Good Afternoon All. As many of you are aware, the government released additional funding, ESSER III, for school districts to mitigate learning loss and ensure students are able to continue in-person learning safely. Additionally, we posted a survey to the district website and social media platform to ascertain public perceptions and interests as it relates to fund expenditures. On Monday, May 24, 2021 at 6:00 p.m. we will have a public to discuss the results of the survey and plans for expending federal funds as provided by the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) and ESSER III. Thanks for your assistance in helping us to ensure that we are able to continue in-person learning in a safe environment and that students progress socially, emotionally, and academically.
Let’s Go!!!!!
