Federal Grant Award Summary

The Fort Huachuca Accommodation School District received a $7.06 million Project Grant from the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education under the Impact Aid Program (CFDA 84.041, Title VII, Section 7003) effective October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2031. This award supports comprehensive K-12 educational services to students connected to the Fort Huachuca military installation in Sierra Vista, Arizona. The funded services encompass general instruction, special education, English language learning support, school nutrition programs, career and technical education, teacher training, and technology integration initiatives designed to offset the reduced local tax base resulting from federal property presence.

The grant funding enables the district to maintain targeted educational interventions and related services across General Myer Elementary School and Colonel Johnston Elementary School. Specifically, the district employs qualified paraprofessionals and coordinators to administer progress monitoring using evidence-based assessments including Dynamic Indicators of Basic Early Literacy Skills (DIBELS) and Northwest Evaluation Association (NWEA) evaluations. The district also implements Title I reading and math interventions utilizing specialized computer-based programs such as Headsprout, Xtramath, Lexia Reading, and Reflex Math, while providing related services through speech-language pathologists and occupational therapy supervisors to ensure targeted services reach students with the greatest need.
