Summary : SkyView Academy is applying for the CDE Education Workforce
Grant. If granted approval through CDE’s internal grant approval
review process, the school will engage in the activities as outlined in
their application to CDE. This program exists to provide funding that
supports securing a strong, talented education workforce that can
ensure safe in-person learning, address learning loss, complete
unfinished learning, and meet the COVID-related needs of Colorado
students. Through the assistance funded under this program,
districts/eligible charters will be able to ensure ongoing and high-
quality learning continues for all students. The maximum amount of
funding request is capped at $100,000. SkyView has applied and
are awaiting review by CDE to see if they are granted the funds.
Funds are currently available for the 2022-2023 school year. Grant
scoring will utilize a prioritization process for districts and schools
that have demonstrated workforce shortages. Submission to CDE
was through an abbreviated online application process.
Rationale for Request:
For the CDE Education Workforce Grant, Board knowledge of the
grant application request by charters is required as part of the
submission of the application and acceptance of grant funds by the
District, as the fiscal agent for the grant. CDE will be scoring,
approving, and awarding the grant application and funds. If the grant
is awarded CDE has an extensive evaluation process in place for the
use of the grant funds and related activities.

Grant Request is for $94,773 for 22-23.
