From the meeting
At the August 13, 2026 meeting, EOEL said it was tracking the next Preschool Development Grant opportunity, the SMART grant (Strategic Measurement, Analytics and Results Using Technology). Staff expected a fall funding announcement and had already begun convening partners to discuss potential proposals. This is a live grant pursuit with no award yet, so the main sales value is proposal support, planning, and implementation readiness once the notice is released.
