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.
