LEAs eligible to receive an SRSA award are required to submit an SRSA 
application in order to receive SRSA funds, regardless of whether the

fails to submit an application in accordance with the application 
submission procedures will not receive an SRSA award this September.
    Applicants that did not meet the initial June 30, 2017 deadline 
must submit applications by July 28, 2017 to be considered for FY 2017 
funding.
