This bill amends the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 (ESEA) to establish a new federal grant program focused on the well-being and retention of school personnel. It authorizes the Secretary of Education to award competitive grants to State educational agencies (SEAs) for fiscal years 2026 through 2030, with priority given to states experiencing educator shortages. These grants are designed to support the creation and enhancement of wellness programs for school staff. SEAs receiving these grants will then award subgrants to local educational agencies (LEAs) , prioritizing those serving high-need student populations. LEAs must use these funds to develop or enhance wellness programs for all school personnel , including teachers, principals, specialized instructional support staff, and paraprofessionals. The programs aim to create healthier and more sustainable working environments, improve mental, emotional, and physical well-being, and ultimately increase retention rates. Specifically, the wellness programs should address areas such as stress management, workplace conditions, workload manageability, access to support, and job satisfaction. The bill also mandates reporting requirements, where SEAs must submit annual and final reports to Congress and the Secretary. These reports will summarize program implementation, track changes in retention and vacancy rates, and identify best practices for effective wellness initiatives.
