‘Once-in-a-generation opportunity’: Covid relief brings half-billion to Vermont schools By Lola Duffort/VTDigger At the start of the pandemic, state and education officials worried that Covid-19 would be a financial catastrophe for the pre-K-12 system. Instead, the opposite happened. With three major federal relief packages approved by Congress since the start of the pandemic, schools in Vermont and the Agency of Education have been allocated a combined $566 million, according to figures provided by the agency. More than $100 million has already been spent or budgeted on reopening schools, when districts retrofitted buildings to space out students, plowed money into long-deferred HVAC upgrades and bought sanitizer by the barrel.
