Formula Grant S060A261047

The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded Edmond Public Schools $476,112 under the Indian Education Grants to Local Educational Agencies program (CFDA 84.060) on July 1, 2026, with performance through June 30, 2027.

The formula grant funds address the unique educational and culturally related academic needs of Indian students, supporting their achievement of challenging state performance standards. The program also ensures Indian students gain knowledge and understanding of Native communities, languages, Tribal histories, traditions, and cultures, and builds the capacity of teachers, principals, school leaders, and staff to provide culturally appropriate and effective instruction to Indian students.

Edmond Public Schools, a local school district in Edmond, Oklahoma, serves American Indian and Alaska Native students through academic instruction, cultural programming, and targeted student support services. The district qualifies for the formula grant as a local educational agency enrolling Indian students in Oklahoma, a state exempt from the standard enrollment threshold requirements. The award obligates $476,112 for the twelve-month grant period. Funds must be spent or obligated within the project period. Records must be maintained three years after completion of the activities funded by the grant.
