2009-2010 Request for Application(s) for Title III, Part A of the No Child Left
Behind Program
Due to the urgent nature of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA), the Florida
Department of Education (FLDOE) released the following mini-project applications in the month
of April: Title I Part, A, Improving the Academic Achievement of the Disadvantaged; Title I,
Part D, Subpart II, Local Programs for Neglected and Delinquent; and Individuals with
Disabilities Education Act (IDEA).
Since these ARRA applications took priority, the stand alone project applications have been
delayed. In an effort to release the Request for Application(s) [RFA(s)] as soon as possible for
the 2009-2010 fiscal year, the FLDOE is releasing each RFA as it is approved. The FLDOE is
pleased to provide you with the online 2009-2010 RFA for Title III.
The RFAs must be submitted electronically to the FLDOE as soon as possible but no later than
June 30, 2009. The applications can be accessed using the online system located at
http://data.fldoe.org/titlegrants.
The DOE 100A with original signature of the Superintendent or designee must be mailed to the
Office of Grants Management (OGM). The effective date of the RFA is determined by the
receipt of this document rather than the date the RFA is submitted using the online system. It is
