Grant money can only be used for specific things, unfortunately.

this is the answer unfortunately. "Updating our schools technology to the modern age" sounds a lot better on our governors resume than "gave the dirty kids soap in the bathroom again"
we genuinely haven't had soap in the dispensers in a few of the bathrooms for months :/

Exactly. I wanted to say at my last job that was education based and worked in schools but not for the school district directly. My supervisors and the district would ask if there was anything the team needed. I would always lead with raises and incentives for the clients but they would straight up tell me that they can only get me things that would fall under technology and electronic aid equipment and to try to think of anything that could qualify. They gave me a laptop that I didn’t want and never used, the office did get a ps4 and Xbox one for the kids to play(I beat so many at risk teens at UFC) but we were able to get better mileage reimbursement from .50 to .65
