COVID Relief Funding

Since the pandemic began in March 2020, District 47 has been awarded a total of $7,428,193 in federal Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief (ESSER) funds distributed in three phases. ESSER funds are intended to address the impact that COVID-19 has had, and continues to have, on elementary and secondary schools across the nation. ESSER funds have enabled the district to prioritize health and safety in its facilities and enhance educational programming for students.

  • Phase 1 is referred to as the Coronavirus Aid Relief and Economic Security (CARES) act. In this initial phase, the district received $515,170 that was used to fund additional 1:1 technology devices for students. These funds were critical in providing continuity of instruction as classrooms moved from school buildings to a remote setting.
  • Phase 2, referred to as ESSER 2, granted the district $2,130,511. These funds are being used to improve and enhance air filtration systems in classrooms and offices and HVAC systems in several buildings. Initial estimates from a 2018 assessment study totalled $15.7 million for five schools. The grant request for these funds was completed in the spring of 2021 and planning for these projects is currently underway.
  • Phase 3, referred to as ESSER 3/ARP (American Rescue Plan), has estimated that District 47 will receive $4,782,512. The application to request these funds will be available in July. This phase requires that school districts allocate 20 percent of the funds for activities that address learning loss and include responding to the social-emotional needs of students. In this phase, District 47 plans to direct funds to support Reading Recovery, social-emotional and equity learning, and other curriculum areas. ESSER 3 funds will also be used to continue HVAC projects mentioned in Phase 2.

  1. Schools are being bribed and threatened by the government to keep your children in face diapers,
    this is nothing less than state sponsored child abuse.

    When will parents stand up for their children’s rights and against the almighty oppressive state ?

    How much more will it take ?

  2. Well I guess this school business does not need our TAX DOLLARS ! now does it… REBATES COMING?

  3. And now you know why the criminality keeps going. For that much money wouldn’t YOU sell your children?

  4. The Teacher’s Union is the Enemy Within!

    It was the Union that worked with the CDC, remember?

    Covid is a Racketeering Virus . . . follow the money.

  5. School administrators are whores for govt grants.

    Happy to abuse children to get that money.

    It’s only going to stop when people band together and withhold their taxes that go to pay for the schools (which is about 65% of their Real Estate tax bill in McHenry County.)

  6. how can this be legal ??? a STATE INSTUTION SUCKING OFF FED BUISNESS BAILOUT ?

  7. **how can this be legal ???**

    What exactly is your question? What exactly would be illegal?

  8. Just SMH. What happened to the flu again? Oh that’s right, there’s not 7.5m to fleece under the guise of safety on that topic. Remember Fauci and the unelected CDC are the new leaders of the not so free world.

  9. This is war. Prepare for it little Alabamy. -with a banjo on your knee.

  10. STATE INSTUITUION VS. SMALL BUSINESS WHICH IS WHAT THIS WAS HANDED OUT FOR!?

    Start watching around the 48 min mark or before.

    This is AFTER board president Jason Blake steps down – and is clearly distressed.

    VP Guss steps in and immediately plays a little tyrant regarding masks.

    He forces a 15 MINUTE break because some members of the crowd aren’t “complying with the Governor’s 85th executive order” by wearing a face covering, which they barely manage to do during public comments anyway.

    Hey, Mr Guss – If you think Mr. Blake had a hard time, try that stunt again.

    You’ve used your only warning.

  12. I listened to the first several minutes of public testimony, and it was immediately filled with false information.

    For example, no, White House staff, CDC, Moderna, Pfizer, etc. are not exempt from the vaccine mandate.

    And Congress/judicial branch are not “exempt” only in that the POTUS cannot legally mandate other branches of Government to do anything.

    That’s due to the separation of powers, that I assume y’all support?

    But Jack Marine – what exactly are you threatening that you will do to Mr. Blake and Mr. Guss if they continue to enforce a mask mandate in public meetings?

  13. We are in a full-scale war and nitwits like Alabama fail to see it thus picking the WRONG side. You are DANGEROUS! Get out of the way!

  14. Thanks for the shout-out Cindy – I always know that I’m on the correct side when you’re on the opposite side.

  15. SO BASICALLY THEY ARE USING OUR KIDS TO EXTORT MONEY SO THEY CAN POCKET IT.

    SO BY MASKING AND VACCINATING OUR KIDS THE SCHOOLS GET BIG MONEY AS A REWARD.

    SUPER DISGUSTING AND ILLEGAL.

    aLL THESE PEOPLE NEED TO BE BEHIND BARS.

    ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING.

  16. Alabama – you fool. Nobody is threatening Mr Guss!

    I’m only suggesting that his new job may be difficult soon … until he steps down.

    Mr Blake cracked under the pressure.

    Guss who’s next? 😂
