GRANTS MANAGEMENT

Whether you're preparing budgets, completing required documentation, or verifying deadlines, this resource is designed to help you stay organized and informed throughout the 2026–2027 school year.

The beginning of a new school year brings important deadlines, required documentation, and compliance activities for federal programs. Staying organized from the start can help ensure your district or charter school remains on track throughout the year.

The inSchools State and Federal Grants Team works directly with member schools to provide the guidance and resources necessary to meet these timelines.

To make things easier, we've created an interactive Beginning of Year Activities Checklist that brings everything together in one place.

The BOY checklist includes:

  • Key federal program deadlines

  • Required documentation

  • Compliance reminders

  • Helpful TEA and Region resources

  • Quick links to important guidance

  • A searchable format that's easy to use throughout the year

Rather than scrolling through a long document, you can quickly jump to the information you need and return to it anytime during the school year.
