Good afternoon, As you may know, the U.S. Department of Education (ED) has entered into interagency agreements with the U.S. Departments of Health and Human Services, the Interior, and Labor to break up the federal education bureaucracy, ensure efficient delivery of funded programs, and move closer to fulfilling the President’s promise to return education to the states. This note is to confirm that all existing competitive grants previously awarded by ED will continue to be managed in the G5 system, including any subsequent continuation awards for those grants.

This letter provides notice that the United States Department of Education ("Department") has determined that your federal award will continue under protest as discussed below. The Department has made this continuation redetermination after an evaluation of the factors in 34 C.ER. 75.253 and 75.118, as constrained by the December 19, 2025, judgment in State of Washington, et al. v. U.S. Department of Education, et al., Case No. 2:25-cv-01228-KKE (W.D. WA) ("WA ED"), including your timely and complete submission of updated grant information on or before January 16, 2026. This continuation redetermination extends your interim continuation budget period to a full 12-month budget period, from January 1, 2026 December 31, 2026. Please note that this continuation redetermination is being issued under protest relating to the litigation affecting this matter. Litigation is ongoing in WA ED and the Department is currently actively appealing the decision of the trial court in this case. The Department maintains its original April 2025 determination that your grant is inconsistent with, and no longer effectuates, the best interest of the federal government.

As a professional in a similar field, separate from my role as a foster parent on this case, I'm really going to encourage you to step back and reflect when challenged instead of immediately trying to solve what you see as the problem. I am done with this conversation, as clearly that reflection is not happening at this time.
