Common use of Federal or Other Grants Clause in Contracts

Federal or Other Grants. The Sponsor agrees to support the School in its efforts to secure grants by timely processing and submitting all documentation prepared by the School and necessary for the Schools competition for grants and other monetary awards, including but not limited to Federal Start-up Grant and Dissemination Grant. When the funding source requires that the Sponsor serve as the fiscal agent for a grant, the School shall, prior to generating any paperwork to the funding agency, notify the Sponsor in writing of its intent to submit a grant application and attach grant application guidelines. If the Sponsor develops a district-wide grant, the School may be included in the district proposal, if mutually agreed to by the School and the Sponsor. The Sponsor shall not agree to such participation unless the School specifically agrees to all terms, conditions, and requirements of the grant. If the School fails in any material respect to comply with said terms, conditions, and requirements, the School shall be solely responsible and liable for any consequences. When a charter school elects to participate in a district-wide grant prepared by the Sponsor’s staff or when grant proposals are developed by district staff using student or School counts that include the students of the School, dollars and/or services distributed via grant funds will be provided to charter schools in the same manner as traditional public schools.
