7: Special Education Enhancement and Development (SEED) Grant Public Act 25-67 (Sec. 7) entitles each school board to a new special education expansion and development (SEED) grant. The SEED grant allocations are calculated similar to the Education Cost Sharing (ECS) formula outlined in Connecticut General Statute § 10-262f.
The board of education receives the SEED grant payments in the amount of 25 percent of their allocation in October, 25 percent of their allocation in January, and the balance of their allocation by April. In accordance with PA 25-67 § 7 (e) (1), SEED grant funds can only be used for special education purposes.
SEED funds can be used for direct provision of special education and related services to students; Tier 2 interventions; academic and behavioral interventions; the hiring and salaries of special education teachers, paraeducators, and behavioral and reading specialists who work directly with students; equipment purchases and maintenance; and curriculum materials.
SEED funds cannot be used for administrative functions or operating expenses related to the provision of special education and related services; or special education and related services provided by any third-party contractor. NOTE: The legislation outlines penalties for improper use of SEED grant funds.
Any school board that receives a SEED grant of $10,000 or more shall submit an expenditure report, which includes a summary and itemization of how grant funds were used.

Improving Undergraduate STEM Education: Education & Human Resources (IUSE: EHR) Program is sponsored by National Science Foundation (NSF). This program promotes novel, creative, and transformative approaches to generating and using new knowledge about STEM teaching and learning to improve STEM education for undergraduate students. It supports projects that bring recent advances in STEM knowledge into undergraduate education, adapt, improve, and incorporate evidence-based practices, and lay the groundwork for institutional improvement in STEM education. Professional development for instructors to ensure adoption of new and effective pedagogical techniques is a potential topic of interest.
The National Leadership Grants for Libraries Program (NLG-L) supports projects that address critical needs of the library and archives fields and have the potential to advance practice and strengthen library and archival services for the American public. Successful proposals will generate results such as new models, tools, research findings, services, practices, and/or alliances that can be widely used, adapted, scaled, or replicated to extend and leverage the benefits of federal investment. Applications to IMLS should both advance knowledge and understanding and ensure that the federal investment made generates benefits to society. Specifically, the goals for this program are to generate projects of far-reaching impact that: • Build the workforce and institutional capacity for managing the national information infrastructure and serving the information and education needs of the public. • Build the capacity of libraries and archives to lead and contribute to efforts that improve community well-being and strengthen civic engagement. • Improve the ability of libraries and archives to provide broad access to and use of information and collections with emphasis on collaboration to avoid duplication and maximize reach. • Strengthen the ability of libraries to provide services to affected communities in the event of an emergency or disaster. • Strengthen the ability of libraries, archives, and museums to work collaboratively for the benefit of the communities they serve. Throughout its work, IMLS places importance on diversity, equity, and inclusion. This may be reflected in an IMLS-funded project in a wide range of ways, including efforts to serve individuals of diverse geographic, cultural, and socioeconomic backgrounds; individuals with disabilities; individuals with limited functional literacy or information skills; individuals having difficulty using a library or museum; and underserved urban and rural communities, including children from families with incomes below the poverty line.
