Can a county office of education complete and submit the application for a consortium of school districts?
No. As per the Settlement Agreement, VI. Cy Pres, G: Application by School Districts. School districts in which potentially Eligible Schools are located will be required to apply on behalf of such potentially Eligible Schools for the General Purpose Vouchers and Specific Category Software Vouchers made available in this cy pres program. Districts may choose to ask for assistance from their county office in developing and submitting their application, but each district’s application must be submitted separately. In addition, the simple, two paragraph application narrative is to explain how the vouchers will be utilized to support the implementation of the district’s state-approved technology plan. Using a template narrative for a group of districts would not be appropriate, unless the needs of each district were identical as per their state-approved technology plan.
