Indian education formula grants to leas

Missisquoi Valley School District received $233,677 in funding from the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education under the Indian Education Grants to Local Educational Agencies program (CFDA 84.060) for the period July 1, 2025 through June 30, 2026. This formula grant supports comprehensive educational programs designed to address the unique cultural, linguistic, and academic needs of American Indian and Alaska Native (AIAN) students enrolled in the district.

Through this award, the district delivers targeted educational services including academic instruction in core subjects, culturally responsive programming, professional development for educators, and specialized student support services. The grant funding enables the school district to ensure that Native American students meet challenging state academic standards while preserving their cultural heritage. As a consistent recipient of this federal program, Missisquoi Valley School District leverages these resources in conjunction with supplementary state and federal awards to provide comprehensive educational services across multiple domains including nutrition assistance, Title programs, and special education support to its student population in Swanton, Vermont.
