CCS Grant Information

  • Getting Started

    All grants must go through the Columbus City Schools Grants Endorsement Process prior to applying.  

    If there is an external or competitive grant you are interested in applying for, you must first seek permission from the district to apply for the grant on behalf of Columbus City Schools.  You can do so following the grant endorsement process outlined below

    Grant Endorsement Process

    Columbus City Schools is driving transformational change in the district.  To minimize paper consumption and be more environmentally conscious, the district has transitioned the Columbus City Schools Grant Endorsement (CGSE) process to an online application.  The online process is now available through the CCSDAS and will replace the paper submissions forms.  Everyone who has a CCS login and password will have access to CCSDAS.  The link can be accessed here:  CCSDAS The CCSGE is located under the General Request menu. If this is your first time logging into the CCSDAS, your account has already been created, and no special permissions are needed to access the new online CCSGE form/process.  

    Individuals who are completing a request for endorsement will need to review the online instructions through PublicSchoolWorks.   Prior to using the new online CCSGE, first access the training module found in PublicSchoolWorks to learn how to use the online CCSGE.
