CLSD Cohort 2024

Comprehensive Literacy State Development (CLSD) Program Grant: Cohort 2024

The Department of Education has been awarded a Comprehensive Literacy State Development (CLSD) Program grant. This national grant aims to support the state in enhancing literacy outcomes across all grade levels. Currently, the Request for Application (RFA) for subgrantees is being drafted in alignment with the U.S. Department of Education's guidelines and will include specific, required action steps as well as monitoring expectations.

Grant awards will be allocated through a competitive process, and applications must clearly demonstrate the completion of the outlined action steps as described in the grant proposal. The Department emphasizes the importance of potential subgrantees understanding both the grant’s requirements and its monitoring plan.

Once finalized, the RFA will be distributed to each district superintendent.
