The state's former education secretary said many districts were sidelining the ESSER funds 'out of uncertainty for what's going to happen with state and local revenues.' The Sept. 2024 looming deadline is prompting talks about how to use the unspent money.
School districts could be facing a fiscal cliff when pandemic-era federal funds start to run out and"are either going to need to develop those wings or prepare for a pretty significant fiscal crash," former Education Secretary James Peyser said Thursday.
Roza used a budget-planning spreadsheet from Spokane Public Schools to illustrate the issue that other districts around the country could be facing: The district projected expenditures to exceed revenues by $7.7 million in the current school year and by $12 million in the 2023-2024 school year. But as ESSER money expires, that gap is estimated to grow to about $62 million in 2024-2025 and to more than $114 million the school year after that.
The availability of remaining ESSER money could come into play as the new Healey administration and state lawmakers debate education funding in the state budget and how much of the revenue from the new income surtax to put towards education initiatives.
