TEA is announcing the availability of the 2017-2018 Gun Free Schools District and Campus Reports authorized under Public Law (P.L.) 114-95, Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) of 1965, as amended by the Every Students Succeeds Act (ESSA), Title VIII, Part F, Subpart 4, Section 8561, Gun Possession. The reports are available on eGrants under the 2017-2018 ESSA Consolidated Federal Grant Application.
ESSA requires each LEA requesting funds from the state to provide student expulsion data for those who have brought or have possessed a firearm at a school.
Reports must be submitted via eGrants by June 28, 2018, for LEAs to receive a Notice of Grant Award (NOGA).
With any questions about the 2017-2018 Gun Free Schools District and Campus Reports, contact Didi Garcia at didi.garcia@tea.texas.gov.
The Texas Education Agency will improve outcomes for all public school students in the state by providing leadership, guidance, and support to school systems.
