Welcome to LASO II!

The Technology Lending Grant (TLG) is awarded to provide the students with access to high-quality digital learning resources. The grant funds can be used to purchase student devices, internet hotspots, and classroom display devices for the 2024–25 school year. 

To make the most of this opportunity, it is recommended to start implementing the TLG as soon as possible. The program’s progress and news will be shared through the TLG newsletter. Congratulations on the TLG award!

Program Updates

The TLG awards have been extended until June 30 (previously April 30) to give LEAs more time to use their funds. This means there are two more months in the grant cycle to purchase devices or internet access. The extension benefits the students by providing them with more time to access digital content for the rest of the school year.
