The Department of Education is inviting applications for the Full-Service Community Schools (FSCS) program for the fiscal year 2021, under the Assistance Listing Number 84.215J. This program supports schools that provide a range of services, including educational, social, and health services, particularly in high-poverty areas. Interested entities, such as local educational agencies and community organizations, must submit applications by March 1, 2021, and are required to match funds as part of their budget. The program emphasizes collaboration among partners to effectively deliver services to children and families.
Simple Explanation
The Department of Education wants schools to help kids by offering things like tutoring and counseling, especially in places where many families don't have much money. Schools can ask for money to do this, but they need to work with others and share some of the costs.
