U.S. Department of Education ESSA Guidance

Over the last several years, the U.S. Department of Education has been encouraging the coordinated use of federal funds by school districts.  Such guidance encourages school districts to explore student needs and then consider how different funding sources could be used alone or in a coordinated way to address those needs. For complete information on how different federal funds received under ESSA may be used, consult the law.
