As of September 2010, the NW Education Recovery Clearinghouse is no longer being updated. For current information regarding ARRA in education, visit the U.S. Department of Education’s website.

The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) is an unprecedented investment by the federal government in changing students' lives. The more than $100 billion in funds will not only help financially strapped school systems retain jobs, but will also support educational reforms and innovations.

How Education Northwest Can Help

As district, school, and state leaders plan ARRA investments, we can provide support by:

• Providing easy access to critical and useful information to inform fiscal decisionmaking.
• Offering tools to help your school or district weigh the costs and benefits of various investments, both in the long- and short-term.
• Ensuring the information on this site is current, valid, and accurate.
• Offering expertise through "shovel-ready" projects and award-winning materials that ensure your ARRA investments are maximized and sustainable.
