    Abstract: This is a request for an extension without change of an 
existing information collection, 1810-0763. The Project Support 
America's Families and Educators (SAFE) grant program is intended to 
improve students' safety and well-being by providing resources to local 
educational agencies (LEAs) that adopt and implement strategies to 
prevent the spread of the Novel Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) 
consistent with guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and 
Prevention (CDC) and that are financially penalized for doing so by 
their State educational agency (SEA) or other State entity. Under the 
Project SAFE grant program, applications will be submitted on a rolling 
basis before the end of fiscal year 2021 and throughout fiscal year 
2022. Upon receipt of the applications, the intent is to quickly review 
and make approval decisions of awards as quickly as possible to make 
the award the funds before the end of this fiscal year.
