Learning Recovery Emergency Block Grant

The Learning Recovery Emergency Block Grant (LREBG) provides one-time funds to county offices of education, school districts, and charter schools for implementing learning recovery initiatives through the 2027-28 school year. These funds help Local Educational Agencies (LEAs) address the academic and emotional impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Purpose of the Grant

In line with California Education Code (EC) Section 32526(b), LEAs receiving LREBG funds are required to use them for:

• Academic learning recovery: Addressing learning gaps and promoting student academic success.
• Social and emotional well-being: Supporting the mental and emotional health of staff and students.

All expenditures must align with the purposes outlined in EC 32526(c), ensuring that the funds are used effectively to benefit students and staff.

LEAs that receive LREBG funds are required to submit interim expenditure reports to the California Department of Education (CDE) detailing how the funds are being used. Below is the report Evergreen School District submitted.
