Broad Eligibility

Schools identified by the Oklahoma State Department of Education as Alternative Education school sites are eligible. Supported projects include in-school classes and residencies that provide six or more hours of hands-on arts engagement per participating student.

Atlas Analysis

A targeted school-funding opportunity for higher-need alternative-education settings, with repeat annual award capacity and a low match requirement. It has indirect student-wellness value but no defensible direct N9+ technology procurement path under the stated allowable-cost structure, so direct-vendor fit is low.
