Planning and funding for re-entry and recovery will be needed. Currently,the amount of <br /> funding is difficult to estimate. However, an allocation of$1,000,000 is included to prepare our schools for <br /> the transition back to face-to-face instruction in a way that makes everyone feel safe and invited back into <br /> our buildings. The allocation of funds for re-entry will help to ensure that appropriate supports are <br /> available to students. Since this has been an unprecedented time,we do not know what supports our <br /> learners will need, but we need to be prepared for the additional cost. <br />
