Indian education formula grants to leas

The Oneida Nation received $118,101 in formula grant funding from the 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 award supports comprehensive educational programming designed to address the unique cultural, language, and academic needs of American Indian and Alaska Native (AIAN) students in the Hobart, Wisconsin service area.

The funded activities encompass academic instruction, cultural programming, professional development for educators, and targeted student support services aimed at helping AIAN students meet state academic standards while preserving cultural heritage. The grant requires the Oneida Nation to limit administrative costs to no more than 5% of total funding and to maintain focus on measurable outcomes including student achievement in reading and mathematics, high school graduation rates, and culturally responsive educational activities. Recipients must maintain grant records for three years following the completion of funded activities and are subject to federal audit requirements if total annual federal expenditures exceed $750,000.
