The Committee for Literacy Achievement/HQ Literacy Materials Grant
Section 35m of the FY 2025 State School Aid Act provides $87,000,000 to MDE to create a Committee for Literacy Achievement and allocate funding based on a rankings list of materials. The Committee for Literacy Achievement will critically evaluate early literacy series and materials, literacy professional development, and literacy tools or services. The Committee for Literacy Achievement will also create and maintain a rankings list for all early literacy items the Committee has evaluated. Once lists are established, districts will apply for funding based on the rankings list of early literacy items (e.g., early literacy series, materials, professional learning, tools, and services).
Grant Application
The grant application for the Section 35m Committee for Literacy Achievement / HQ Literacy Materials Grant will open in NexSys in Summer 2025.
