CARES Act Funding and Impact on CCSD

➢ The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act was passed by Congress on March 27th, 2020➢ The CARES Act provides fast and direct economic assistance due to the unforeseen financial

impact related to COVID-19

➢ Two sources of funding for Cherry Creek School District:➢ Direct allocation to Cherry Creek School District based upon Title I funding formula

➢ $3.4M ESSER Grant Funding for Cherry Creek Schools➢ The State of Colorado has received $1.67B from the Coronavirus Relief Fund as part of the CARES

Act➢ $510M for school districts and charter schools➢ $28.5M for Cherry Creek Schools

10

CARES Act Funding and Impact on CCSD

➢ One-time in nature

➢ Allowable uses remain unclear: It is not intended to back fill for State revenue losses➢ This funding is not included in the financials on the subsequent slides as the focus will be the

School Finance Act / Cherry Creek Schools General Fund

➢ Our structural budget issues before COVID still exist

➢ Will this lead to increased Budget Stabilization (Negative Factor) in FY2020-21 due to revenue being pushed into FY2019-20?

➢ Potential School Finance Changes: Reducing Cost of Living Factor and requiring that local voter-approved Mill Levy Overrides (MLO) to be used as Local Share

➢ 2021-2022: this could be the worst year of funding because there is likely to be no federal dollars to backfill state cuts
