The purpose of this rule is to outline procedures for the Educational
Improvement Opportunities Outside of the Regular School Day Grant Program,

grants.
(3) Terms used in this rule
have the definitions given to them in Section 53F-5-210. For purposes of this

means funds from a private source that have not been earmarked or pledged as a
match for any other purpose. "Private matching funds" specifically excludes the
