An exciting opportunity is available to high need literacy educational agencies for the 2009 - 2011 school year. Approximately $4.7 million is available to successful grantees to improve student achievement through the use of technology in elementary and secondary schools.

The overall purpose of this RFP is supported by the following from Title II Part D – Enhancing Education through technology:
- To promote initiatives that provide school teachers, principals, and administrators with the capacity to integrate technology effectively into curricula and instruction that are aligned with challenging state academic content and student academic achievement standards, through such means as high-quality professional development programs.
- To enhance the ongoing professional development of teachers, principals and administrators by providing constant access to training and updated research in teaching and learning through electronic means.
