Career Technical Education Investment
State and school district/Local Educational Agency (LEAs) plans for using ARP ESSER funds are an important resource for public transparency into the use of ARP ESSER funds. The Department encourages all stakeholders, including parents, families, and educators, to review their State and LEA/school district plans, and to contact State and local education officials to learn more. Links to all ARP ESSER State and LEA/school district plans and approved materials are posted below.
School systems throughout the country reported using less than 15 percent of the latest round of federal education funding allotted to them during the last school year. Superintendents who didn’t even know there is more money to claim.
