The Kentucky Department of Education (KDE) is accepting applications for the FY27 Kentucky Numeracy Counts Grant, a competitive K-12 education opportunity supporting evidence-based mathematics curriculum and implementation in Kentucky public school districts.
Funding
KDE lists an award amount of $70,000 per awarded district with no matching-funds requirement.
Deadline
November 17, 2026 at 4:00 PM ET.
Purpose and allowable use
The grant supports high-quality research and evidence-based curriculum aligned to kindergarten through grade 3 mathematics standards and curriculum-based professional learning needed to implement a new curriculum. The current program structure directs funding toward instructional resources and evidence-based professional learning rather than healthcare delivery or clinical technology.
Eligible applicants
Kentucky public school districts meeting the requirements of the controlling KDE Request for Application.
Atlas assessment
This is a verified open K-12 education opportunity and is included in Atlas for complete school-funding coverage. Its direct Dr. Miltie N9+ and QC Healthcare relevance is low under the current allowable-use structure, so Atlas does not recommend N9+ applicant outreach unless the solicitation is materially amended.
