For the last three years, schools have had access to an unprecedented stream of federal funds to help them weather the ongoing effects of the pandemic—including hiring staff members to address the rising social-emotional, behavioral, and mental health needs of students.
Those funds are expiring in the next few months, but schools’ fiscal challenges have hardly disappeared. Recruiting staff remains a perpetual puzzle and the need for personnel to support students’ academic and social-emotional needs remains high. The question of how to continue paying for critical positions is top of mind for many leaders.
In this webinar, district leaders and experts will discuss strategies for schools to use to invest in the teachers and staff members who students need while keeping a close eye on their budgets.
