Note: The due date for the request for applications has passed. This page is for reference and administration of funding.
This is funding for small learning communities with students in grades 10-12 that are following the California Partnership Academy model, but are currently unfunded. The CPAs are effective school/district/business partnerships, providing integrated academic and career technical instruction to students who are at risk of dropping out of school or who are not motivated by traditional curricula. The CPA model, a school-within-a-school, for students in the tenth through twelfth grades, establishes viable partnerships with either the business community or the public sector or both. Emphasis is placed on student achievement, attendance, and program accountability. Only applicants that have fully operational career-focused programs, grades 10-12, currently unfunded and using the CPA model will be considered for new funding.
