      Leveraging Technology to Meet Title I Priorities

      Posted by Demetrius Handelih on Mon, Feb 24, 2025
      With ESSER funding expiring, many districts stand to lose substantial one-time federal aid, putting essential programs and technology investments at risk—but there’s hope for schools in economically disadvantaged communities. Title I can help bridge that gap by funding a wide array of services and solutions that have been shown to improve learning outcomes.

      Posted by Dr. Don Gemeinhardt on Tue, Jan 11, 2022

      As we begin this new year, we need to look at the grant possibilities – those currently open but will quickly close in the coming months, and funding that will be made available throughout 2022. To do this, I’ve compiled a list of grant funding possibilities that includes the funding source and website, the purpose of the grant, areas covered by the grant, funding size, and other information.

      Relief Funding: Get Ready for That Call

      Posted by Dr. Don Gemeinhardt on Tue, Dec 14, 2021

      Last month, we talked about the status of all the COVID-19 funding and how it has progressed. The situation for many of the states in their effort to obligate funding under all the ESSER (Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief) and GEER (Governor’s Emergency Education Relief) I, II, and III are ongoing. To see the progress of funding allotments and progress by state, district, and for Higher Education, click here: U.S. Department of Education – Education Stabilization Fund. On this site, you will notice a substantial difference among states on how much allocated funding from ARPA (American Rescue Plan Act) each has. In many cases, you will see that the ARPA status in states is below 5% meaning that the application process has not started. In other states, the application phase has stopped but funding has yet to be sent out.

      Act on Relief Funding Now - EdLeader Webinar

      Posted by Boxlight on Tue, May 11, 2021

      A few headlines from a recent internet search on K-12 relief funding in schools include “What Congressional Covid Funding Means for K-12 Schools,” “States Scramble to Disburse K-12 Relief Funds Ahead of Deadline,” and “States are Waffling Over Billions in K-12 Federal Relief. Schools Are Getting Antsy.” Clearly, educators want clear-cut information on funding including how much, ways to use it, and when to expect it.

      Posted by Boxlight on Wed, Apr 21, 2021

      Since late March 2020, the federal government has approved relief funding to help states address challenges to student learning caused by the coronavirus pandemic. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act, the Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act (CRRSA), and the American Rescue Plan will provide approximately $190 billion to the Elementary and Secondary Emergency Education Relief (ESSER) fund. Of course, with the availability of funds come many questions such as - How can these funds be used? When do they need to be used by? Where should we start?
