Letter Removing Conditions on New Hampshire's ARP ESSER Grant (U.S. Department of Education, September 13, 2022)

Summary

Frank Edelblut of the New Hampshire Department of Education receives a letter from James F. Lane, Ed. D, Senior Advisor in the Office of the Secretary of Education, dated September 13, 2022, ending the conditions placed on the state's ARP ESSER grant with the August 5, 2021 approval of its plan. Those conditions had required a description of the evidence-based interventions to be funded under section 2001(f) of the ARP Act. New Hampshire's updated plan of August 8, 2022 provides it, including how the interventions address the disproportionate impact of COVID-19 on certain student groups, and the Department will post the letter and plan.

                                       THE SECRETARY OF EDUCATION
                                            WASHINGTON, DC 20202




                                          September 13, 2022


The Honorable Frank Edelblut
New Hampshire Department of Education
101 Pleasant Street
Concord, NH 03301

Dear Commissioner Edelblut:

In the letter approving New Hampshire’s American Rescue Plan Elementary and Secondary
School Emergency Relief (ARP ESSER) State plan, dated August 5, 2021, the U.S. Department
of Education (Department) placed conditions on New Hampshire’s ARP ESSER grant.
Specifically, the conditions required that New Hampshire 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) of the ARP Act.

On August 8, 2022, New Hampshire submitted an updated ARP ESSER State plan that
responded to these 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 (4) how the
interventions identified will address the disproportionate impact of COVID-19 on certain student
groups.

As a result, I am removing the conditions from New Hampshire’s ARP ESSER grant. This letter
and the updated State plan will be posted on the Department’s State Plans website, here.

Thank you for your efforts 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 New
Hampshire. If you have any questions, please contact your program officer at:
NewHampshire.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 Educatio
