PDE is pleased to announce that the Continuity of Education Equity Grant (CEEG) application is now live in eGrants.

Applicants may apply for one of two types of grants:

• Systemic Continuity of Education Equity Grant – LEAs eligible for systemic grants are those where more than 10% of students across the LEA are unable to participate in continuity of education. LEAs that do not currently have a continuity of education plan are highly encouraged to apply for a systemic grant.
• Student Group Continuity of Education Equity Grant – LEAs eligible for student group grants are those where more than 5% of students in a student group are unable to participate in continuity of education.

The following entities are eligible for a CEEG:

• Pennsylvania school districts, comprehensive Career & Technical Centers (CTCs), charter schools, and student programs run by Intermediate Units are eligible to apply individual applicants or as a consortium.
• Part-time CTCs are eligible to apply as part of a consortium with their local districts.
• If applying as a consortium, all consortium members must be eligible entities as defined above and meet the established threshold for the type of grant for which the consortium is applying. The consortium lead may be an Intermediate Unit.

Grant funding may be used for any of the following:

• Digital technology purchases, such as laptops, tablets, or hot spots;
• Non-digital purchases, such as paper, postage, or transportation of materials; or
• Low technology, high technology, and no technology accommodations that increase student access and participation in continuity of education.

The CEEG application closes Friday, April 10 at 11:59 p.m.
