Public Notice for LEAPS 

In accordance with instructions set by the Tennessee Department of Education Office of Extended Learning, this letter is to serve as formal notice that the Grundy County Department of
Education intends to enter into the 2021 grant competition for Lottery for Education After School Programs (LEAPS).

The primary goal of the LEAPS program is to provide students with academic enrichment opportunities and support services to help them meet state and local standards in the core
content areas.

The District offers extended learning programs before and after school designed to support student academic achievement, foster positive social and emotional development, develop
habits for healthy living, and engage student interests. Parents and students are invited to participate in family engagement opportunities aligned with literacy, STEAM, and social and
emotional learning.

Partnerships are critical to the program and for this reason partnerships have been developed between South Cumberland State Parks, Sewanee: The University of the South, 4-H, Grundy
County Historical Society, and more.

Waiver requests (if any) are available for public review after the application is submitted.  Community feedback is welcomed.
