What constitutes a “center” and how many centers may the applicant propose to serve with an Early Reading First Grant?
A center may be a classroom or multiple classrooms within a building or campus, or multiple buildings or campuses, within one LEA. For example, it may be a Head Start center with one or more classrooms or one or more buildings or campuses, or a private or non-profit preschool program with one or more classrooms, buildings, or campuses. The Secretary recommends that no more than five (5) centers (for center-based programs) be served with the applicant’s proposed program. This is an approximate guideline. Applicants may list more or fewer centers depending on their needs and capacity. Nevertheless, applicants should be sure to limit the scope of their proposed project sufficiently to ensure that resources are concentrated enough to achieve all their program goals and they become models of excellence within their educational communities. Applicants are encouraged to keep their focus on improving quality rather than quantity.
