Summary

The Educational Equity Challenge Grant Act would let the Secretary of Education award competitive grants to public school districts, state agencies, consortia, and nonprofit partnerships (but not for‑profit firms). Grants must target academic, social‑emotional, mental, behavioral, and physical health gaps—especially those worsened by COVID‑19. The bill sets aside portions of the funding for tribal schools, rural districts, and low‑income student populations.
