The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded Kayenta Unified Schools $15.484837 million under the Impact Aid Program (CFDA 84.041) on October 1, 2025. The award provides financial assistance to replace local revenue lost due to the presence of federally connected children and Federal property within the school district's tax base. Kayenta Unified Schools, a local educational agency serving a predominantly Native American student population in the Navajo Nation, is located in Kayenta, Arizona. The period of performance runs from October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2031. Impact Aid funding supports the education of children living on Federal property, including Indian lands, and children with parents employed on Federal property or on active duty in the uniformed services. Payments under the program are computed on a statutory formula basis and made annually to eligible local educational agencies, with funds supporting comprehensive K-12 educational services including academic instruction, cultural programming, special education, English language learning, and technology integration.
