Thank you for the reminder on this! I'd checked in with my school district previously, and they told me that they wouldn't be providing that information until September 2024. However, when I looked through the government reporting site this time(https://oese.ed.gov/offices/education-stabilization-fund/elementary-secondary-school-emergency-relief-fund/stateplans/) they have some numbers in now.

Unfortunately, what they spent it on in terms of air quality and HVAC is extremely vague....simply that they will "perform ductwork renovations" and "improve air quality through filtration." Honestly, I have no real idea what that means to them and they have no publicly stated goals. Knowing many of them I suspect they have no idea what it means, either. They likely just handed the money off to business owning friends and/or family who told them they'd take care of it.

They budgeted 35% of their COVID relief funds to it, overall, on the surface. A deeper look showed that 65% of that 35%(~23% of the total received) went to completely replacing non-functioning HVAC systems in just 2 schools, meaning the other 32 schools shared about a third(~12% of the total) of the money.
