PROGRAM BACKGROUND INFORMATION

Purpose

Under the Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief Fund (ESSER Fund), the Department awards grants to State educational agencies (SEAs) for the purpose of providing local educational agencies (LEAs), including charter schools that are LEAs, with emergency relief funds to address the impact that Novel Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) has had, and continues to have, on elementary and secondary schools across the nation. LEAs must provide equitable services to students and teachers in non-public schools as required under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act).

Eligibility

SEAs in any of the 50 States, the District of Columbia, and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico.

Timeline

The SEA will have one year, from the date of its ESSER award, to award funds. Any funds not awarded by the SEA within one year of receiving its award will be returned to the Department to be reallocated to other States consistent with the CARES Act.

Uses of Funds

SEAs:

The SEA must use no less than 90 percent of its allocation to make subgrants to LEAs, including charter schools that are LEAs, based on each LEA’s share of funds received under part A of title I of the ESEA in fiscal year 2019. With the funds not subgranted to LEAs, the SEA may reserve up to an amount equal to ½ of 1 percent of the total allocation for administrative costs, and the remaining funds may be used for emergency needs as determined by the SEA to address issues responding to COVID-19. These emergency needs may be addressed through the use of grants or contracts.

Part B: ProgramMatic, FISCAL, and reporting assurances

The [Chief State School Officer or his/her authorized representative] assures the following:

1. The SEA will allocate no less than 90 percent of the grant funds under this program to local educational agencies (LEAs) (including charter schools that are LEAs) in the State. Under the ESSER Fund, we will award grants by formula to State educational agencies (SEAs) for the purpose of providing LEAs, including charter schools that are LEAs, with emergency relief funds to address the impact that the Novel Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) has had, and continues to have, on elementary and secondary schools across the Nation. This includes both continuing to provide educational services, such as remote learning, while schools and campuses are closed, and developing and implementing plans for the return to normal operations. The SEA will allocate these funds to LEAs on the basis of their respective shares of funds received under title I, part A of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 in fiscal year 2019.

2. The SEA will use the remaining funds (hereafter SEA reserve) for emergency needs as determined by the SEA to address issues related to COVID-19, which may be addressed through the use of grants or contracts. From an SEA’s reserve, the SEA may use not more than 1/2 of 1 percent of the SEA’s total grant for administrative costs.

3. The SEA will ensure that LEAs use ESSER funds for activities allowable under section 18003(d) of Division B of the CARES Act. (See Appendix A.) The Department generally does not consider the following to be an allowable use of ESSER funds, under any part of 18003: 1) subsidizing or offsetting executive salaries and benefits of individuals who are not employees of the SEA or LEAs or 2) expenditures related to state or local teacher or faculty unions or associations.

4. The SEA will ensure that LEAs receiving ESSER funds will provide equitable services to students and teachers in non-public schools as required under 18005 of Division B of the CARES Act.

5. The SEA will ensure that an LEA receiving ESSER funds will provide equitable services to students and teachers in non-public schools located within the LEA in the same manner as provided under section 1117 of the ESEA, as determined through timely and meaningful consultation with representatives of non-public schools.

• The SEA will ensure that a public agency will maintain control of funds for the services and assistance provided to a non-public school under the ESSER Fund.

• The SEA will ensure that a public agency will have title to materials, equipment, and property purchased with ESSER funds.

• The SEA will ensure that services to a non-public school with ESSER funds will be provided by a public agency directly, or through contract with, another public or private entity.

6. The SEA will comply with the maintenance of effort provision in Section 18008(a) of Division B of the CARES Act absent waiver by the Secretary pursuant to Section 18008(b) thereof.
   
   

7. The SEA and each LEA and any other entity that receives ESSER funds will, to the greatest extent practicable, continue to compensate its employees and contractors during the period of any disruptions or closures related to COVID-19 in compliance with Section 18006 of Division B of the CARES Act. In addition, each entity that accepts funds will continue to pay employees and contractors to the greatest extent practicable based on the unique financial circumstances of the entity. CARES Act funds generally will not be used for bonuses, merit pay, or similar expenditures, unless related to disruptions or closures resulting from COVID-19.

8. The SEA must assure that, when applicable, it will provide technical assistance to LEAs on the use of ESSER funds for remote learning, which includes both distance education as defined in section 103(7) of the HEA and distance learning as defined in ESEA section 8101(14), so that students can continue learning during school closures.

9. The SEA will comply with all reporting requirements, including those in Section 15011(b)(2) of Division B of the CARES Act, and submit required quarterly reports to the Secretary at such time and in such manner and containing such information as the Secretary may subsequently require. (See also 2 CFR 200.327-200.329). The Secretary may require additional reporting in the future, which may include: the methodology LEAs will use to provide services or assistance to students and staff in both public and non-public schools, the uses of funds by the LEAs or other entities and demonstration of their compliance with Section 18003(d), such as any use of funds addressing the digital divide, including securing access to home-based connectivity and remote-use devices, related issues in supporting remote learning for all students, including disadvantaged populations.

10. The SEA will submit to the Department, within 60 days of receiving ESSER funds, a report that will include:

• A budget for the SEA’s reserve that includes information about the up to 1/2 of 1 percent of the SEA’s total grant for administrative costs and the uses of funds for emergency needs to address issues related to COVID-19; and

• An Internal Control and Subrecipient Monitoring Plan to ensure that funds are used for allowable purposes in accordance with cash management principles.

11. The SEA will ensure that every recipient and subrecipient of ESSER funds will cooperate with any examination of records with respect to such funds by making records available for inspection, production, and examination, and authorized individuals available for interview and examination, upon the request of (i) the Department and/or its Inspector General; or (ii) any other federal agency, commission, or department in the lawful exercise of its jurisdiction and authority.
