Utopian Academy is requesting feedback on the ongoing planning of the use of the America
Rescue Plan funds received to provide an environment that mitigates the negative impact of
COVID-19 on schools.
American Rescue Plan funds (CARES Act 1, CRRSA - ESSER II, and ARP) have been provided to districts to:
1. Provide for a safe return to in-person instruction consistent with CDC guidance on
reopening schools.
2. Address learning loss through evidence-based interventions.
3. Target students who are underserved or disproportionately impacted by the COVID-19
pandemic.
4. Maintain continuity of services for scholars and staff including SEL, mental health,
scholar health, and food services.
Input from our stakeholders is an important part of developing and modifying the plan that
addresses the most pressing needs of our students. We want to hear from you! Please
provide your ideas and feedback regarding ways that we can maximize the use of these
funds and maintain effective strategies for safety and learning. Please note that we are entering the final year of support from the federal government with the ARP ESSER III funds. Your input is an important
part of our planning. We want to hear from you!
