[Busmgrs] 2019 TAP Grant Information

[ELLIOTT Michael S - ODE]

Dear All,

I hope everyone has had a good week and is ready for winter break. I know this is a busy time of year, so I will keep this short. We wanted to give everyone a head's up that the Technical Assistance Program Grants (TAP Grants) will be open starting January 15. We will be accepting applications from 8:00 am January 15 to 5:00 pm February 15. Districts will be ranked based on the total number of preference points they receive per application. Winners will be announced March 15. Other helpful information:


*         TAP will offer grants for four types of assessments this year:

o   Seismic Assessement ($25,000)

o   Long-Range Facility Plan ($25,000)

o   Facility  Assessment ($20,000)

o   Environmental Hazard Assessment (radon testing) ($25,000)

*         There will be $2.5 million available to award in grants this year

*         Districts must submit a separate application for each type of grant. Applications are attached to this email.

*         Additional information can be found in our FAQs, also attached to this email.

*         We have simplified the applications this year. We will be providing the ADMr and poverty data from the State School Fund and so will not ask districts for that information.

Please review this information. If you have additional questions, please don't hesitate to contact me. Leanna will be out of the office until January 17 so I will be happy to step in and answer your questions.

Thank you and I hope you have a good break.

Michael
