Trump administration to release some K-12 school funding to Colorado

Trump administration to release some K-12 school funding to Colorado

The Trump administration has announced the release of $1.3 billion in education funding for after-school programs, with over $12.8 million allocated for Colorado. This decision comes after the administration lifted a hold on a portion of frozen K-12 grants on Friday.

Despite this release, the U.S. Department of Education has not unfrozen all the money that was unexpectedly held earlier this month. K-12 school districts across the country are still missing more than $5 billion that was anticipated for the upcoming academic year.

Colorado Governor Jared Polis expressed gratitude for the return of this funding to schools and after-school programs, emphasizing that it should not have been frozen in the first place. He urged the Trump administration to restore the remaining withheld funding to benefit students.

While some funds have been released, there is still uncertainty regarding the $67 million that the administration is withholding from Colorado’s K-12 school districts. This money was earmarked by Congress for programs supporting multilingual students, teacher training, and other educational initiatives.

Education Commissioner Susana CĂłrdova highlighted the importance of these programs in ensuring that every child has the opportunity to learn, grow, and succeed, regardless of their location. Without this grant funding, schools may face significant cuts to vital programs and services.

The decision to release some of the money follows legal action taken by several states, including Colorado, against the Trump administration for withholding the funding. In a letter, Republican senators expressed support for the programs funded by the money and emphasized their bipartisan nature.

The released funds will support free programming before and after school, as well as during the summer, providing essential child care for low-income parents and families in rural areas. These programs offer academic support in areas like reading and math, as well as enrichment in science and the arts.

The release of after-school funding has been met with relief by educators, such as Lake County Superintendent Kate Bartlett, who was facing the prospect of scaling back their after-school program. Bartlett emphasized the importance of these programs in providing a safe environment for children and supporting economic stability in communities.
