<p class="MsoPlainText">Hi all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">I hope this Monday morning is treating you well. First, the good news: The eRate Funding Year (FY) 2015 application filing window has been extended for THREE additional weeks. The application filing window for Form 471 will now close
on April 16, 2015<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Also a message from Lorrie Germann, the state eRate Coordinator: “I would like to make you aware that I will be out of the office March 27th - April 3rd. The FY2015 Form 471 filing deadline was originally scheduled for March 26th. Based
on that date, I made travel arrangements to visit my younger son, who is in the Navy, and scheduled to deploy to parts unknown in mid-April. USAC has extended the Form 471 deadline to April 16th. I will be available this week to assist you in the E-Rate process,
and will then return to the office on April 6th.”<o:p></o:p></p>
