Yes you can, but it is also a competitive grant process so there is
possibility you may not get the grant as well. There is not any details yet
so I don't know the process. Further instructions will be coming as more is
known.

Scott,
What if we definitely DO want to go through the hoops of filing on our
own for E2T2 Grant dollars.
Can we get out of our consortium? To me, now would be the perfect time!
What should I do to make this happen?

I am in a meeting now learning the latest on the E2T2 and ARRA funds.
Here is what to expect
ARRA funds will be 100% competitive grants. Grants will be filled
on-line.
This is still in limbo, but the website is
https://iowagrants.gov
There will also be new E2T2 Grant application as well, but I don't see
that
individual districts will want to go through the hoops to file on their
own.
The Iowa DE current view is to keep the current E2T2 Consortia intact.
E2T2 Funds may still be through the existing Consortia. (Yes I expect
new
schools will be allowed in, but it is too new to know how it will work
now)
Regardless there is a QUARTERLY reporting requirements, and complete
transparency in funds usage. If part of a consortia the reporting will
be
done by the consortia.
IMHO: I don't expect that it will be money that each district can spend
as
they want. The Iowa DE does not have the resources to review 360
reports
four times a year.
The next big question is what is next year E2T2 consortia going to look
like. I can speculate it will continue with reading, but could
transition
to math. The funds will purchase at least 40% Professional Development,
and
some is going to purchase technology for the districts. As the
consortia
the purchases will be determined and applied to all participating
districts.
It could be Hardware, On-Line resource subscription, and/or software.
This
is all VERY new information so no details have been discussed. Once se
know
more info we will send it out.
