Funding posture

Rare NOFOs under a mega ceiling

School Improvement Grants pairs a mega SAM.gov ceiling ($2.0 million to $25.0 million) with a sparse Grants.gov trail (2 indexed rows). Large paper capacity, few public solicitations: watch the open flags on those scarce listings rather than expecting a steady NOFO cadence.

Assistance Listing text · ED

Grants to identify and turn around persistently lowest-performing schools.

Public-sector applicant lane · ED

SAM.gov lists only government/tribal applicants for School Improvement Grants. This is a public-sector Assistance Listing corridor, not a general nonprofit or small-business open call.
