²ü¶¶Ð¡ÃÛÌÒ

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the resulting transition to remote learning environments and the tremendous amount of work involved in shifting to this new mode of instruction, ²ü¶¶Ð¡ÃÛÌÒ submitted a request to USDOE, and USDOE approved, a request for a waiver of requirements applicable to ²ü¶¶Ð¡ÃÛÌÒ’s CSP grant that would allow ²ü¶¶Ð¡ÃÛÌÒ to set aside a portion of its CSP grant funds to award Response to COVID-19 subgrants to eligible charter school education corporations. ÌýThese subgrants will reimburse charter schools for expenses required to meet the immediate educational needs of students impacted by the COVID-19 crisis, specifically for purchasing technology hardware, software, and licenses as well as staff training on effective implementation of remote learning.ÌýÌý

As a condition of USDOE's approval of the waiver, ²ü¶¶Ð¡ÃÛÌÒ must make available quarterly performance reports:
