Governor Evers has announced that he is making $46.6 million in federal CARES Act funding available for K-12 schools. According to the Governor, 155 local education agencies are eligible to apply for these funds.
“It’s vital to ensure the schools across Wisconsin that are most significantly impacted by COVID-19 have the additional resources they need as they make decisions about how students will learn in the upcoming school year and beyond,” said Governor Evers.
Funding is meant for schools most impacted by COVID-19. Eligibility criteria includes:
- Economic disadvantage;
- Access to personal computing devices;
- Access to internet; and
- Students’ score on the English Language Arts Assessment.
DPI will release more information on how schools can apply soon.
