Opportunity Information: Apply for ED GRANTS 060223 001

The Supporting America s School Infrastructure (SASI) Grant Program is a discretionary grant opportunity run by the U.S. Department of Education s Office of Elementary and Secondary Education (OESE), listed under Assistance Listing Number (ALN) 84.184K. At a high level, SASI is designed to strengthen State-level capacity to help high-need school districts and schools improve their public school facilities. The program is not framed as a direct construction funding stream for every district; instead, it focuses on helping States better support local educational agencies (LEAs) in planning, coordinating, and leveraging a wider mix of resources already available across Federal, State, and local sources so that infrastructure improvements actually happen and are better targeted.

The purpose of the program is to ensure public school facilities become safer, healthier, more sustainable, and more equitable learning environments for students. In practical terms, this means the grants are meant to help States work with high-need LEAs and schools to make facility and environmental improvements that support student well-being and learning conditions. The emphasis on safe and supportive environments signals that the effort goes beyond basic repairs and can include broader improvements to the physical conditions that affect health, safety, and day-to-day school operations, while also centering equity so that communities with the greatest needs are not left behind.

Eligible applicants are primarily State governments, with additional eligibility details referenced in the official notice (the listing indicates State governments and "Others," with clarification provided in the Federal Register application notice). Because eligibility and requirements can vary depending on the exact language in the published notice, applicants are directed to consult the official Federal Register publication for the definitive rules, required application components, priorities, performance measures, and submission instructions. The notice also points applicants to the Department of Education s Revised Common Instructions for Applicants to Department of Education Discretionary Grant Programs (published December 7, 2022) for standardized guidance on how and where to obtain and submit applications.

Key dates for this competition were set as follows: applications became available June 5, 2023; the deadline for transmittal of applications was August 7, 2023; and the deadline for intergovernmental review was October 6, 2023. The Department also planned a pre-application webinar, with details posted on the program website (https://oese.ed.gov/offices/school-infrastructure-programs-sip/), which is typically intended to walk prospective applicants through program goals, required elements, and common compliance issues.

On funding size and scale, the opportunity listed an award ceiling of $5,000,000 and anticipated making about 8 awards. That suggests a relatively competitive national program with a limited number of sizable grants, aimed at creating strong State-level approaches that can influence and support multiple high-need districts rather than small, isolated projects. The funding instrument is a grant, and the activity category is education.

For official program questions, the listed contact was Staci Cummins at the U.S. Department of Education, 400 Maryland Avenue SW, Washington, DC 20202-6450, telephone 202-987-1674, email oese.school.infrastructure@ed.gov. As the synopsis repeatedly notes, the Federal Register notice is the controlling document, and it is the place to confirm precise eligibility, allowable activities, selection criteria, and any required partnerships or match expectations that may apply.
