Federal Grant Award Summary

Independent School District 93 received a $115,217 Project Grant award 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 award supports the district's K-12 educational services in Carlton, Minnesota, compensating for reduced local tax revenue resulting from federal land presence in the district. The funding enables the district to maintain and enhance comprehensive educational programming including general instruction, special education, English language learning, school nutrition, career and technical education, teacher training, and technology integration.

The Impact Aid Program provides financial assistance to local educational agencies adversely affected by federal activities, particularly those with significant federal land holdings or military installations that diminish the local property tax base. This six-year award demonstrates the federal government's commitment to ensuring sustained educational capacity in communities where federal land acquisition has reduced traditional funding sources. The district, which has maintained continuous SAM.gov registration and consistently received federal education grants, will utilize these funds to support federally connected students and maintain core educational infrastructure throughout the performance period.
