Grants supported by this initiative
Connect Aspirations to a Plan Grant
Connect Aspirations to a Plan grants were awarded to Maine high schools and career and technical education centers to increase students' aspirations for higher education and help students connect those aspirations to a plan that successfully facilitates enrollment in college immediately following high school graduation.
Partnership Grant
First awarded in 2012, the Partnership Grant funded collaborations between Connect Aspirations to a Plan high schools and elementary schools, middle schools, CTEs, or colleges. Applicants for the grant were required to develop joint college access initiatives that would extend the reach of Connect Aspirations to a Plan grants to grades 6-8 or beyond high school.
