The Secretary shall— not later than 15 days after the date of enactment of this Act, issue a notice for applications; and not later than 15 days after receipt of an application, approve or deny such application. To receive a grant under section 101(b), a State educational agency shall submit an application to the Secretary at such time, in such manner, and requiring such information as the Secretary may reasonably require. Such application shall— describe how the State educational agency will use funds reserved under section 101(b)(3) to support local educational agencies receiving allocations under section 101(c) from the State educational agency; provide an assurance that the State educational agency, and each local educational agency receiving an allocation under section 101(c) from such State educational agency— will meet the requirements of section 105; and will widely inform the public by posting on its website information on the availability of each school extension program to be funded with such allocation in an easily understandable format and in multiple languages that parents can understand, to the extent practicable; provide a description of the application the State educational agency will use under section 103 for local educational agencies to receive allocations; and provide an assurance that the State educational agency will meet the maintenance of effort, maintenance of equity, and supplement, not supplant requirements in subsections
(d)through (f), respectively. From funds reserved under section 101(b)(3), a State educational agency— shall— provide technical assistance to local educational agencies receiving an allotment under section 101(c), with a priority for such local educational agencies that serve— high percentages of low-income children; and high concentrations of students who have been negatively or disproportionately affected (academically, socially, and emotionally) by the pandemic and school closures; support local educational agencies in coordinating with a designated regional educational laboratory (as described in section 174 of the Education Sciences Reform Act of 2002 ( 20 U.S.C. 9564 )) to effectively use data and evidence-based strategies to address learning recovery needs for students with disabilities, minority children, English learners, and low-income students; monitor the use of funds received by local educational agencies receiving allocations under section 101(c); and collect and analyze the data described under section 104 from such local educational agencies; and may support existing activities to combat learning loss due to COVID–19 as long as such activities meet the applicable requirements of this title. A State educational agency receiving a grant under this title shall maintain support for elementary and secondary education for the fiscal year for which such grant is received at least at the proportional levels of such State’s support for elementary and secondary education relative to such State’s overall spending, averaged over fiscal years 2017, 2018, and 2019. For a fiscal year in which a State educational agency receives a grant under section 101(b), in a case in which a per-pupil reduction in State funding occurs for any high-poverty local educational agency in the State, such reduction may not exceed the overall per-pupil reduction in State funds, if any, across all local educational agencies in such State in such fiscal year. For the fiscal year in which a State educational agency receives a grant under section 101(b), the State educational agency may not reduce State funding for the 20 percent of local educational agencies in the State with the highest percentage of economically disadvantaged students (based on the percentages of economically disadvantaged students served by all local educational agencies in the State) below the level of funding provided to such local educational agencies in fiscal year 2019. Funds made available to State educational agencies under this title shall be used to supplement, and not supplant, other Federal and non-Federal funds that would otherwise be used for activities authorized under this title.
