I. Funding Opportunity Description
Purpose of Program: The purpose of
this program is to enhance the quality
and validity of assessment instruments
and systems used by States for
measuring the achievement of all
students. The grant funds may be used
for the development of new assessment
products or procedures, such as
innovative test formats, empirical
analysis of variations in test formats or
procedures, or statistical models useful
for combining data from multiple
measures, or charting student progress
over time.
Background: In addition to this
competition, the Department recently
announced that it will use
approximately $350 million under the
Race to the Top Fund for a Race to the
Top Assessment program to award
grants to consortia of States for the
development of common, high-quality
assessments aligned with an applicant
consortium’s common set of K–12
standards that are internationally
benchmarked and that build toward
college and career readiness by the time
of high school completion. We plan to
publish a notice inviting applications
for that competition in the near future.
In addition, the Department intends to
announce shortly a competition under
the Individuals with Disabilities
Education Act (IDEA) General
Supervision Enhancement Grants
(GSEG) program, inviting consortia of
States to apply for support to develop
common alternate assessments based on
alternate academic achievement
standards for students with the most
significant cognitive disabilities who are
eligible for such assessments. We
encourage you to conduct a
comprehensive review of these
announcements and design your
respective applications accordingly.
Priorities: This competition includes
four absolute priorities and three
competitive preference priorities. In
accordance with 34 CFR
75.105(b)(2)(iv), the absolute priorities
are based on those established in section
6112 of the Elementary and Secondary
Education Act of 1965, as amended
(ESEA) (20 U.S.C. 7301a). The
competitive preference priorities are
those established in Appendix E to the
notice of final requirements for optional
State consolidated applications
submitted under section 9302 of the
ESEA, published in the Federal Register
on May 22, 2002 (67 FR 35967).
Absolute Priorities: For FY 2009 funds
to be awarded through a competition
conducted in 2010, these priorities are
absolute priorities. Under 34 CFR
PO 00000
Frm 00020
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
75.105(c)(3), we consider only
applications that meet one or more of
these priorities.
These priorities are:
Absolute Priority 1. Collaborate with
institutions of higher education, other
research institutions, or other
organizations to improve the quality,
validity, and reliability of State
academic assessments beyond the
requirements for these assessments
described in section 1111(b)(3) of the
ESEA.
Absolute Priority 2. Measure student
academic achievement using multiple
measures of student academic
achievement from multiple sources.
Absolute Priority 3. Chart student
progress over time.
Absolute Priority 4. Evaluate student
academic achievement through the
development of comprehensive
academic assessment instruments, such
as performance- and technology-based
academic assessments.
Competitive Preference Priorities:
Under 34 CFR 75.105(c)(2)(i), we award
up to an additional 35 points to an
application, depending on how well the
application meets these competitive
preference priorities.
For FY 2009 funds to be awarded
through a competition conducted in
2010, these priorities are:
Competitive Preference Priority 1.
Accommodations and alternate
assessments (20 points). Applications
that can be expected to advance practice
significantly in the area of increasing
accessibility and validity of assessments
for students with disabilities or limited
English proficiency, or both, including
strategies for test design, administration
with accommodations, scoring, and
reporting.1
Competitive Preference Priority 2.
Collaborative efforts (10 points).
Applications that are sponsored by a
consortium of States.
Competitive Preference Priority 3.
Dissemination (5 points). Applications
that include an effective plan for
dissemination of results.
Program Authority: 20 U.S.C. 7301a
and 7842.
Applicable Regulations: (a) The
Education Department General
Administrative Regulations (EDGAR) in
34 CFR parts 74, 75, 77, 80, 81, 82, 84,
85, 86, 97, 98, and 99. (b) The notice of
final requirements published in the
1 As noted above, the Department also intends to
announce shortly a competition under the General
Supervision Enhancement Grants (GSEG) program

to support the development of common alternate
assessments based on alternate academic
achievement standards for students with the most
significant cognitive disabilities.
