President Obama's economic stimulus package is putting billions of dollars into education – more than we've ever seen!

Spending your stimulus dollars with Crick Software will transform your school/school district into an inclusive learning environment where all students have the tools they need to achieve their potential.

Key points

• The overall total for education spending over two years is $80 billion, including $12 billion for IDEA and $13 billion for Title I.
• The money should be spent quickly to stimulate the economy and to have an immediate impact on education. Part of the money has already been distributed to each state, and states have been told to make it available to school districts by April 30th.
