Opportunity Summary:
The Office of Elementary and Secondary Education (OESE) School Climate Transformation Grant Program, Local Educational Agency Grants (CFDA 84.184G), is a discretionary grant competition run by the U.S. Department of Education. The central goal of the program is to help local educational agencies (LEAs) build, strengthen, or scale up schoolwide systems that support students behavior and overall learning conditions. In practical terms, the grants are meant to help districts put in place (or improve) an evidence-based, multi-tiered behavioral framework across schools, along with the support structures and technical assistance needed to implement that framework well and sustain it over time. The emphasis is on improving behavioral outcomes and creating better learning environments for all students, not just addressing isolated discipline problems.
This opportunity is competitive, meaning eligible applicants submit proposals and awards are made based on how well applications meet the program requirements and selection criteria described in the official Federal Register notice. The synopsis provided notes that applicants should rely on the Federal Register application notice as the authoritative source for details such as eligibility nuances, required application components, priorities, performance measures, and any pre-application or submission rules. The announcement also points readers to the Federal Register and Code of Federal Regulations via GPO Access for free public access to the official text.
Eligibility is limited to LEAs or consortia of LEAs, using the definition found in section 9101(26) of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA). There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement listed, so applicants are not required to contribute a match as a condition of receiving funds. The funding is associated with CFDA 84.184 (Safe and Drug-Free Schools and Communities National Programs), with the specific competition identified by the suffix letter G (84.184G) for this local educational agency-focused grant.
For the FY 2014 competition described, the Department anticipated making about 118 awards using an estimated total funding amount of $23,625,000. The listed award ceiling is $750,000, which indicates the maximum amount an individual grant could receive under this competition. Key dates in the notice include a posted date of May 7, 2014, with applications made available the same day, and an application deadline (deadline for transmittal) of June 23, 2014. The archive date is July 23, 2014, reflecting that the posting is historical once the competition window closed.
Applications had to be submitted electronically through Grants.gov, using the Grants.gov Apply system. Applicants were instructed to download the application package, complete it offline, and then upload and submit it through the portal. The notice explicitly states that applications could not be submitted by emailing an electronic copy to the Department. A small but important technical instruction is included for locating the package on Grants.gov: applicants had to search by the CFDA number without the alpha suffix, meaning they should search for 84.184 rather than 84.184G.
For support and official communication, the notice provides contacts for both technical and program-related questions. Technical issues accessing the full announcement or using the electronic systems could be directed to Julius Cotton (ED Grants.gov FIND Systems Admin) at 202-245-6288 or EducationGrantInquiries@ed.gov.
