Multiplex Transition Grants
Three multiplex transition grants of up to $20,000 have been awarded. This grant is for large high schools transitioning into a facility that houses multiple small schools. Each school is autonomous with regard to decision-making, faculty, and budgets, but all share common principle for building-wide decision-making. The grant may be used for such activities as bringing in a change management consultant, helping fund an interim transition principal, or touring model small schools.
