The Small, Rural School Achievement Program
SRSAP is a rural school initiative with two components:
The eligibility requirements are the same for both components. However, the use of funds differs.
The U.S. Department of Education awards SRSAP funds annually directly to
eligible school districts on a formula basis. Funding does not flow through
OSPI.
You can apply for funds through the U.S. Department of Education's grants
website called “G5,” at www.G5.gov. The
application period will close by May 30. (Applications received after May 30
cannot be guaranteed funding.) The Department publishes an official notice
in the Federal Register to give notice to the public that the application
period is opening. The Federal Register notice includes the opening and
closing dates for the application and details about the school districts
that are eligible or need to apply for SRSA funds. The public notice
regarding SRSA is posted at
http://www2.ed.gov/programs/reapsrsa/applicant.html.
A school district that is eligible to participate in SRSAP may not
receive funding under the
RLIS program.
