(d)  The department may request additional information prior to awarding a grant under this section to ascertain programs comply with the requirements of this section.  Upon completion of the summer school program, each recipient district shall report to the department any statistical, expenditure and program evaluation information as may be required by the department prior to receiving grant amounts computed under this section.

 

(e)  As soon as reasonably possible following the effective date of this act, the department of education shall notify school districts of the availability of assistance under the summer school grant program established under this section and of the requirements imposed upon districts to obtain a grant award.
