Indian education formula grants to leas

Tate Topa Tribal School received $122,020 in formula grant 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. The award supports comprehensive educational services designed to address the unique cultural, linguistic, and academic needs of American Indian and Alaska Native students enrolled at the school in Fort Totten, North Dakota.

Through this funding, Tate Topa Tribal School delivers culturally-relevant academic instruction, cultural programming, and targeted student support services to help Native American students meet challenging state academic standards while preserving their cultural heritage. The school complements this federal education funding with sub-awards from the North Dakota Department of Public Instruction to support critical school meal programs, including the Summer Food Service Program, School Breakfast Program, and National School Lunch Program, thereby integrating nutritional assistance with academically and culturally responsive educational programming.
