Education Update: Federal Funding & Indirect Cost Rate for Charter Schools for 2016–2017

The 2016–2017 Request for Federal Funding & Indirect Cost Rate for Charter Schools (SC5050) is now available in eGrants. The SC5050 is an eGrants special collections report that applies only to the following applicants:
•    Open-enrollment charter schools
•    South Texas independent school district
•    Windham School District
•    Texas Juvenile Justice Department
•    Texas School for the Blind and Visually Impaired
•    Texas School for the Deaf

TEA will use this submission of the SC5050 to determine the applicant’s eligibility and planning amounts for No Child Left Behind (NCLB) and Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA, Part B) federal programs for the LEAs listed above, and for open-enrollment charter schools to request indirect cost rates.

SC5050 Deadline: April 7, 2016
 

To ensure eligibility and planning amounts are determined for the applicant, the SC5050 must be certified and submitted in eGrants no later than April 7, 2016.
 

Capturing Actual Enrollment Figures (REVISED)
 
The SC5050 form requests specific categories of actual enrollment data as of a specific date in the 2015–2016 school year. The applicant chooses the date, which cannot be later than the April 7, 2016, due date of the SC5050. Projected enrollment data is unacceptable.  
Please note that Part 4: Actual Enrollment of the SC5050 form now includes the following columns for the applicant to report actual enrollment by resident public school district: 
•    Total enrollment (ages 3 through 21),
•    Special education enrollment (ages 3 through 5), and
•    Special education enrollment (ages 3 through 21). 

The information submitted on the SC5050 form is binding. No changes will be allowed after the form is submitted.  Applicants are advised to ensure data entered has been thoroughly reviewed for accuracy and that auditable documentation is on file to support the data reported.
