Sustainability Plan (System-wide or Project)
Systemic Change: Per statute, each district or charter receiving funds should develop a sustainability plan describing how they will “…maintain a mastery-based approach to education. Plans must include a process to develop the rubrics and assessments necessary to determine mastery and award credit”. NOTE: Rubrics and assessments are only part of mastery and takes years to reach this level of work. Understandably, they may not be part of initial grant application planning. These grants are intended to support work for 2 years. Project: Projects may be part of systemic change, but they have a different focus and typically fulfill a non-systemic need. As necessary, please explain what it will take to sustain the project and potential resources necessary to fill potential ongoing needs. ~250 words.
Spending (Grant Funding Request)
Please share a simple description of how the funds will be spent. (See Pages 3, of the grant application guideline for additional information, page 8 for a breakdown of spending categories and Appendix IV for guidelines on allowable amounts, restricted items, etc.) 250 words.
