STM Parents and Families,
Some of you may or may not know that Congress recently passed a stimulus bill that provides $2.75 billion in aid to private schools in the wake of the pandemic - this includes Catholic Schools! This new funding is called the "Emergency Assistance to Non-Public Schools" (EANS) Program.
In order for our Catholic schools to receive these funds, Governor Polis must apply for this assistance before February 8, 2021. If Gov. Polis fails to act, our Catholic schools, students, and families will miss this important source of help in a very difficult school year.
We are asking you all to consider sending the Governor a message encouraging him to apply for these funds that we are due under federal law. Please tell our Governor to make sure ALL private schools, including our Catholic schools, receive the aid they are due under federal law. You simply need to use the following link below to submit a pre-written comment or feel free to write your own.
Thank you for your help in advocating for our Catholic schools!
