The Early Literacy Success Initiative grant application window will open Dec. 1 and close Jan. 8. With the new initiative’s quick implementation, the Oregon Department of Education is encouraging districts to start planning now.

ODE’s initiative webpage includes resource links for framework information and tools to apply.

The grant application must be approved by a school board in an open meeting and the minutes submitted to ODE before Feb. 28 to complete the process. The $90 million for noncompetitive grants will begin flowing in the spring.
