Abstract: Wisconsin school districts received more than $2 billion in one-time federal relief funds to address the effects of COVID-19 and boost student recovery and district finances. Early spending focused on educational technology to help students and schools adapt to virtual learning, while later spending focused on catching students up academically following setbacks from the pandemic and long-term school closures. Despite these efforts, Wisconsin's students have yet to fully catch up. [This report was made possible by the family of Norman N. Gill.]
