  5. Federal Funding Changes First 4 years of Title IID (‘02-03 to ‘05-06) • 50% formula and 50% competitive grants Fifth year of Title IID (‘06-07) • Federal funding decreased 50% • Change in federal law to drop formula and only issue competitive • Issued 20 basic competitive grants • Issued 6 center grants

  6. More Changes To Come • If congress level funds the program for 2007-08 and legislates continuation of the option of no formula grants… • Then NH will offer competitive grants like last year for high need districts based on Census poverty data. • Applications will look similar to previous years and be available as soon as USDOE informs us of final changes.

  7. Transferability • Can still do local transfers INTO Title IID up to 50%, must still have current approved tech plan on file and use 25% of funds for tech-related professional development • Can still do REAP flex up to 100%, must still have current approved tech plan on file but don’t have to meet 25% PD • SRSA or RLIS? Still need a tech plan but don’t need to meet 25% PD
