Education Funds for Parents When Schools Close

This bill aims to directly provide federal education funds to parents or guardians if a public school fails to offer in-person instruction for more than three days. This support is intended to cover qualified educational expenses outside of school, such as tutoring or materials, particularly benefiting students from less affluent backgrounds who are most affected by school closures.
Key points

These funds can be used for tutoring, educational materials, private school tuition, testing fees, or therapies for students with disabilities.
The goal is to support students, especially those from disadvantaged backgrounds, who are most impacted by school closures.
