The Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA) awarded a $750,000 Project Grant to Belle Chasse Academy, Inc. under the Competitive Grants: Promoting K-12 Student Achievement at Military-Connected Schools program (CFDA 12.556). This 5-year grant, which commenced on September 30, 2023, supports the delivery of academic, social, and emotional programs and services tailored to address the unique needs of the school's highly mobile, military-connected student population. As a sub-awardee, Belle Chasse Academy has also secured additional federal funding streams from Louisiana state education agencies to bolster core academics, nutrition services, special education, pandemic relief aid, after-school enrichment, and educational interventions. The diverse grant investments from multiple federal sources enable Belle Chasse Academy to comprehensively fulfill its mission of providing high-quality, student-centered education that fosters achievement and self-actualization for military-connected youth.
