Federal Funding

Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief (ESSER) Fund

The CARES (Coronavirus Aid Relief and Economic Security) Act provides federal stimulus dollars to assist local school districts during the COVID-19 pandemic. These dollars are a part of the Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief (ESSER) Fund.

How eSpark aligns to ESSER funding:

eSpark's adaptive, differentiated curriculum is proven to close learning gaps and can be used during school, in after school programs, and during the summer to prevent additional learning loss.

Student progress and standards mastery reports help teachers identify learning gaps, and weekly small group suggestions provide relevant resources for targeted intervention with struggling students.

eSpark integrates Social Emotional Learning (SEL) to allow students to express how they are feeling and give teachers important insights into their students' wellbeing.

Local Funding

Many schools apply for private or foundation funds to cover the cost of our products. These funds are often offered by local and regional foundations in your area. To identify promising opportunities, try researching organizations that support K-12 education near you.

Additionally, explore your local district’s bond money or outstanding proposals to see if it might be fit for purchasing our products. Many of our partners have funded a portion of eSpark with bond dollars granted to the district.
