Triad CUSD #2 is launching a stakeholder engagement process to help determine how it should potentially spend additional federal dollars to address unfinished learning and COVID-19 recovery. It is a requirement that Triad engages in consultation with its community stakeholders and provides the public an opportunity to provide input in the development of the ESSER III Grant.
The American Rescue Plan was signed into law in March 2021 by President Joe Biden included $122 billion in Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief (ESSER) funds for school districts across the country, which is the single largest investment in federal elementary and secondary education in the nation's history. Triad CUSD #2 is slated by ISBE to receive some of that additional funding.
All parents, district employees, students, and community members are urged to complete a survey to help the district determine what to prioritize with the potential ESSER funds. School districts are limited to what they can use ESSER funds to support.
Input from respondents is requested to be completed by 12 PM, August 25, 2021.
