Full Text of Announcement 

I. Funding Opportunity Description 

Purpose of Program: The purpose of 

the MEP Consortium Incentive Grants 

program is to provide incentive grants to 

State educational agencies (SEAs) that 

participate in consortia with another 

SEA or other appropriate entity to 

improve the delivery of services to 

migrant children whose education is 

interrupted. Through this program, the 

Department provides financial 

incentives to SEAs to participate in 

consortia that provide high-quality 

project designs and services to improve 

the intrastate and interstate 

coordination of migrant education 

programs by addressing key needs of 

migratory children who have their 

education interrupted. 

Priorities: These priorities are from 

the notice of final requirements for this 

program, published in the Federal 

Register on March 3, 2004 (69 FR 

10110) and from the notice of final 

priority, published in the Federal 

Register on March 12, 2008 (73 FR 

13217). 

Absolute Priorities: For FY 2010, these 

priorities are absolute priorities. Under 

34 CFR 75.105(c)(3), we consider only 

applications that meet one or more of 

these priorities. In order for an SEA to 

be considered for an incentive grant, an 

application from a proposed consortium 

in which an SEA would participate 

must address one or more of the 

following absolute priorities: 

1. Services designed to improve the 

proper and timely identification and 

recruitment of eligible migratory 

children whose education is 

interrupted; 

2. Services designed (based on a 

review of scientifically based research) 

to improve the school readiness of preschool-aged migratory children whose 

education is interrupted; 

3. Services designed (based on a 

review of scientifically based research) 

to improve the reading proficiency of 

migratory children whose education is 

interrupted; 

4. Services designed (based on a 

review of scientifically based research) 

to improve the mathematics proficiency 

of migratory children whose education 

is interrupted; 

5. Services designed (based on a 

review of scientifically based research) 

to decrease the dropout rate of migratory 

students whose education is interrupted 

and improve their high school 

completion rate; 

6. Services designed (based on a 

review of scientifically based research) 

to strengthen the involvement of 

migratory parents in the education of 

migratory students whose education is 

interrupted; 

7. Services designed (based on a 

review of scientifically based research) 

to expand access to innovative 

educational technologies intended to 

increase the academic achievement of 

migratory students whose education is 

interrupted; and 

8. Services designed (based on review 

of scientifically based research) to 

improve the educational attainment of 

out-of-school migratory youth whose 

education is interrupted.
