For Last-Minute Filers – Block 4 Reminders
Block 4 Worksheets
In Block 4, you create a worksheet for each group of entities sharing a service. You then cite the appropriate worksheet on each Block 5 funding request.
Each entity receiving service must have an entity number. (See the tips for Block 1 if you need to request entity numbers.) If an entity is receiving service only for itself, you can cite that entity’s entity number as long as the entity appears on a worksheet.
-
Schools fill out one or more school worksheets ("Worksheet A").
-
Libraries fill out one or more library worksheets ("Worksheet B").
-
Consortia fill out one or more consortium worksheets ("Worksheet C") by first completing worksheets for each of their members ("Preparatory Worksheet A" for school members and/or "Preparatory Worksheet B" for library members)
You will need the following information:
-
Entity name

Entity number

NCES code (for a school) or FSCS code (for a library), if available
