BOARD AGENDA ITEM

Item Title:Approval of 2024-25 Consolidated Application for Funding Categorical Programs
Item Type:Consent
Background:

The Consolidated Application for Funding Categorical Programs is the District’s annual application to the State for specified categorical program funds. 

 

While in December 2015 the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) was signed into law, the Consolidated Application process put into place during The No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (NCLB) has continued to serve as the method of applying for and reporting on federal categorical funds for school districts.

 

The Alameda Unified School District programs funded through the Consolidated Application for 2024-25 are the following:

  • Title I, Part A (Basic Grant)

  • Title II, Part A (Supportive Effective Instruction)

  • Title III, Part A (English Learner)

  • Title III, Part A (Immigrant)

  • Title IV, Part A (Student and School Support)

 

The Consolidation Application (ConApp) is typically released by the California Department of Education (CDE) in April/May with a June submission by Local Education Agencies (LEAs). In addition to Board action, the ConApp also needs to be approved by the District’s English Language Advisory Group (DELAC).

 

Staff is requesting Board approval of this item.
