Federal Grant Award Summary

Stanfield Elementary School District 24 received a $136,154 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, through September 30, 2031. This award supports educational services for a school district serving rural and Native American student populations in Stanfield, Arizona, where federal land presence has reduced the local tax base. The Impact Aid Program provides financial assistance to local educational agencies (LEAs) adversely affected by federal activities, enabling them to maintain and enhance comprehensive K-12 educational services.

The funding enables Stanfield Elementary School District 24 to develop and sustain targeted educational initiatives, including after-school and summer programming that provides academic support through homework assistance, small group tutoring, and enrichment activities in STEM, music, arts and crafts, and sports. These services address the needs of underserved and at-risk student populations while supporting the district's mission to provide comprehensive educational services despite reduced local revenue capacity. The award demonstrates the district's ongoing participation in federal grant programs designed to support educational excellence in communities with limited tax bases due to federal land acquisition and Native American reservation presence.
