Federal Grant Award Summary

The Fallbrook Union Elementary School District received a $1,905,582 Project Grant award from the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education under the Impact Aid Program (CFDA 84.041), effective October 1, 2025, with a completion date of September 30, 2031. This award supports comprehensive K-8 educational services in Fallbrook, California, where federal land acquisitions and military installations have substantially reduced the local tax base. The funding enables the district to maintain and enhance general instruction, special education services, English language learner programming, school nutrition services, career and technical education, teacher professional development and training, and technology integration initiatives.

The Impact Aid Program provides financial assistance to local educational agencies adversely affected by federal activities. The award directly supports the district's mission to serve its student population, which includes significant numbers of military-connected and Native American children who qualify the district for Impact Aid funding under Section 7002 of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act. In addition to this prime award, the district leverages supplementary federal funding through sub-grants from the California Department of Education to expand educational offerings and address specific student needs, ensuring sustainable, high-quality educational programming throughout the award period.
