2021 CARES Act Information

U.S Secretary of Education announced today that more than $54 billion in emergency relief funding is now available to support fully reopening K-12 schools. This funding allocated by the Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2021 (CARES Act) was signed into law on Dec. 27, 2020.

The funding allocations are part of the $81.9 billion Congress allocated to the Education Stabilization Fund in the latest COVID relief package. It follows the $30 billion allocated by the CARES Act and likewise will be distributed to K-12 schools and higher education institutions. The Department continues to make funds available as quickly as possible, at the direction of the Secretary.

"Every student deserves access to full-time education and the opportunity to safely learn in-person if they choose. Sadly, all too many schools are still refusing to serve their students, while more than $9 billion in emergency CARES Act funds — money that's been available since April — hasn't been drawn down," said Secretary Betsy DeVos." This new relief funding must be used to deliver a quality, full-time education to every student. Public schools can and must continue instruction and safely reopen."
