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.
