Component 2 eligible applicants are limited to local education agencies (LEA) only. An LEA must demonstrate an ability to reach a minimum of 10,000 students in priority schools (high schools, or a combination of middle and high schools) with the proposed work plan in order for the application to be eligible for review. LEA with an enrollment of less than 10,000 students may combine with other geographically contiguous districts to create a consortium application. In doing so, the consortium must designate a single LEA to submit the application and, if funded, administer the program. This designated LEA will become the fiscal agent and responsible agency for all activities under this cooperative agreement. Existing regional structures such as Boards of Cooperative Educational Services (BOCES) or their equivalent may also apply.
