About this opportunity

PCSGP Start-Up Subgrants identify funding levels and terms into four subgrant types: Planning, Implementation, Replication, and Expansion. For Fiscal Year 2024-25, the California Department of Education (CDE) has an approved pipeline and budget to award approximately 9 subgrants. The actual number and type of subgrants awarded during each Request for Application (RFA) competition may vary based on demand. If all authorized awards are not approved for funding, the CDE may open additional RFA competition events for new applicants until all of the allocated funds have been awarded.

Funding geography: Supplemental funding has been structured to encourage the use of different and innovative teaching methods pursuant to state law, provide parents/guardians and students with expanded choices in the types of educational opportunities that are available within the public school system pursuant to state law, and provide additional support for targeted student groups and high-cost programs.

Funding instrument: Grant. Issuing jurisdiction: California. This is not a geographic eligibility determination.
