Direct Student Services
Title I: Direct Student Services Grant
The Direct Student Services grant provides local education agencies (LEAs) with an opportunity to create and expand high-quality, meaningful, and engaging programming for low-achieving students. This opportunity is only available to LEAs that are either implementing a new program or expanding a currently provided program to impact a larger audience of students. LEAs should target the lowest-achieving students, but can expand to all students while evaluating different program options to best serve students and parents.
Grant applicants should read the Direct Student Services grant information document below and complete the application within Grants Management Enterprise within ADEConnect.
Applicants may apply for the maximum amount based on the following enrollment criteria:
• LEAs with enrollment of less than 1,200 students - $20,000
• LEAs with enrollment between 1,200 and 10,000 students - $50,000
• LEAs with enrollment greater than 10,000 students - $100,000
These amounts are not guaranteed, as funding is competitive based on applicant scoring and performance. LEAs obligating and expending funds for this grant are required to follow all normal state and federal procurement requirements.
