The Massena Central School District has received a $142,474 Formula Grant award from the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education under the Indian Education Grants to Local Educational Agencies (CFDA 84.060) program. This annual award provides supplemental educational services and resources aimed at helping Native American students in the district meet state academic standards and gain knowledge of their tribal cultures and histories. The funding enables the school district to deliver direct instructional services and resources to Native American students to address their unique educational and culturally-related academic needs. Additionally, Massena Central School District has been a subrecipient on various other education grants from the New York State Education Department, which have supported early childhood, K-12, and nutrition programs for the district.
