Federal Grant Award Summary

The Summerville School District received a Project Grant award of $214,717 from the Office of Elementary and Secondary Education under the Impact Aid Program (CFDA 84.041), effective October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2031. This funding supports the school district in maintaining and enhancing comprehensive K-12 educational services in Tuolumne, California, where the local tax base has been adversely affected by federal activities. The Impact Aid Program specifically targets local educational agencies (LEAs) serving federally connected children—those living on federal property, including Indian lands, or having parents employed on federal property or on active duty in the uniformed services.

The grant funds educational initiatives across multiple service areas, including general instruction, special education, English language learning, school nutrition, career and technical education, teacher training, and technology integration. As a rural LEA meeting Impact Aid Program eligibility criteria under Section 7003 through enrollment of federally connected students, Summerville School District will utilize this award to support educational programming and operational needs that strengthen student outcomes in a community with reduced local revenue capacity.
