Nearly $400 million in federal COVID-19 rescue funds are expected to flow to South Jersey schools to get students back in buildings and on track academically after more than a year of learning disruptions.
Funding is part of the $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan Act signed by President Joe Biden in early March. A $112 billion chunk of the COVID-19 rescue plan is earmarked for American K-12 schools.
New Jersey s Department of Education will receive $2.765 billion to allocate to school districts.
Public school districts in Burlington, Camden, Cumberland and Gloucester counties expect to receive a combined $393 million, based on early figures supplied to congressional district offices.

Community spread may increase and be negatively impacted due to staff and student/family travel.
Anticipated staff member quarantines due to travel will likely leave the District unable to cover all classes. This will impact our availability of substitute teachers.
Although the CDC and NJDOH suggest we can operate hybrid learning during high ranges we want to reduce risks with any additional spring break exposure.
