Improving Pandemic Recovery Efforts in Education Agencies grant program (ALN 84.305X)
IES staff provided an overview of the Improving Pandemic Recovery Efforts in Education Agencies grant program. Under this program, the National Center for Education Research established two research networks with one examining recovery activities in prekindergarten through grade 12 and the other examining recovery activities in community colleges. Each network will consist of one project that coordinates and leads the network (Network Lead) and several projects that carry out research on recovery (Research Teams). Each Research Team will include at least one education agency (defined as state and local agencies involved in PreK-12 education and community college systems), and its research will focus on learners being served by that agency(ies) and the recovery activities in which the learners are engaged.
