Holcomb Announces $61M for Education Connectivity, Devices and Resources<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>INDIANAPOLIS (August 20, 2020) \u2014 Governor Eric J. Holcomb today announced the recipients of $61 million in grants designed to improve connectivity and increase devices available to students and teachers through the Governor\u2019s Emergency Education Relief (GEER) fund.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIndiana\u2019s students, parents and teachers have worked hard to adapt to the challenges COVID-19 has brought to education,\u201d said Gov. Holcomb. \u201cThese emergency funds will enable Hoosier students to be more successful with remote learning. Some families will now worry less about internet connectivity, more students will have access to the technology needed at home, and more educators will have the necessary devices to teach remotely.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Applicants submitted plans that included:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 the purchase of student devices including Chromebooks and iPads<br \/>\n\u2022 new or upgraded laptops, MacBooks, Chromebooks, and iPads for teachers<br \/>\n\u2022 and mi-fi devices with corresponding subscription plans for families who lack reliable internet connectivity. <\/p>\n<p>These grants will fund a minimum of 68,689 student devices, nearly 2,900 teacher devices, and more than 85,800 connectivity solutions, according to the information provided by applicants.<\/p>\n<p>Grant awardees include 184 traditional school corporations representing 1,366 schools, 64 public charter schools, and 124 non-public schools. There are almost 674,500 students enrolled in schools receiving these grants.<\/p>\n<p>Twelve institutions of higher education will receive more than $11 million. This money will fund specialized training to better support parents and families, students with special needs, English learners, and provide social-emotional learning resources during virtual\/remote learning. The initiatives are designed to directly assist K-12 teachers, including targeted professional development opportunities for eLearning, curated curriculum content, and technical assistance in implementing online curriculum. These resources will be made available at no cost to Indiana K-12 teachers. <\/p>\n<p>GEER was established by the federal CARES Act. Traditional public school corporations, public charter schools, accredited non-public schools, higher education institutions, and other education-related entities were eligible to apply. An application could be completed by a single school corporation or a combination of eligible education entities.<\/p>\n<p>The 257 applications received were evaluated by a team from the Indiana Department of Education, the Indiana Commission for Higher Education, and the Indiana State Board of Education.<\/p>\n<p>A detailed breakdown of grant recipients is <a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/docs\/State_of_Indiana\/Governor\/2020_GEER%20Award_Summary.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">available here<\/a>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3>Related Images:<\/h3><div class=\"ngg-related-gallery\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/fwcs\/wendy_with_kids_2007.jpg\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\"Fort Wayne Community Schools Superintendent Dr. Wendy Robinson.
