The U.S. Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded the Michigan Department of Education a $1,429,212 Formula Grant under the Rural Education Achievement Program (CFDA 84.358) to improve the quality of teaching and learning in rural school districts. This award, effective July 1, 2024 through September 30, 2025, provides financial assistance to rural local educational agencies (LEAs) to address the unique educational challenges faced by small, geographically isolated school districts. The Formula Grant funding will support initiatives to enhance the educational infrastructure, instructional resources, and academic support systems of these rural schools. As the state educational agency, the Michigan Department of Education will manage the sub-award process and distribute portions of the grant to eligible LEAs across the state to deliver direct services and localized educational improvements.
