EDUCATION STIMULUS

How will the money allotted for education be spent under Obama’s American Recovery & Reinvestment Act of 2009? Education stimulus covers federal funding for school districts; state by state allocations; grants for programs helping students with disabilities and for schools with high concentrations of students from low-income families; grants for repairing and modernizing schools and colleges; money for the Head Start program and child care; and Pell Grants to reduce the cost of college.
