Good facilities are essential to good learning. School Construction Aid allows school districts that need new facilities to receive help with their needs and planning assessments, as well as assistance in determining which construction costs may be eligible for state reimbursement. Through the school housing aid process, the Department of Education joins with the local district to provide the quality learning environment necessary for children to perform at high standards.
