General Reminder
All Professional Development (3246) funds not spent prior to June 30th, 2023, will need to be returned to CDE promptly following your Annual Financial Report submission and reviewed by Anna Friedman, your fiscal analyst.
Annual Financial Reports (AFR) are due on or before September 29th, 2023 via the Grant Report Submission form. Your AFR requires that you fill out Tab 4- AFR Detail in your Budget Workbook. You also must submit a Detailed General Ledger of expenses dated July 1, 2022-June 30th, 2023. If you received Professional Development in FY21-22 and have not returned unspent funds, you will need to include a General Ledger of expenses dated July 1, 2021 - June 30th, 2022 with your AFR submission as well.
After your AFR has been reviewed and approved, you will receive an email from Anna Friedman confirming the approval and the amount of funds, if any, that need to be returned along with instructions on how to return those funds.
