The last three years have brought a surge of much needed federal relief aid to Kansas school districts, but those new funds come with a variety of conditions and requirements that will all be monitored for compliance.  

The Kansas State Department of Education (KSDE) doesn't want any district in a situation where they must return these or any other federal funds, so please join us for the 2023 Kansas Federal Fiscal Forum.  

Whether you are in the business office, a district administrator or a federal programs coordinator, this forum includes information that will be beneficial.  

Sessions will address the most critical elements of Uniform Grant Guidance; Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval (EDGAR) system; General Education Provisions Act (GEPA); and the other requirements that are fundamental to all federal education programs in a way that is accessible to new staff members and meaningful to veterans.  

Attendees also will receive the most recent hard copy of EDGAR rules and regulations.  

District Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief (ESSER), Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) and Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) funds may be used to support staff participation in this professional development event.  

This event will be March 30-31 at the Wichita Marriott, 9100 E. Corporate Hills Drive.
