Federal Grant Award Summary

Muscogee County School District received a $496,009 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 provides financial assistance to support comprehensive K-12 educational services for the district's federally connected student population, including those residing on federal property or having parents employed on federal property or in active military service. The funding enables the district to maintain and enhance general instruction, special education, English language learner (ELL) programs, school nutrition services, career and technical education, teacher training, and technology integration initiatives.

The Impact Aid Program under Title VII, Section 7003 is designed to offset the reduced local tax base resulting from federal property acquisition and presence. Muscogee County School District qualifies for assistance as an eligible local educational agency (LEA) with a significant population of federally connected children in average daily attendance (ADA) living on federal property or with parents working on federal property. The six-year performance period allows the district to sustain and enhance educational programming across multiple service areas, directly supporting student achievement outcomes in a region where federal activities have diminished traditional tax revenue sources.
