Maryland schools have until the end of September to allocate the remainder of federal money received during the pandemic – or risk losing it back to the government. Maryland and other states are on the clock to get the money spent, allocated or ask for an extension. Maryland has about $780 million left of almost $2 billion received from the American Rescue Plan’s Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief. States have until January 2025 to liquidate their funds or ask for an extension until March of 2026.
