  • CSI
  • GMART
  • Federal Grant Reporting
Date(s)February 1–28, 2027
Applies toLEAs holding FY 2025 ESSA CSI LEA subgrant funds

In Plain Language: Report actual period expenditures in GMART, complete the GMR 3 midyear reflection, reconcile the cumulative grant position, and certify by February 28.

Why this matters

Quarterly reporting should reveal whether spending and improvement work are aligned—not merely whether invoices posted. The reflection connects fiscal pace to implementation and student outcomes.

Primary ownership

Primary owner: CSI program lead with federal-programs fiscal lead. Partners: identified schools, business office, improvement/LCAP staff, superintendent designee, and GMART contacts.

Operational workflow

  1. 1. Confirm GMART access, FY 2025 award, approved plan/budget, and GMR 3 period.
  2. 2. Reconcile ledger transactions to allowable activities, school implementation, obligations, corrections, and prior GMR totals.
  3. 3. Complete the midyear reflection with program owners using evidence—not generic narrative.
  4. 4. Review expenditures, budget balance, plan changes, and narratives jointly.
  5. 5. Submit by February 28 and retain the final report and confirmation.
