CA Prop-2 has a $600M carve-out grant funding available for its Career Training & Education Facilities Program (CTEFP) targeted for Comprehensive High Schools. There are two (2) $300M funding rounds. The first funding round finished in 2025, and with the 2nd round application deadline to be later this year, probably in November 2026, $300M is still available. But it is important to start early to best position your school district to capture this significant source of CTE facilities grant funding.

The presenters will summarize the Prop-2 CTEFB application requirements, as well as provide a case study for a DSA pre-checked, solar-powered Outdoor Education Classroom that can be fully funded in most cases using the Prop-2 CTEFB and Federal Direct Pay Energy Credits. Agriculture, Athletic, Culinary, and several other CTE program pathways may benefit as well.

If your school district has one or more Comprehensive High Schools, you surely understand the importance of attracting funding for CTE facilities infrastructure. This educational seminar combines several timely and advanced public school funding sources together with easy to understand explanation of how to capture funding, and manage cash flow, so as to benefit your District’s CTE programs.
