New Recovery Investment Website |
|
The Maine CITE Coordinating Center has unveiled a new website to assist school administrators in determining how to utilize new funding from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA)
The ARRA will result in substantial funds available to Maine schools for services for students with disabilities. The funding is intended as a “one-time” investment and is expected to be used in a way that will not result in “unsustainable continuing commitment after the funds expire,” the so-called “cliff effect.” Here is a direct link to the ARRA website. There is also a one-page flyer which you may download and share with colleagues |
