Availability of Prekindergarten Expansion Grant ListServ
TEA is pleased to announce the installation of the TEA Prekindergarten ListServ. This ListServ is primarily for recipients of the Cycle 11 Prekindergarten Expansion Grant. Recipients are encouraged to sign onto the Prekindergarten ListServ as it will serve as a method of communicating current and important information on programmatic and funding matters related to the grant. Information will include: training opportunities on integration plans to be incorporated in Cycle 12, information regarding the Cycle 11 reconciliation and refund process, TEA's online Expenditure Reporting (ER) system, final expenditure report (FER), and program compliance report due dates.

The information will benefit grantees during this process of creating integration plans to coordinate resources. To sign up for the ListServ email listserv@list.tetn.net. Include the text below in the BODY of the email (not in the subject line), replacing Jane Doe with an appropriate first and last name. A confirmation email will be sent.

A TEA funding information sheet was mailed with the Prekindergarten Expansion Grant ListServ announcement on March 21, 2006. This funding information sheet provides notices on the Cycle 11 fiscal timeline, draw downs from the Expenditure Reporting (ER) system, and the loss of any remaining Cycle 11 funds that are not drawn down (there is no rolling forward of Cycle 11 funds into the Cycle 12 school year). If you have not received this letter, contact Karyn Gukeisen, Lori Leija, or Sandy Senn in the Division of Formula Funding, TEA at 512-463-8525.
