This $7,870,027 Formula Grant award from the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education supports the English Language Acquisition State Grants program (CFDA 84.365). The grant period runs from July 1, 2021 to September 30, 2022.
Through this award and associated subawards, the Tennessee Department of Education and 33 local educational agencies will improve instruction for English learners. Funding will help school districts enhance teaching and learning for students from low-income backgrounds. Subawards range from $10,000 to over $1 million allocated to large urban districts. Rural districts may pool smaller subawards via consortia to jointly provide specialized English instruction. The grant aims to ensure English learners, including immigrant children and youth, develop proficiency and meet state academic standards.
