TO THE ADMINISTRATOR ADDRESSED:
Subject: New or Expanded Financial Programs
During the last legislative session, legislators passed a package of new or expanded financial programs that provides support for state and local initiatives. This additional funding, which is intended to continue to raise student performance statewide, is targeted at children at every grade-level with a particular emphasis on the early grades.
Attached is a chart describing these programs as well as pertinent application requirements for each program. For assistance on any of the programs described in the chart, contact the individual or division listed as the program contact, or access the TEA Web site at http://www.tea.state.tx.us and click on the name of the appropriate department or division title.
Best wishes for a productive and rewarding school year.
Sincerely,
Felipe Alanis
Deputy Commissioner for
Programs and Instruction
