Federal Grant Award Summary

Bellevue Public Schools received a $2,402,664 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, Title VII, Section 7003) effective October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2031. This award supports comprehensive K-12 educational services for the district, which serves a significant military-connected student population due to its proximity to Offutt Air Force Base. The funding enables the provision of general instruction, special education services, English language learning programs, school nutrition services, and career and technical education across the district's schools.

The Impact Aid Program provides financial assistance to local educational agencies adversely affected by federal activities that reduce local tax revenue. Bellevue Public Schools qualifies under Section 7003, which targets districts where at least three percent or 400 eligible federally connected children in average daily attendance live on federal property, have parents working on federal property, or have parents on active duty in the uniformed services. The six-year funding cycle supports the district's educational priorities, including academic interventions, counseling services, technology integration, educator professional development, and specialized programming for military-connected and diverse student populations with varying learning needs.
