Looking for an Award Winning PEP Grant Program?

PEP - Physical Education for Progress

The U.S. Department of Education will award grants under this competition to local educational agencies and community-based organizations to initiate, expand, or improve physical education programs, including after-school programs, for students in one or more grades from kindergarten through 12th grade in order to help students make progress toward meeting state standards for physical education.

The PEP grant provides funding for the development and implementation of physical education programs. Funds are provided for curriculum development, teacher training, student fitness assessments, data collection and evaluations. Equipment purchases are allowable when successful grant applicants propose programs that address various aspects of a comprehensive physical education program.
