Education Funding Series Part 2: Understanding ESSA and Other Funding Options
The Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) is a hot topic. ESSA is intended to ensure that all students receive a high-quality education that prepares them for long-term success, and includes a repeal of the Adequate Yearly Progress report in favor of state accountability. With every state having their own plan for ESSA, it is hard to know how to get started. We’re here to help! In this podcast, you will learn how to find out the accountability requirements of your state, how to obtain funding for your school or district, and much more.
Additional topics include:
- How ESSER funding relates to COVID-Relief bills (CARES ACT, CARES Supplemental ACT, and the American Rescue Plan)
- The part Title 1 plays in ESSA
- Ways schools can use funds to address issues brought on by the pandemic
- Additional funding options
- Where to go if you have questions
