The Devils Lake Public School District received $136,533 in federal funding through the Indian Education Grants to Local Educational Agencies program (CFDA 84.060), administered by the Office of Elementary and Secondary Education. The award, issued on July 1, 2025, with a completion date of June 30, 2026, supports comprehensive educational initiatives designed to address the unique cultural, language, and academic needs of American Indian and Alaska Native (AIAN) students in the district.

Under this formula grant, the district delivers a range of educational products and services including academic instruction tailored to AIAN students, cultural programming that preserves Native American heritage, professional development for educators, and targeted student support services. These initiatives are designed to help AIAN students meet challenging state academic standards while maintaining cultural identity. The funding supports K-12 programming at Devils Lake High School and across the broader school district, with performance measures focused on student achievement in reading and mathematics, high school graduation rates, and culturally responsive educational activities.
