This $90,471,477 Formula Grant award from the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education provides funding for the Title I Grants to Local Educational Agencies (CFDA 84.010) program. This program aims to improve teaching and learning outcomes for students who are failing or at risk of failing to meet challenging state academic standards, particularly in high-poverty schools. The grant funds a wide range of supplemental educational services, including academic interventions, professional development for teachers, special education support, English language acquisition programs, and evidence-based strategies to enhance educational opportunities for economically disadvantaged students. As the state education agency, the Nebraska Department of Education serves as the primary recipient and distributes sub-awards to local educational agencies such as school districts, charter schools, and educational service centers across the state. Notable sub-awardees include Pender Public School District 1, West Point Public Schools, Hay Springs School District 3, and over 100 other local school districts and educational entities in Nebraska, who use the funding to provide direct instructional and support services to improve student achievement.
