About this opportunity

Supporting America's School Infrastructure Grant Program (SASI) Grant Type Discretionary grant Office Office of Elementary and Secondary Education (OESE) More Grants from OESE > ALN 84.184K Contact [email protected] 202-987-0602 Eligibility Consortia State Educational Agencies (SEAs) Application Deadline Application Status Closed Home Funding and Legislation Awards Overview The purpose of this program is to increase the capacity of States to support high-need local educational agencies (LEAs) and schools in leveraging other available local resources to improve school facilities and environments through public school infrastructure improvements to ensure that their public school facilities are equitable learning environments for all students. The Notice Inviting Applications was issued for fiscal year 2023. On November 17, 2023, the Department of Education awarded approximately $37 million in new funds over the next five years for the first-ever Supporting America's School Infrastructure (SASI) program to eight state entities. See the Awards tab for more information about the program and grantees. Legislation SASI awards are authorized by Section 4631(a)(1)(B) of the ESEA (20 7281) and Department of Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education, and Related Agencies Appropriations Bill, 2023, 117-403, www.congress.gov/congressional-report/117th-congress/house-report/403/1 . FY 2023 Grant Awards Applicant Name: Alabama State Department of Education PR Award Number: S184K230003 Funding Amount: $4,565,574.00 The proposed SASI grant project for Alabama aims to bring about transformative changes in 21 high need Local Education Agencies (LEAs) by addressing their unique challenges and significantly improving the quality of education and learning environments for their students. The project offers a range of services to achieve these goals. One key aspect of the project is conducting an expert assessment of school facility conditions in each identified LEA. This assessment will identify critical areas for improvement, leading to enhanced learning environments more conducive to academic success. The project will also guide the seven LEAs unable to issue bonds, helping them navigate this process to secure funding for capital improvements. Additionally, all 21 LEAs will be empowered to explore sustainable funding options for facility enhancements, breaking the cycle of inadequate funding and offering a pathway for long-term improvements. With an average age of 43 years for school facilities in the identified LEAs, many structures may require extensive modernization. The project will enable comprehensive renovations and upgrades, creating technologically advanced learning environments. These improvements will foster increased community engagement and support, symbolizing a commitment to the well-being of students and instilling pride within the communities served. The project's focus on facility improvements and training in best practices for maintenance and operations will create a positive atmosphere for both students and educators, resulting in improved learning outcomes. Moreover, the project's targeted approach to high-need LEAs with significant poverty rates will directly address educational disparities and inequities in underserved communities, leveling the playing field for students in these areas. Overall, the proposed SASI grant project will move the 21 identified high-need LEAs in Alabama. By addressing critical issues such as poor facility conditions, lack of funding for capital improvements, and underrepresentation in local bond issuances, the project will lead to modernized infrastructure, enhanced learning environments, and increased opportunities for academic success.
