Which districts are eligible for SchoolNet Plus Grade 8, and what are their allocation amounts?
Ohio local, city and exempted village school districts are eligible if they served students in Grade 8 in FY07 and did not receive SchoolNet Plus Grant funds in FY06 or FY07. Community Schools that have served Grade 8 students since FY05 and did not receive SchoolNet Plus funds in FY06 or FY07 are also eligible for SchoolNet Plus Grade 8 funds in FY08. Educational Service Centers that provided direct instruction to students in Grade 8 last year are encouraged to work with the students’ home districts to receive funding to support the acquisition of computers for Grade 8 classrooms. All eligible entities must have a current (less than three-year-old), eTech Ohio approved technology plan to be considered for grant approval. Allocations can be viewed under your school district’s organization profile in Hall Pass.
