TO THE ADMINISTRATOR ADDRESSED:

SUBJECT:      2011-2012 Reallocations - Carl D. Perkins Career and Technical Education Act Grant Application

Reallocations

Reallocation amounts for the 2011–2012 Carl D. Perkins Career and Technical Education Act Grant will be available on or around January 9, 2012, on the Division of Grants Administration Federal Entitlements web page, online at http://www.tea.state.tx.us/index4.aspx?id=5040&menu_id=2147483678.
Texas Education Agency(TEA) staff will initiate budget adjustments and will adjust the largest budgeted class/object code to incorporate the reallocation amounts in January 2012. Once the reallocation process is completed, local educational agencies (LEAs) will receive email notifications of revisions to program budgets with their revised Notice of Grant Award (NOGA) attached to that email. Until those email notifications and attachments are distributed, TEA requests that LEAs not submit any amendments to claim 2011–2012 Carl D. Perkins Career and Technical Education Act reallocation funding.

Amendments

If necessary, once it receives email notification of the revisions to the program budget, an LEA may file an amendment to revise the budget entered by TEA staff. Please refer to the 2011–2012 eGrants Schedule Instructions for the Carl D. Perkins Career and Technical Education Act Grant Application (pp. 9–13) to determine if an amendment is necessary.
The deadline to submit an amendment requesting equipment is March 1, 2012.
The final deadline to submit all amendments is 5:00 p.m. Central Time, April 30, 2012.

Reporting Deadlines

The following table lists reporting deadlines for the 2011–2012 Carl D. Perkins Career and Technical Education Act Grant. LEAs that are awarded grants are responsible for meeting all deadlines.
Failure to meet deadlines may result in loss of funds and could cause the LEA to be identified as “high risk.”
