Opportunity Information: Apply for ED GRANTS 032318 001
The Office of English Language Acquisition (OELA) Native American and Alaska Native Children in School (NAM) Program, CFDA 84.365C, is a discretionary grant opportunity run by the U.S. Department of Education. Its central purpose is to fund eligible organizations so they can build or strengthen their ability to deliver effective instruction and student supports for Native American students who are identified as English learners (ELs). The program explicitly includes Native Hawaiian and Native American Pacific Islander students within its intended population, and it is designed to address both language development and academic outcomes in ways that reflect the cultural and linguistic realities of the communities being served.
A defining feature of this opportunity is its dual-language emphasis. On one side, the program aims to increase English language proficiency and overall academic achievement for participating students. On the other side, it also seeks to support the teaching, learning, and study of Native American languages. In practice, that means the grants are meant to help communities and schools implement or expand approaches that strengthen students English skills while also sustaining and revitalizing Native languages through instruction, curriculum, and culturally grounded educational supports.
This funding opportunity is described as a synopsis of the official application notice published in the Federal Register, and applicants are directed to rely on that Federal Register notice for the controlling requirements. The notice is where an applicant would find the detailed rules on eligibility, application content and formatting, submission procedures, required performance measures, program priorities, and contact information. The summary also points applicants to the Department of Education Common Instructions for Applicants to Department of Education Discretionary Grant Programs (published February 12, 2018 at 83 FR 6003) for standard directions on where and how to obtain and submit an application.
Key administrative details provided in the listing include the funding opportunity number ED GRANTS 032318 001, with applications made available on March 23, 2018. The timeline included a deadline for a Notice of Intent to Apply on April 12, 2018, followed by a final application transmittal deadline of May 7, 2018. The opportunity anticipated making about 8 awards. The award ceiling is shown as 0 in the listing, which typically signals that the maximum award amount was not specified in that particular summary field and would need to be confirmed in the official Federal Register notice.
Eligibility is not fully spelled out in the synopsis, beyond being categorized broadly as Others with additional clarification promised in the official eligibility section of the notice. In other words, anyone considering applying would need to consult the Federal Register application notice to confirm whether their organization type and proposed partnership structure qualify under the program rules.
Overall, the NAM program under OELA is geared toward helping eligible entities develop strong, culturally and linguistically responsive educational services for Native American English learners, with the combined goal of better English proficiency, stronger academic performance, and meaningful support for Native language instruction and preservation. For exact eligibility definitions, required components, priorities, and evaluation expectations, the Federal Register notice is the authoritative source.Apply for ED GRANTS 032318 001
