Formula Grant S369A210033

The New York State Education Department received a $14.2 million formula grant award from the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education under the Grants for State Assessments and Related Activities program (CFDA 84.369). The grant supports the development and administration of standards and assessments as required under Title I of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act. Specifically, the funding will pay costs associated with New York State's standards and the high-quality assessments aligned to those standards from July 1, 2021 through September 30, 2022. The Grants for State Assessments and Related Activities program provides formula funding to states once they have established academic standards and assessments, which can then be used to administer those assessments.
