Trump administration withholds over $6 billion for after-school, summer programs and more
- By the July 1, 2025 deadline, the U.S. Department of Education had yet to distribute over $6 billion in nationwide federal grant funding to school districts.
- The Trump administration is reviewing several congressionally approved programs to ensure they align with presidential priorities and has not decided if or when funding will be awarded.
- Delays in federal funding are impacting critical grants that support programs such as after-school care, services for English language learners, and adult education, jeopardizing school districts' budgets and planned initiatives.
- Chris Reykdal, Washington's superintendent of public instruction, cautioned that losing the funding could place numerous school districts under severe financial strain, while Jim Clark, leader of the local Boys and Girls Club, predicted rapid and serious negative consequences if the grants are cut.
- If the review continues without Congressional action, schools may face significant cuts to essential programs, threatening after-school care and teaching for vulnerable students this fall.
