Office of Learning Recovery and Acceleration Special Announcement

REQUIRED ESSER Survey Now Available! 

Action Required for ALL PSUs

All states that received Elementary and Secondary Emergency Relief funds under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act (ESSER I), Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations (CRRSA) Act (ESSER II), or the American Rescue Plan (ARP) Act (ESSER III) are required to report information to the U.S. Department of Education (USED).

Federal Programs, Office of Learning and Research (OLR), and School Business Services (SBS) have collaborated to create a survey that collects the information required by the USED. This survey will be completed in Qualtrics. To assist PSUs, our teams have created a Year 4 ESSER Survey Guidance Document which contains information about how to complete the survey, survey requirements, a link to the survey, and all questions contained in the survey.

Please do not begin to complete the survey within Qualtrics until your PSU has completed the following:

• Designate 1 individual who will be responsible for completing the Qualtrics survey; each PSU should only submit one response.
• Review the Guidance Document and collect the required information for the questions within the survey.
• If you would like to print or download the guidance document, use the following link and click file-->download or file-->print
