The Reporting Application is available at www.cde.ca.gov/fg/cr/index.asp. Please use the same password as previous CARES Act Reporting and the ESSER III Assurances. Completing the quarterly reports is a requirement of receiving the stimulus funds, failure to comply can lead to future audit findings.

IMPORTANT: ESSER III Expenditure Plan – October Board Meeting

ESSER III Expenditure Plan
LEAs that receive ESSER III funds are required to develop an ESSER III Expenditure Plan. The plan, at a minimum, must address how the LEA will use ESSER III funds to address students’ academic, social, emotional, and mental health needs, as well as opportunity gaps that were exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. In developing the plan, LEAs must consult with specified stakeholders, and must provide for public input that is considered. LEAs should use the ESSER III Expenditure Plan Template and Instructions<www.cde.ca.gov/fg/cr/documents/esseriiiexpenditureplan.docx> to complete the expenditure plan.
Allocations CDE’s Schedule of ESSER III Allocations<www.cde.ca.gov/fg/fo/r14/documents/esseriii20alloc2.xlsx> shows the total revised ESSER III allocation amount that districts can expect to receive. The Expenditure Plan should summarize all planned expenditures for ESSER III funds. There is some understanding that these plans may require later revision. If funds are not included in the plan, the assumption would be there is not an intention to spend those funds. At the end of the grant period, unexpended funds will be subject to recoupment.
Timeline The ESSER III Expenditure Plan must be adopted by the LEA’s local governing board at a public meeting by Oct. 29, 2021, and submitted for review and approval within five days of adoption. School districts must submit their adopted plans to the county office of education (COE), and charter schools must submit their plans to both the chartering authority for review and to the COE in which they operate for review and approval.
Our office has developed an ESSER III Finance Roadmap to assist you in completing the financial portions of the plan (see attached). Please be sure to perform the plan checks indicated in this tool before submission to our office.
Additional resources to help with completion of the Expenditure Plan can be found on CDE’s ARP Act Funding<www.cde.ca.gov/fg/cr/arpact.asp> page.
We are available to assist. If you have any questions, please reach out to our office.
