Congress set aside approximately $13.2 billion of the $30.75 billion allotted to the Education Stabilization Fund through the Coronavirus Aid Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act for the Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief Fund (ESSER Fund). Signed into law on March 27, 2020, the Department awarded these grants ­to State educational agencies (SEAs) for the purpose of providing local educational agencies (LEAs), including charter schools that are LEAs, with emergency relief funds to address the impact that COVID-19 has had, and continues to have, on elementary and secondary schools across the Nation.

• In-Person Learning & Continuity of Services Plan

During the period of the ARP ESSER award (until September 2024), we will review and revise our plan for in-person instruction and continuity of services as needed, but at least once every six month. We will continue to seek and consider public input during the review process. Please click here to provide feedback on our plan.

The Stanley School District will be receiving funds from the federal government to aid in our response to COVID. We have been allocated $427,772 in ESSER II Funds and $960,716 in ESSER III Funds. As we look to how we will use these funds, please click here to complete a survey to share your thoughts. For more information on allowable uses of ESSER Funds please read this document.
