[RIMS CTAP] RIMS School districts and charter schools compete for $1.6 Million for Education Technology

[RIMS CTAP Newsletter]

On June 11, the CDE released the Request for Applications (RFA) for Round 6
of the Enhancing Education Through Technology Competitive funding (EETT-C).
For more information on the newly released RFA and the list of eligible
school districts and direct-funded charter schools, visit the CDE website
http://www.cde.ca.gov/fg/fo/profile.asp?id=1101

There are over 56 school districts and direct-funded charter schools eligible
in Region 10 RIMS (Riverside, Inyo, Mono and San Bernardino Counties). The
district superintendents and direct-funded charter school directors have been
notified of their eligibility.

The dollar amount allocated for Region 10 is $1,623,444, and because the
maximum any district can receive is 60% of the total regional allocation,
districts interested in applying should plan on servicing approximately 3,200
students only in grades 4 through 8.

You may download the RFA below, or view it at
http://www.cde.ca.gov/fg/fo/r5/eettc07rfa.asp

The submission date is July 27, 2007, which will require interested districts
to gear up quickly. To assist you in the planning and writing of your
proposal, please carefully review the documents (links) located at the end of
this article.

If you are interested in partnering with RIMS CTAP Region 10 for this grant
application, we are excited about the prospect in working with you. Due to
the individualized needs of each district, we suggest you contact us directly
so that we may dialog about customized services we might provide.

Please know that RIMS CTAP is here to support you through this process.
