The Automatic Enrollment in Advanced Courses Grant permits a wide use of funds to support student success in accelerated courses. While the statutory language may be referred to on page 4 of the RFA, the below items and activities are real examples of approved use of funds from previous applications. This is not an exhaustive list of allowable uses of funds but is intended to help interested applicants generate ideas for how this grant may benefit their students.

Add/Develop Courses

AP courses
CTE-focused IB courses
Create Jr. High Honors courses
Pay steering committee to develop acceleration policies

Teacher Pay

Hold student study sessions
Teach new sections
Training/professional development, in house or external
- Food for staff not allowable
Create differentiated curriculum (as opposed to adding sections)

Student Costs

AP/IB exam fees
- Make sure your school does not already participate in the AP/IB Exam Fee program; this is "double dipping"
Course materials/equipment
Tuition

Course-related field trips
