adhering to applicable privacy requirements.
