Quality Schools Emergency Grants

The Department has $100,000 available for the 2013 Biennium to be used for emergency grants to public school districts. Emergency is statutorily defined as the imminent threat or actual occurrence of an event causing immediate peril to life, property, or the environment that can be averted or minimized with timely action. These grants are awarded directly through the Department. The Department will report to the Governor and Legislature regarding each Emergency Grant awarded during the previous biennium.
To request a Quality Schools Emergency Grant, a public school district should contact the Quality Schools Grant Program Team at 406-841-2770. A staff member will assist the school district and fill out the emergency grant review form. Please contact us if your school has an emergency facility need.
