The Okemah School District 26 was awarded a $207,978 Project Grant under the U.S. Department of Education's Impact Aid Program (CFDA 84.041) on October 15, 2024. This federal grant provides financial assistance to local educational agencies (LEAs) impacted by federal activities, such as the presence of federal land, which reduces the local tax base.

As a sub-recipient, the school district has also participated in various federal grant programs administered by the State Department of Education to provide school meals, special education services, teacher training and recruitment, pandemic preparedness and response, and career-readiness education initiatives. Through this federal funding, Okemah School District 26 will continue to maintain and enhance the educational programs and services offered to its students and community.
