School Operating Status & LEA Plans for a Safe Return to In-Person Instruction
As a part of the American Rescue Plan (ARP) Act, state educational agencies (SEAs) were required to provide to the Department a URL where the public can readily find data on each school’s operating status. The chart below includes the URL that each SEA provided to the Department.
The SEA was also required to provide the Department with the URL(s) for the SEA and/or local educational agency (LEA) websites where the public can find the LEA plans for the safe return to in-person instruction and continuity of services required under section 2001(i) of the ARP Act. The Department will post links to the SEA or LEA websites where these LEA plans can be found as they are submitted by States. For LEA Plans for Use of ARP ESSER Funding, please visit State Plans – Office of Elementary and Secondary Education.
