Federal Grant Award Summary

Pottsboro Independent School District received a $472,318 Project Grant award effective October 1, 2025, through the Impact Aid Program (CFDA 84.041) administered by the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education. The award extends through September 30, 2031, and is designed to offset the adverse fiscal impact of federal property acquisition on the district's local tax base. The grant supports comprehensive K-12 educational services including general classroom instruction, special education programming, English language learner support, school nutrition services, career and technical education offerings, teacher professional development, and technology integration across the district's educational curriculum.

This Impact Aid award enables Pottsboro ISD to maintain educational service quality and capacity in Pottsboro, Texas, where federal land holdings reduce available local property tax revenue. The district has demonstrated sustained participation in the Impact Aid Program since 2022, with this current award representing part of a multi-year federal funding portfolio that also includes child nutrition programming through pass-through funding from the Texas Department of Agriculture. The district's consistent engagement in Impact Aid funding reflects its status as a LEA (Local Educational Agency) meeting statutory eligibility thresholds for federal property impact assistance.
