Opportunity Information: Apply for ED GRANTS 050223 001

The State Tribal Education Partnership (STEP) Grant Program (Assistance Listing Number 84.415A) is a discretionary grant opportunity from the U.S. Department of Education, Office of Elementary and Secondary Education (OESE), Office of Indian Education (OIE). The program is designed to strengthen Tribal leadership and authority in education by supporting Tribal self-determination, improving the academic outcomes of American Indian and Alaska Native students, and building more effective working relationships among Tribal educational agencies (TEAs), State educational agencies (SEAs), and local educational agencies (LEAs). The core idea behind STEP is that better student outcomes are more likely when Tribes have a stronger role in shaping education systems and when state, local, and Tribal partners coordinate in ways that reflect the unique educational and culturally related academic needs of Indian children and youth.

This opportunity is published as a synopsis and points applicants to the official application notice in the Federal Register as the controlling document for requirements, definitions, priorities, performance measures, and submission instructions. It also directs applicants to use the Department of Education Revised Common Instructions for Applicants to Department of Education Discretionary Grant Programs (published December 7, 2022) for the authoritative details on how to obtain and submit an application, including formatting and procedural requirements. In other words, the short description provides the headline purpose and key dates, but the Federal Register notice governs the actual rules of the competition.

Eligible applicants include federally recognized Native American tribal governments and Native American tribal organizations (other than federally recognized tribal governments). The listing also indicates that additional entities may be eligible depending on the clarification provided in the official notice (not included in the synopsis), so any prospective applicant would need to confirm eligibility details directly from the Federal Register publication for this competition. The funding instrument is a grant, and the program is categorized under education as a discretionary funding opportunity administered by the Department of Education.

Key administrative details for this competition include the opportunity number ED GRANTS 050223 001 and an original application deadline of July 3, 2023, with applications made available May 2, 2023. The Department set a deadline for a Notice of Intent to Apply on June 1, 2023, and scheduled a pre-application webinar for May 17, 2023, which typically serves to walk potential applicants through program goals, allowable activities, and application expectations. The deadline for intergovernmental review is listed as August 30, 2023, which is relevant for applicants in jurisdictions participating in that review process. The synopsis notes an expectation of 8 awards. The award ceiling is listed as 0 in the extracted data, which usually indicates that the ceiling amount is not specified in that particular field and should be verified in the official Federal Register notice.

For questions, the program contact is Donna Bussell at the U.S. Department of Education (400 Maryland Avenue, SW, room 3W239, Washington, DC 20202-6335), reachable by phone at 202-987-0204 or by email at donna.bussell@ed.gov. The summary also emphasizes that applicants should rely on the Federal Register notice for the full set of application requirements, priorities, and performance measures, since that is the official source that governs what must be submitted and how proposals will be reviewed and scored.
