Summary

The Student Support and Academic Enrichment (SSAE) Grant, authorized by the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA), aims to enhance academic achievement for all students. It focuses on providing access to a well-rounded education, improving school conditions for learning, and enhancing technology use to boost digital literacy. This initiative aligns with Oregon's educational goals to ensure equitable access to quality education, empowering students with essential skills and experiences necessary for success.

Overview

Student Support and Academic Enrichment (SSAE) Grant The Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA), which reauthorized the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 (ESEA), was signed into law in December 2015. Newly authorized under ESSA is the Student Support and Academic Enrichment (SSAE) program. The purpose of the SSAE grant is to improve students’ academic achievement by increasing the capacity of State, districts, and local communities to: provide all students with access to a well-rounded education; improve school conditions for student learning; and improve the use of technology in order to improve the academic achievement and digital literacy of all students. These three focus areas strongly align with Oregon’s goals and mission to ensure that every student will have access to and benefit from a world-class, well-rounded, and equitable education system. As defined in Oregon’s ESSA State Plan, a well-rounded education focuses on the whole student - the community, learning experiences, the knowledge and skills, beliefs, and attributes the student develops. In order to provide access to all of the opportunities described in ESSA, districts are encouraged to use Title IV-A and other federal funds in a coordinated way across programs leveraging federal, state, and local funds and maximizing funding flexibility.
