Fully rendered HTML; iu13.org robots.txt has no Disallow.

The HTML page carries no date; it only says "To apply for an OTDA 2026-2027 Mini-Grant" and links the application PDF (https://www.iu13.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/OTDA_Mini_Grant_Application-26-27.pdf). Deadline and amounts are PDF-only, "Application Deadline: June 20, 2026"; project period September 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027; up to $2,000 first-time, $3,000 second-time, $2,000 third-time applicants; requests over $4,000 ineligible; equipment capped at $1,500 or 40% of budget. Marked closed because the June 20, 2026 deadline has passed; the page offers a Seed Grant form for schools that missed the mini-grant deadline.
