The Honorable Deborah A. Frison
Deputy Commissioner
Nebraska Department of Education
500 S. 84th St., 2nd Floor
Lincoln, NE 68510
Dear Deputy Commissioner Frison:
In the October 14, 2021, letter approving Nebraska’s American Rescue Plan Elementary and
Secondary School Emergency Relief (ARP ESSER) State plan, the U.S. Department of
Education (Department) placed certain conditions on Nebraska’s grant. Specifically, the
conditions required that Nebraska amend its ARP ESSER State plan to describe, in section D, the
evidence-based interventions it will implement using the funds it reserves under section
2001(f)(1) of the ARP Act.
On January 5, 2023, Nebraska submitted an updated ARP ESSER State plan that responded to
these conditions by describing the evidence-based interventions it will implement to address the
academic impact of lost instructional time, summer learning and enrichment programs,
and comprehensive afterschool programs, and how these interventions will address the
disproportionate impact of COVID-19 on certain groups of students. As a result, I am removing
the conditions from Nebraska’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 and mental health needs of students, educators, and staff. If you
have any questions, please contact your program officer at: Nebraska.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
