The purpose of this program is to provide grants to state educational agencies to enable them to design, develop, and implement statewide, longitudinal data systems to efficiently and accurately manage, analyze, disaggregate, and use individual student data, consistent with the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965. The long-term goal of the program is to assist states in generating and using accurate and timely data to meet reporting requirements, support decision-making at state, district, school, and classroom levels; and facilitate research needed to eliminate achievement gaps and improve learning of all students.
The eGrants system is designed to allow licensed educational agencies and certain community-based programs within the Commonwealth online access to many of the PA Department of Education grants.

Grant writers might be overlooking a key “gift” from funders that can help

One of the greatest challenges for educators is finding sources of money to
allow for innovation and technology in the classroom. Funding is barely
available to pay salaries and buy basic supplies. Therefore, teachers and
administrators who truly wish to try new ideas that require additional funds
have to personally find sources for this money. Grants can be a godsend to solve
financial shortcomings. However, two major stumbling blocks are associated with
attaining grants: locating them and writing them.
CoSN launched its "Taking TCO to the Classroom" project to provide school leaders with tools to help them estimate the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) for their networked computing infrastructure.
