Gov. Grants for Educators

Charter School Program (CSP): The purpose of the CSP is to increase national understanding of the charter  school model and to expand the number of high quality  charter schools available to students across the Nation by providing financial assistance for the  planning, program design, and initial implementation  of charter schools, and to evaluate the effects of charter  schools, including their effects on students, student  academic achievement, staff, and parents. The  Secretary awards grants to State educational agencies  (SEAs) to enable them to conduct charter school  programs in their States. SEAs use their CSP funds to  award subgrants to non-SEA eligible applicants for  planning, program design, and initial implementation of a charter school, and to support the dissemination of information about, including information on successful practices in, charter schools.

Applications Available: December 3, 2007.

Deadline for Transmittal of Applications: February
1, 2008.

Eligible Applicants: State educational agencies  (SEA) in States with a State statute specifically  authorizing the establishment of charter schools.

Estimated Range of Awards: $500,000-$10,000,000 per year.

Estimated Average Size of Awards: $5,000,000 per year.

Estimated Number of Awards: 8-10. Additional information is available online at: http://www.ed.gov/legislation/FedRegister/announcements/2007-4/120307a.html
