MSBA Grant Program Information:
The MSBA's grant program is a non-entitlement, competitive program, and grants are distributed by the MSBA Board of Directors based on need and urgency, as expressed by districts and validated by the MSBA. Submitting an SOI is not an invitation into the MSBA's Capital Pipeline; it is the initial step in the MSBA's program. Moving forward in the MSBA's process requires further collaboration between districts and the MSBA.
Submitting an SOI is the critical first step in the MSBA's program for school building construction, addition/renovation, and repair grants. The SOI allows districts to inform us about deficiencies that may exist in a local school facility and how those deficiencies inhibit the delivery of the district’s educational program.
