[Erate] Last Mile Grants

[Carson, Sabrina]

Here is a forwarded message regarding Last Mile Grants. :)


"Greetings,



I would like to make you aware that the Oregon Department of Education will be again funding and promoting LastMile grants for the 2011-13 biennium. This is the third round of grants that ODE has sponsored through Grant in Aid monies made available by the Legislature. For this round there is $471,000 available for grants. Grants will be awarded on a competitive basis and given to schools and districts that do not yet meet minimum standards of greater than 10 Mbps of bandwidth on their path to the Internet. This can include connections between buildings or directly to the Internet as long as the path creates, at a minimum, 10 Mbps of connectivity. The funds may be used for non-reoccurring cost associated with building or creating connections to greater bandwidth.



Complete details and the grant application can be found at http://www.oregoneesc.org/content/lastmile-grants-2011-13. If you have any questions there will be two question and answer sessions around the grants. Details for those sessions are also located on the website. You may also contact Don Wolff, don.wolff at wesd.org<mailto:don.wolff at wesd.org>.





Regards,



-Don
