The Office of Safe and Drug-Free Schools (OSDFS) has awarded PEP grants to three Kentucky school districts:
Bell County Schools - $252,236
Harlan County Schools - $465.038
Mercer County Schools - $305,483
PEP grants support the initiation, expansion, and improvement of physical education programs (which may include after-school programs) in order to make progress toward meeting State standards for physical education for kindergarten through 12th grade students by (1) providing equipment and support to enable students to participate actively in physical education activities; and (2) providing funds for staff and teacher training and education.
