Las escuelas de Colorado están por recibir casi $1.2 billones de dólares en pagos de estímulo bajo el Plan de Rescate Estadounidense, y la mayoría del dinero irá directo a los distritos.

Los superintendentes y sus mesas directivas tendrán mucha flexibilidad para decidir cómo dirigir el dinero, aunque el gobierno federal ha dicho que tienen que usar por lo menos 20% para responder a las brechas de aprendizaje que se han desarrollado durante la pandemia.

¿Cómo te gustaría ver que tu distrito use el dinero? ¿Qué prioridades deben tener en cuenta los líderes de los distritos? Cuéntanos en esta encuesta.
