Opportunity Summary:
The Office of Elementary and Secondary Education (OESE) Alaska Native Education (ANE) Program, CFDA 84.356A, is a discretionary grant opportunity from the U.S. Department of Education designed to fund innovative education projects that directly respond to the distinct needs, circumstances, and priorities of Alaska Native learners and communities. The central aim is to support programs that are tailored to Alaska Native students rather than relying on one-size-fits-all approaches, with an emphasis on solutions that are culturally and locally grounded while still focused on measurable educational improvement.
Projects funded under this opportunity are required to include activities specifically authorized under section 6304(a)(2) of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 (ESEA), as amended. Applicants may also choose to include additional activities authorized under section 6304(a)(3) of the ESEA, which allows some flexibility to build more comprehensive project designs. While this synopsis points to those statutory sections as the controlling list of allowable activities, the full details, definitions, and any priority structure are contained in the official Federal Register application notice, which applicants are expected to consult for exact requirements.
From an administrative standpoint, this competition was posted with a creation date of June 4, 2019, and applications were made available the same day. The Department set a deadline for a Notice of Intent to Apply of May 31, 2019, and a final deadline for transmittal of applications of July 5, 2019. The Notice of Intent to Apply was strongly encouraged (but not mandatory) to help the Department plan its review workload; applicants were asked to email the program contact person with the subject line "Intent to Apply" and include the applicant name plus a contact person name and email address. Submitting a notice did not obligate an organization to apply, and not submitting one did not prevent an organization from applying.
Funding under this opportunity was structured with an award ceiling of $1,500,000 per grant, and the Department anticipated making roughly 40 awards. The listing identifies the funding instrument as a grant and the broader activity category as education. The opportunity number is ED GRANTS 060419 001, and it is categorized as a discretionary funding opportunity, meaning awards are competitive and made based on the criteria and priorities described in the official notice rather than by formula.
Eligibility is described in the summary as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," which is a signal that the eligible applicant types are not fully captured in the abbreviated listing and must be verified in the official Federal Register notice. In practice, that means any organization considering an application needs to confirm it meets the specific eligibility definitions and conditions stated in the notice, rather than relying on the shorthand category alone.
The synopsis repeatedly emphasizes that the Federal Register notice is the authoritative source for the competition. It directs applicants to review that notice for key items that are not fully spelled out in the brief description, including pre-application and application requirements, instructions for submitting an application, performance measures, program priorities, and contact information. It also points applicants to the Department of Education's Common Instructions for Applicants to Department of Education Discretionary Grant Programs (published February 13, 2019, 84 FR 3768) for standardized submission guidance and official addresses for obtaining and submitting an application. In short, the ANE program is a competitive OESE grant intended to foster innovative, ESEA-authorized educational efforts for Alaska Native students, with significant potential award amounts, a defined application window, and a strong expectation that applicants follow the Federal Register notice and the Department's common discretionary grant instructions for full compliance.
