CENTRAL COAST, Calif. (KION-TV) — Some states will soon get billions of dollars in public school funding that was previously withheld by the Trump Administration.
The Department of Education saying that the funding will start being distributed the week of July 28.
Monterey County is set to get back nearly $25 million, while Santa Cruz County is expecting more than $10 million.
The superintendent of the Alisal Union School District has responded, saying, “This is great news not just for our district — which depends on this critical funding to provide professional development and services for migrant students — but for children across Monterey County and California.”
