Funding to Support Student Safety & Wellbeing
This resource guide supports K-12 schools in locating Federal, state, and local funding to enhance safety and security.
In K-12 education, funding generally comes from three main sources: federal, state, and local.
Each level has a distinct role in providing resources to public schools. Government agencies support federal, state, and local funding programs.
Federal Funding Resources
The federal government, through various laws and appropriations, allocates funding for K-12 education.
Federal funding is targeted support for specific programs and needs, with an emphasis on equity.
State Funding Resources
State governments are the primary source of funding for K-12 schools and most states use a funding formula to distribute state funds to local school districts.
State Education Agency (SEA) are also responsible for allocating federal funds to Local Education Agencies (LEAs).
Government Agencies
Government agencies play important roles in funding and supporting K-12 schools.
These agencies provide targeted funding for areas like school safety, health services, technology infrastructure, and disaster preparedness, which complement funding provided by the Department of Education.
