Since rural LEAs typically lack the financial resources available to larger districts, the Rural Education Achievement Program (REAP) supplements other Federal funds, giving you additional dollars with which to purchase services to accelerate learning for your students and educators.

There are two programs authorized under REAP: the Small, Rural School Achievement (SRSA) program and the Rural and Low-Income School (RLIS) program. SRSA program grantees must be small and rural. The RLIS program provides grant funds to rural LEAs that serve concentrations of children from low-income families.
