American Charter Schools Foundation d.b.a. Apache Trail High School

The LEA will utilize the 20% set-aside to target practices and interventions that address the learning loss experienced by subgroups most impacted by COVID-19 (those that qualify as low-income, students of color, English learners, children with disabilities, students experiencing homelessness, children in foster care, and migratory students); due to the socio-economic status of the school population, all students may benefit from these targeted practices. The remaining funds will be used to provide additional services that allow for enhanced learning opportunities, space and technology for social distance, and other items which will enable the school to remain open after the initial shutdowns from the crisis.

Due to the demographics of the LEA, setaside funds will purchase programs that are offered to all students; however, highest priority will be given to students who have been disproportionately impacted by COVID-19 such as low-income families, students of all races and genders, children with disabilities, English learners, migratory students, students experiencing homelessness, and children and youth in foster care. The LEA will use set aside funds to augment its current social emotion learning plan (social worker services) and improve instructional offerings with the assistance of the Academic/SEL parapro. In addition, the LEA will provide summer enrichment to address learning loss.
