Summary
A letter dated March 22, 2022 from the Secretary of Education to Commissioner Margie Vandeven of the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education. It recalls that the October 5, 2021 letter approving Missouri's American Rescue Plan ESSER State plan placed a condition on the grant requiring Missouri to describe the evidence-based interventions it would implement with the funds reserved under section 2001(f). It says Missouri submitted an updated plan describing interventions to address the academic impact of lost instructional time, summer learning and enrichment programs, and comprehensive afterschool programs. The Secretary states that the condition is removed from Missouri's ARP ESSER grant.

THE SECRETARY OF EDUCATION WASHINGTON, DC 20202 March 22, 2022 The Honorable Dr. Margie Vandeven Commissioner of Education Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education 205 Jefferson Street, PO Box 480 Jefferson City, MO 65102-0480 Dear Commissioner Vandeven: In the letter approving Missouri’s American Rescue Plan Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief (ARP ESSER) State plan, dated October 5, 2021, the U.S. Department of Education (Department) placed conditions on Missouri’s ARP ESSER grant. Specifically, the conditions required that Missouri amend its ARP ESSER State plan to describe, in section D of its State plan, the evidence-based interventions it will implement using the funds it reserves under section 2001(f) of the ARP Act. On January 28, 2021, Missouri submitted an updated ARP ESSER State plan addressing the conditions by describing the evidence-based interventions it will implement to address: (1) the academic impact of lost instructional time, (2) summer learning and enrichment programs, and (3) comprehensive afterschool programs and how the interventions it identified will address the disproportionate impact of COVID-19 on certain groups of students. As a result, I am removing the condition from Missouri’s ARP ESSER grant. This letter and the updated plan will be posted on the Department's State Plans website here. Thank you for your efforts, and the efforts of your staff, to implement the ARP ESSER program and to address the academic, social, emotional, and mental health needs of students, educators, and staff during the pandemic. We look forward to continuing our work with you to support the education of students in Missouri. If you have any questions, please contact your program officer at: Missouri. OESE@ed._.gov. Sincerely, James F. Lane, Ed. D Senior Advisor, Office of the Secretary Delegated the Authority to Perform the Functions and Duties of the Assistant Secretary Office of Elementary and Secondary Education
