  • Teacher and Support Staff COVID-19 Grants:
     
    This week the Michigan Department of Treasury announced a COVID-19 grant for educational staff that provided services to students during our spring closures. This grant will come directly from the Treasury to the eligible staff members. We will be emailing or mailing the grant certification form to eligible teachers and support staff by November 9, 2020 based on the state's reporting to us. It is important to note that there may be employees that are qualified for the grant based on title and FAQ's, but do not meet the eligibility requirements of the grant.
     
    If you do not receive an email or letter by November 9, 2020 notifying you that you are eligible and wish to appeal, please email Amber Kruskamp (akruskamp@clare.k12.mi.us) no later than December 4th. FAQ's are provided here: https://www.michigan.gov/documents/treasury/
     
    Please read the FAQ's prior to any appeal and include justification for eligibility in the appeal.
