Springfield Public Schools is asking the public for input on how to spend $60 million in federal funds dedicated to helping students affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
The school district will receive the money over the next two years as part of the Elementary and Secondary School Relief Fund, passed by Congress in March as part of a larger COVID-19 relief package.
Stephen Hall, a spokesperson for SPS, says the district is asking parents, teachers, students, and community members how they want to spend the funds.
“It is important for us to hear from a variety of constituents regarding what they view to be the most critical needs in the aftermath and ongoing impact of COVID,” Hall told KSMU.

The Harrisonburg City Councilâs Fiscal Year 2021-2022 budget didnât include funding for the continued construction of Harrisonburg High School 2. This was announced at the City Council meeting on April 13, despite the realization of HHS 2 being a precedent in response to severe overcrowding of the cityâs only high school.
Closures of the JMU and EMU campuses, alongside the closing of local businesses ordered by the governor, were cited as negative contributions to the cityâs major revenue sources by Eric Campbell, Harrisonburg city manager. The project was initially approved with funding through a multi-year real estate tax increase, but Campbell said it wasnât in the Harrisonburg communityâs best interest to have this property tax increase during the pandemic.
