Financial assistance range
The amount of financial assistance can range from approximately $6 million to $25 million depending on the size of the school, both grade level and student enrollment, the program requirements, and the location. For the higher amounts, funding may be incremental over 2, 3, or even 5 years. Because of the limited number of schools that have received funding in the last few years and the increasing costs for construction, there is no way to determine a true representative "average" of financial assistance. Facilities Improvement and Repair: The amount of financial assistance can range significantly from a few thousand dollars to approximately $7 million. There are several categories of projects that are included under Facilities Improvement and Repair, such as, Emergency, Roofing, Replacement/Repair, and Portable Classrooms. The average amount of financial assistance can vary depending on the category. An average amount is not calculable.
