Review the 2026 Priority List (PDF) Important Priority List information Most school construction projects looking for state funding need to be on the Priority List that is approved by the legislature, with some exceptions such as roof and boiler replacements, code violation remediation, and repairs to damage caused by fire or other catastrophe.
These exceptions are called Non-Priority List projects and they can be approved directly by the commissioner of DAS. You may find information on the Non-priority List at the following link: Non-Priority List (CT. gov) .
The yearly timeline for getting a project grant authorized on the Priority List is: June 30 – Grant applications are due. December 15 – DAS submits the Priority List to the governor and Education Committee for review. Prior to February 1 – The Education Committee approves or changes the Priority List and submits it to the governor and General Assembly.
Please note: The issuance of state grant commitments is not to be confused with the approval to begin construction. The licensed architects within the Department of Administrative Services oversee all plan approval requirements for public school construction projects seeking state grant assistance. Each project requires plan approval of each relevant phase prior to the work being publicly bid.
Construction costs expended on projects that have not received plan approval to be publicly bid will be ineligible for grant assistance. Spring/summer – The Connecticut General Assembly authorizes the commissioner of DAS to give out grants on behalf of the state. DAS lets grant applicants know their decisions.
