Purpose of Program:
The major purposes of the CSP are to expand opportunities for all students,particularly traditionally underserved students, to attend charter schools [1] and meet challenging State academic standards; provide financial assistance for the planning, program design, and initial implementation of public charter schools; increase the number of high-quality charter schools available to students across the United States; evaluate the impact of charter schools on student achievement, families, and communities; share best practices between charter schools and other public schools; encourage States to provide facilities support to charter schools; and support efforts to strengthen the charter school authorizing process.

Through CSP Grants to Charter School Developers for the Opening of New Charter Schools and for the Replication and Expansion of High-Quality Charter Schools (CFDA numbers 8 4. 282B and 8 4. 282E, respectively) (also referred to as Developer Grants), the Department provides funds to charter school developers on a competitive basis to enable them to open new charter schools (CFDA number 8 4. 282B) or replicate or expand high-quality charter schools(CFDA number 8 4. 282E).

Eligibility for a grant under this competition is limited to charter school developers in States that do not currently have a CSP State Entity grant (CFDA number 8 4. 282A) under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 (ESEA), as amended by the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA).

[2] Eligibility in a State with a CSP State Educational Agency (SEA) grant under the ESEA, as amended by the No Child LeftBehind Act of 2001 (NCLB) (CFDA number 8 4. 282A), is limited to charter school developers applying for grants for the replication and expansion of high-quality charter schools (CFDA number 8 4. 282E) and only if the Department has not approved an amendment to the SEA’s approved grant application authorizing the SEA to make subgrants for replication and expansion.

Charter schools that receive financial assistance through Developer Grants provide programs of elementary or secondary education, or both, and may also serve students in early childhood education programs or postsecondary students.
