The Beebe School District has a preliminary allocation of funds in the amount of $4,758,267.78 under the American Rescue Plan. The focus is to help schools return safely to in-person instruction, maximize in-person instruction time, sustain the safe operations of schools, and address the academic, social, emotional, and mental health impact of COVID-19. The district is requesting feedback on how these funds should be spent. We encourage all stakeholders within the community to complete the form below. #BPRD
