College Spark Mini-Grants for Higher Education/K-12 Partnerships!

Request for Proposal (RFP) Process

Informational Webinar
January 10, 2019 3-4 pm



*        What: The Bridge to College project has been extended through the 2019-20 school year, expanding now into almost 200 high schools across the state in 115 school districts.


*        So What: At the same time, the recent project evaluation report from The BERC Group indicated that a number of the Bridge to College students eligible for automatic placement were unable to use their Bridge course grade but instead were required to take a placement test.


*        Now What: To respond to those concerns, College Spark has provided us additional funding to offer a limited number of innovative mini-grants to higher education/K-12 education partnerships that, in addition to addressing issues related to the placement agreement, would address one or more of the following broad areas with a modest, targeted intervention:


o   Implement effective interventions that help more students move directly and successfully into college,

o   Improve the ongoing professional learning of Bridge to College teachers, or
o   Build/improve local school/college partnerships focused on college readiness and specifically Bridge to College courses.



*        Find Out More: Detailed information about the grant and RFP process is available on our Bridge to College page<https://www.sbctc.edu/about/agency/initiatives-projects/bridge-to-college.aspx> at the SBCTC website; the recording of this week's webinar will be posted there as well.
