4. Paying for technologies associated with attending online classes

If a student was impacted by the disruption of campus operations due to the coronavirus and
deemed eligible, per the eligibility requirements they were classified as eligible. Award amounts were
determined by dividing the grant amount received by the number of students eligible resulting in full
utilization of this calculation, each eligible student was designated an award amount of $958.00. Relief
grant funds are held in a separate account apart from all normal school operation funds. Unused
grant funds will be allocated to incoming students within the next several months as no longer than
the end of year with no co-mingling of funds coming from any other area of school.
