How Can You Use the Funds?
The Department of Education has given a large amount of freedom to states and schools to determine how EANS funds are put to use. As long as the expenses are “related to safely reopening schools, continuing instruction, and addressing learning loss”, they’ll likely be fair game. A few ideas:
- Coronavirus testing and contact tracing. Shop School Health via the CPS Marketplace
- CDC-recommended materials or supplies needed to reopen. Shop now.
- Education technology. Shop for Technology Products at Staples and B&H via the CPS Marketplace.
- Redeveloping instructional plans to address learning loss.
- Transportation costs (like leasing a bus/van or hiring an extra driver).
- Cleaning/sanitizing school facilities. Shop for Cleaning Supplies at CPS JanSan.
- Improving ventilation systems.
- Training/professional development for teachers and leaders.
- Physical barriers (like plexiglass) to facilitate social distancing. Shop now.
Please contact our dedicated customer service team to help you navigate this complex process.
