Notice of Public Comment on the Use of Federal Funds
The Cleveland Metropolitan School District is in the process of developing Part B of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) Special Education grant allocations for the 2022-2023 school year. The District is seeking comments from the public on how to allocate and expend these funds. The IDEA-B funds, and any supplemental funds provided through the American Rescue Plan (ARP), will support the provision of special education services to children with disabilities who are ages 3 to 21 and enrolled in Cleveland Metropolitan School District.
Districts receiving special education grant funds are required to be compliant with Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) regulations.
