SO WHAT?

As you are wrapping up your sales in schools for the 2023-24 school year, remember that many schools still have ESSER funds to use to purchase products.  Some may use them for summer school.  Others will purchase for the 2024-25 school year. Schools are scrutinizing budgets as ESSER comes to an end and may be reticent to spend money.  You may remind them that their ESSER funds could be used to purchase your product or service.
