Federal Project Grant Award Summary

The U.S. Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded Brookeland Independent School District a Project Grant of $1,372,452 under the Impact Aid Program (CFDA 84.041, Title VII, Section 7002) with an award date of October 1, 2025, and a completion date of September 30, 2031. This funding supports comprehensive K-12 educational services for the Brookeland, Texas school district, which qualifies for Impact Aid assistance due to federal property acquisition that has reduced its local tax base. The grant specifically addresses educational needs for federally connected children, including students residing on federal or Indian lands and those with parents employed on federal property or in active military service.

The award finances a broad range of educational services and programs designed to maintain and enhance instructional quality, including general instruction, special education, English language learning, school nutrition programs, career and technical education, teacher professional development, and technology integration initiatives. These services ensure that the district can continue providing equitable educational opportunities to all students despite the reduced revenue from federally acquired property within its jurisdiction.
