The ESSER III Plan for Akron Westfield details the district's strategy for utilizing American Rescue Plan Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief (ESSER III) funds. The plan outlines key areas such as stakeholder consultation, assessment of academic, social, emotional, and mental health needs, and identification of students most impacted by COVID-19. It focuses on implementing prevention and mitigation strategies, allocating 20% of funds to address learning loss and accelerate learning through evidence-based interventions, and ensuring compliance with statutory requirements for health and safety measures and policies for a safe return to in-person instruction and continuity of services.
