Indian education formula grants to leas

The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded $280,476 to Klamath-Trinity Joint Unified School District on July 1, 2026, under the Indian Education Grants to Local Educational Agencies program (CFDA 84.060).

The award funds educational services addressing the unique academic and culturally related needs of Indian students served by the district in Hoopa, California. The program supports instruction that enables Indian students to meet state performance standards, ensures students gain knowledge of Native communities, languages, tribal histories, traditions, and cultures, and develops the capacity of teachers and school leaders to provide culturally appropriate and effective instruction.

The award obligates $280,476 for the period July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. Klamath-Trinity Joint Unified School District, a local school district serving American Indian and Alaska Native students in the region, is the recipient. This is a formula grant distributed directly to eligible local educational agencies that enroll at least 10 Indian children or in which Indians constitute at least 25 percent of total enrollment; California-based LEAs are not subject to the minimum enrollment thresholds.
