Using ESSER and COVID-19 Relief Funding to Support ELs and Native Americans

English Learners, Native Americans, and other special populations student subgroups often have unique needs based on the characteristics that make them stand out as separate student groups. The three COVID-19 relief funding laws that were passed in 2020 and 2021 include funding to address the unique needs of these student groups. This presentation provides an outline of the needs of ELs and Native Americans (and other student groups), reviews the allowable uses of the ESSER (Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief) funding, and provides suggestions and ideas on how to use that funding to support these at-risk student subgroups.
