Federal Grant Award Summary

The Hyde Park Central School District received a $348,862 Project Grant from the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education under the Impact Aid Program (CFDA 84.041) for the period of October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2031. This award provides financial assistance to support comprehensive kindergarten through 12th-grade educational services in the federally impacted Hyde Park, New York school district, where the federal government's acquisition of real property has reduced the local tax base. The funding enables the district to maintain and enhance core educational programs including general instruction, special education, English language learning, school nutrition services, and technology integration.

The award represents part of the district's ongoing participation in the Impact Aid Program, which specifically targets local educational agencies serving areas with significant federal land presence or military installations that adversely affect local revenue capacity. Beyond this prime grant, the Hyde Park Central School District has leveraged additional sub-award funding from the New York State Education Department to support complementary initiatives in language instruction, services for educationally disadvantaged children, student academic achievement improvements, school safety and health programs, and teacher training. These combined funding sources demonstrate a coordinated approach to addressing the operational and educational challenges presented by reduced local tax revenue in federally impacted communities.
