Welcome to the Grants Department website. The Grants Department serves as a communication link within the district and among collective agencies/organizations working on grant proposals. Our goal is to work with campus/department/district level applicants identifying funding sources and aiding with proposal development. In order to make this a smooth process, we all must adhere to some basic guidelines. The Aldine ISD guidelines are as follow:

• Identify a need that aligns with district goals and/or specific campus improvement plan
• Develop an idea or program plan to meet that
• Identify a possible funding source

Determine whether or not you meet all requirements for eligibility as specified in the application. Aldine ISD does not have 501(c)3 nonprofit status and is not eligible to apply for grants requiring a 501(c)3 letter. However, if there is a funding opportunity that could support your project we can, in certain circumstances, partner with the Aldine Education Foundation to submit your application.

Map out a plan for your project, utilizing the Aldine Logic Model Tool.

Step One:

To request to approval to submit your proposal log onto http://grants.aldineisd.org

• Use your Aldine ISD email username and password to log in
• Create your profile
• Begin your submission by completing the on-line form and uploading your application, budget, and/or support documents per the grant application
• Your request should be submitted at least 20 days before the funder

Step Two:

• The request will be submitted to the Grants Department for eligibility
• The request will be approved and forwarded to your campus/department administrator to review/approve.
• The Grants Department will review/approve your
• The Authorizing Official will review and approve or deny Department/District level application

Step Three:

Submit your grant application to the funder. Some applications require the Grants Department to submit your application.

If your grant application is awarded or declined, please enter the funding outcome in [email protected]

The check and letter /email of award need to be scanned and emailed to [email protected] with a Grant-Donation Set Up Form.

The Grants Department staff are here to support you in the application and management of grants that support supplemental programs that align with District objectives to provide an unparalleled educational experience.

Happy Grantseeking!
