PROGRAM BACKGROUND INFORMATION

Purpose

Under the Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2021 (CRRSA Act), Pub. L. No. 116-260 (December 27, 2020), Congress authorized the Emergency Assistance to Non-Public Schools (EANS) program as part of the Act’s Governor’s Emergency Education Relief Fund. The U.S. Department of Education (Department) will award a portion of the GEER Fund to Governors as a supplement to the CARES Act’s GEER I Fund. Those funds, which we refer to as the GEER II Fund, will appear in the Department’s grants management system (G5) without any additional paperwork. In addition, the Department will award a formula grant to each Governor with an approved EANS Certification and Agreement¹ for the purpose of providing emergency services or assistance to non-public schools in the wake of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). By accepting an EANS award from the Department, a Governor automatically designates the State educational agency (SEA) to administer the EANS program. An SEA will be the payee or fiscal agent in G5 for purposes of accessing Federal funds.

Eligibility

Governors in all 50 States and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, as well as the Mayor of the District of Columbia.

Funding

The Department will award $2,750,000,000 to Governors with an approved Certification and Agreement based on each State’s relative share of children aged 5-17 who are from a family at or below 185 percent of the poverty level and who are enrolled in non-public schools. The amount each State is eligible to receive is indicated in the allocation table in Appendix B.

Timeline

The Department intends to make an award to a Governor within one business day of receiving an approvable Certification and Agreement. An SEA, as the agency designated to administer the EANS program, must make an application available to non-public schools no later than 30 days after receipt of the funds and approve or deny an application from a non-public school no later than 30 days after receiving it. The SEA must, to the extent practicable, obligate all funds for services or assistance to non-public schools in the State in an expedited and timely manner, but not later than six months after receiving the funds. (An SEA is considered to have received EANS funds on the date the Department makes the grant award to the Governor.) An SEA that complies with its responsibilities under the EANS program but has unobligated funds remaining six months after receiving those funds must return them to the Governor for any authorized use under the GEER II Fund. Before the SEA returns EANS funds to the Governor, it should notify the Department.

Types of Services or Assistance

A non-public school receiving services or assistance under the EANS program shall use such services or assistance to address educational disruptions resulting from COVID-19 for:

1. supplies to sanitize, disinfect, and clean school facilities;

2. personal protective equipment (PPE);

3. improving ventilation systems, including windows or portable air purification systems to ensure healthy air in the non-public school;

4. training and professional development for staff on sanitation, the use of PPE, and minimizing the spread of infectious diseases;

5. physical barriers to facilitate social distancing;

6. other materials, supplies, or equipment to implement public health protocols, including guidelines and recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) for the reopening and operation of school facilities to effectively maintain the health and safety of students, educators, and other staff during the qualifying emergency;

7. expanding capacity to administer coronavirus testing to effectively monitor and suppress coronavirus, to conduct surveillance and contact tracing activities, and to support other activities related to coronavirus testing for students, teachers, and staff at the non-public school;

8. educational technology (including hardware, software, connectivity, assistive technology, and adaptive equipment) to assist students, educators, and other staff with remote or hybrid learning;

9. redeveloping instructional plans, including curriculum development, for remote learning, hybrid learning, or to address learning loss;

10. leasing of sites or spaces to ensure safe social distancing to implement public health protocols, including guidelines and recommendations from the CDC;

11. reasonable transportation costs;

12. initiating and maintaining education and support services or assistance for remote learning, hybrid learning, or to address learning loss; or

13. reimbursement for the expenses of any services or assistance described above that a non-public school incurred on or after March 13, 2020, except for services or assistance under (C) (other than portable air purification systems, which are an allowable reimbursable expense), (D), (I), and (L)) or any expenses reimbursed through a loan guaranteed under the Paycheck Protection Act (15 U.S.C. 636(a)) as of December 27, 2020.
