EANS (Emergency Assistance to Non-Public Schools)
This relief funding is unique as it is designated to provide services or assistance to eligible non-public schools to address educational disruptions caused by COVID-19. In Montana, Non-Public Schools includes homeschool families and private schools.
ARP EANS II
The ARP EANS II Intent to Apply application went live on October 24th. As the eligibility requirements for the ARP EANS funds differs from the CRRSA EANS funds, applicants will be asked to take a short survey to determine their eligibility. No reimbursements for previous purchases or expenses can be paid. Requested services and items will be procured for applicants.
The Intent to Apply survey is available to all non-public school participants. This short survey will determine ARP EANS eligibility. If your school received funding under CRRSA EANS I, you can log into the e-grants system and the Intent to Apply button will be available. For new applicants, please refer to the website at www.opi.mt.gov and click on the red EANS button. You will find New Applicant information in the EANS II Update box. Applicants will have until September of 2024 to expend funds.
CRRSA EANS I
The application for these funds closed on August 27th. The Cash Request application for allowable reimbursement costs started on September 22nd.
The Additional Needs survey for CRRSA EANS I applicants closed on November 22nd. The additional requests are being reviewed for approval.
A contract for the procurement of requested services and allowable items is being finalized. We are striving to have that process ready for applicants by the end of this month. Applicants have until September of 2023 to expend funds.
For further information or if you have questions, please contact Janey Salomon, OPI EANS Grant Manager or go to the EANS webpage.
