On October 9, the New Jersey Department of Education (NJDOE) announced that applications for the School Security, Water Infrastructure Improvement, and County Vocational School District (CVSD) Career and Technical Education (CTE) grants are now open.
New Jersey voters approved the Securing Our Children’s Future Bond Act (Act) in November 2018. In approving the Securing Our Children’s Future Bond Act, New Jersey voters authorized the issuance of $500 million in State general obligation bonds, with the proceeds from the bonds funding grants to county vocational school districts and county colleges to construct and equip education facilities in order to expand existing or offer new career and technical education programs. Money will also be used for school security upgrades and school district water infrastructure improvement projects. The funds are allocated as follows:
The NJDOE recently issued timelines, eligibility requirements, and application materials for the School Security, Water Infrastructure Improvement, and CVSD CTE grants. Below are a few key takeaways from the NJDOE guidelines:
The grant applications are now available on NJDOE Homeroom. The School Security Grant application is available through the link to the EWEG system, and the applications for the Water Infrastructure Improvement and CVSD CTE grants are available through separate links on the NJDOE Homeroom webpage.
School Security and Water Infrastructure Improvement grant applications are due on November 20, 2020, and the CVSD CTE grant application is due March 1, 2021.
