Opportunity Information: Apply for ED GRANTS 051525 003

This federal grant opportunity, offered by the U.S. Department of Education through the Office of Elementary and Secondary Education (OESE), funds the replication and expansion of high-quality charter schools. Specifically, it's designed for charter school developers who want to replicate or grow existing successful charter schools in states that currently do not have an active CSP State Entity grant.

The grant program is referred to as the Charter Schools Program (CSP) Developer Grant, Assistance Listing Number 84.282E. Its primary goal is to support the development of high-performing charter schools that serve students at the elementary and/or secondary level. These schools may also provide early childhood or postsecondary education if allowed under their respective charters.

Eligible applicants are referred to as “developers,” which can include individuals or groups such as teachers, administrators, school staff, parents, or community members. Nonprofit organizations also qualify, provided they meet standard IRS or state nonprofit status documentation requirements. To apply, developers must have already submitted a charter school application to an authorized public chartering authority and must have provided timely notification of their intent to apply for this grant.

Only charter schools located in states that have laws allowing the creation of charter schools—but that do not currently have a CSP State Entity grant—are eligible. In general, schools that have been operating for more than five years are not eligible to use these funds to start a new school or replicate an existing one. However, they may still apply for expansion funding under this grant.

Applicants are encouraged to carefully review the official application notice for full details on eligibility, requirements, submission procedures, and deadlines. A separate document, the Revised Common Instructions, outlines how and where to submit applications.
