As ARRA stimulus funding winds down, 100,000 to 300,000 public school jobs are at risk, according to U.S. Secretary of Education, Arne Duncan. In the economic stimulus bill passed in February 2009, Congress appropriated about $100 billion in emergency education financing. States spent much of that in the current fiscal year, saving more than 342,000 school jobs, about 5.5 percent of all the positions in the nation’s 15,000 school systems, according to a study by the Center on Reinventing Public Education at the University of Washington.
