Title II, Part A provides agencies with the flexibility to use these funds creatively to address challenges to teacher quality, whether they concern teacher preparation and qualifications of new teachers, recruitment and hiring, induction, professional development, teacher retention, or the need for more capable principals and assistant principals to serve as effective school leaders.” (Title II, Part A, § 2101)

The Impact Aid law (now Title VII of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965) has been amended numerous times since its inception in 1950.

E-Rate is a federal program that is funded by a telephone usage tax. It is officially known as the Universal Service Fund Schools and Libraries Division. This fund provides funds for Internet Access, Telecommunications, and Connectivity. (in plain language-that would be the Internet, all the phones, and the servers, wiring, and other equipment that constitute the school network). This funding is based on our percentage of students eligible for free and reduced lunch and the ongoing submission of required applications and documentation. This program does not purchase classroom equipment or software.
Oklahoma Universal Service Fund-This program complements the federal Universal Service Fund and picks up the 10-20% of the Internet Access and Telecommunications not covered by E-Rate. This program also requires free and reduced lunch data and application and reporting. This program does not purchase classroom computers or software.
Emergency Connectivity Fund-This program previously provided funding to schools and libraries for the reasonable costs of laptop and tablet computers; Wi-Fi hotspots; routers; modems; and broadband Internet connections for use by students, school staff, and library patrons at locations that include locations other than a school or library. Funding was limited to students, school staff and library patrons who would otherwise lack access to connected devices and broadband Internet services sufficient to engage in remote learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. This program has ended; however, families may qualify for the Affordable Connectivity Program. Resources are available at https://www.fcc.gov/acp or check eligibility and start an application at GetInternet.gov Eligible households can also enroll through an approved provider.
Innovative Approaches to Literacy
The IAL program supports high-quality programs designed to develop and improve literacy skills for children and students from birth through 12th grade in high-need local educational agencies (LEAs) and schools. IAL promotes innovative literacy programs that support the development of literacy skills in low-income communities, including programs that (1) develop and enhance effective school library programs, which may include providing professional development for school librarians, books, and up-to-date materials to high-need schools; (2) provide early literacy services, including pediatric literacy programs through which, during well-child visits, medical providers trained in research-based methods of early language and literacy promotion provide developmentally appropriate books and recommendations to parents to encourage them to read aloud to their children starting in infancy; and (3) provide high-quality books on a regular basis to children and adolescents from low-income communities to increase reading motivation, performance, and frequency. Grand View is in the second year of this grant. It may be funded for up to 5 years per cycle.
