Summary

The board approved the district’s 2024–25 consolidated grants application under ESSA. Administration listed program allocations (Title I $93,471; Title II $38,854; Title III $6,412; Title IV $10,000) and noted the application is an annual required submission.

The Guilford Board of Education approved submission of its annual consolidated grants application under the Every Student Succeeds Act, which lists how federal program allocations will be distributed across district programs.

During the presentation, administration recited program allocations on the record: Title I Part A was listed at $93,471; Title II Part A at $38,854; Title III Part A at $6,412; and Title IV Part A at $10,000. The administration explained these funds support programs such as summer programming, professional development, English-language acquisition services and student academic enrichment.

The board approved the submission as presented. The meeting packet contained a final total that was unclear in the oral record; therefore this article lists the program allocations as recited rather than paraphrasing a single total figure.

What this means: approving the application authorizes the district to request these federal entitlements and allocate them according to the district’s spending plan consistent with ESSA requirements. The administration noted the amounts are typical for Guilford and that the district receives smaller entitlements than larger districts.
