2022-2023 School Year Plan for American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) Funds

The American Rescue Plan Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief (ARP ESSER) Fund under
the American Rescue Plan (ARP) Act of 2021, Public Law 117-2, was enacted on March 11, 2021. ARP
ESSER provides a total of nearly $122 billion to States and school districts to help safely reopen and
sustain the safe operation of schools and address the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on the
nation’s students.
All LEAs must reserve at least 20 percent of funds to address learning loss through the implementation of
evidence-based interventions and ensure that those interventions respond to students’ social,
emotional, and academic needs and address the disproportionate impact of COVID-19 on
underrepresented student subgroups. The remaining LEA funds may be used for a wide range of
activities to address needs arising from the coronavirus pandemic.
