Indian education formula grants to leas

Midwest City Public Schools I-52 (doing business as Mid-Del School System) received a Formula Grant award of $205,501.00 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 of July 1, 2025 through June 30, 2026. This award supports comprehensive educational programs designed to address the unique cultural, language, and academic needs of American Indian and Alaska Native (AIAN) students enrolled in the school district.

The funded grant activities include academic instruction, cultural programming, teacher professional development, and targeted student support services for Native American students in elementary and secondary educational settings. These services are designed to help AIAN students meet challenging state academic standards while preserving their cultural heritage. The school district is required to maintain performance measures focused on student achievement in reading and mathematics, high school graduation rates, and culturally responsive activities, while limiting administrative costs to no more than 5% of the total award.
