Formula Grant S424A260006

The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded $12,953,560 to the Board of Education Colorado on July 1, 2026, under the Student Support and Academic Enrichment Grants program (CFDA 84.424). The award funds activities through September 30, 2027, with place of performance at Denver, Colorado.

The Student Support and Academic Enrichment Grants program improves student academic achievement by increasing the capacity of States and local educational agencies to provide all students access to a well-rounded education, improve school conditions for student learning, and enhance the use of technology to improve academic achievement and digital literacy. The Board of Education Colorado, as a State educational agency, must reserve at least 95 percent of its allocation for subgrants to local educational agencies (LEAs) and Indian tribal schools, with no more than 1 percent reserved for administrative costs. LEAs receiving allocations of $30,000 or more must conduct comprehensive needs assessments and dedicate at least 20 percent of funds to well-rounded educational opportunities, at least 20 percent to safe and healthy student support, and a portion to effective technology use. LEAs receiving less than $30,000 must use funds for activities in at least one of these three areas. Each subgrant must be for one year in an amount of not less than $10,000. The Board may support State-level monitoring and technical assistance activities with remaining funds.
