The period of performance runs from July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2027, with place of performance in San Bernardino, California. As a formula grant, the award was made directly to the LEA applicant meeting applicable statutory requirements under the Indian Education program. The district's Fiscal Services Division will administer the grant.
