Congress passed more than $190 billion in aid for schools in 2020 and 2021, called the Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief Fund, or ESSER for short.“I think six times as large as the federal funding has typically been, so it’s a large influx of funds for these schools, which the schools have used very creatively to build programs.
During the 2015-16 school year, 84.2% of school-aged children were enrolled in traditional public schools. During the 2022-23 year, that number was down to 80%. “We are already struggling with keeping teachers in their roles. Now, we’re going to have a reduction in funding which is going to exacerbate the lack of teacher availability. It's going to make more burden for the teachers that are remaining in the schools,” Rosanbalm said.A school district in Arlington, Texas announced plans to cut more than 250 positions at the end of the school year.
Earlier this year, a school district in Missoula, Montana announced budget cuts that could also lead to the elimination of teacher jobs. In an email to Scripps News, National Education Association President Becky Pringle said, “As the federal funds expire, parents and educators across the country are very concerned about the threat of educator layoffs and the impact they will have on students, especially in lower-income areas.”“I know that schools right now are making the tough decisions for how they will have to proceed assuming there is no funding,” she added.
