DUE DATE: ESSER III Assurances

Dear School Business Professionals,
See email below. Districts may wish to delay submission of their ESSER III assurances until closer to the deadline to give themselves as much time as possible to complete and submit a Safe Return to In-Person Instruction and Continuity of Services Plan.
Thank you,
Regards,
School Business Advisory Services Team Santa Barbara County Education Office
