In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Congress passed three bills that provided immediate and direct economic assistance to school districts. These funds were provided to support both academic and non-academic components for school. The intent of the funds was to support districts’ efforts to safely reopen schools, address significant gaps in learning, and support measures of implementation that will continue to reduce the effects of COVID-19 on students and families.
