The US Department of Education has distributed all $122 billion in school Covid-19 relief funding from the American Rescue Plan to states, the Biden administration announced — a major milestone as school districts continue to grapple with Omicron's surge

The Biden administration last March announced the allocation of more than $122 billion for schools from the American Rescue Plan Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief Fund, with two-thirds of those funds -- totaling $81 billion --"made available to states immediately." The remaining federal dollars were contingent on the approval of a state plan detailing how the funds would be used, the Education Department noted at the time.

This comes as the Biden administration has continued to urge school districts to take certain safety measures to ensure classrooms remain open for in-person instruction in the second half of the school year.
