Some of the eligible school districts do not have high military student populations. How were the school districts selected?
A8. K-12 school districts associated with installations that have a projected student growth of 400 or more students between SY07-08 and SY08-09 met the first eligibility requirement. The competition’s eligibility requirements were based on military student growth projections from multiple sources, including the Report to Congress (March 2008). The second eligibility requirement is determined by the school districts—not DoDEA. Eligible K-12 school districts may submit one proposal. The proposal must target one or more schools that meet the following military student enrollment requirements. First, each target school’s SY08-09 enrollment must include at least 15 percent military students. Second, the total number of military students at the target school(s) must be at least 200.
