Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief (ESSER) Equivalent Funding Grants

Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief (ESSER) Equivalent grants provide funding to local education agencies (LEAs) as they prepare for, respond to and address the impacts of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic on students, families and educators. ESSER LEA grants provided by the US Department of Education (USED) could only be used to support Title I-A eligible LEAs, so OSSE created ESSER Equivalent grants for LEAs that are not eligible for these ESSER grants. Please refer to the ESSER eligibility lists to determine if your LEA is eligible for ESSER grants or ESSER Equivalent grants.

Applications for ESSER Equivalent grants are completed annually in the Enterprise Grants Management System (EGMS). Please review the information below for further details on how and when to apply for ESSER Equivalent grants.
