Federal Grant Award Summary

The Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded $520,253.00 to Humboldt County School District under the Impact Aid Program (CFDA 84.041) effective October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2031. This Project Grant supports the district's provision of comprehensive K-12 educational services to approximately 3,500 students in Winnemucca, Nevada. Under Section 7003 of Title VII of the Impact Aid Program, the funding addresses the reduced local tax base resulting from federal land presence and federally connected populations within the district's boundaries, enabling the district to maintain and enhance general instruction, special education, English language learning, career and technical education, and related support services.

The award recognizes Humboldt County School District's significant population of federally connected children—those residing on federal property or having parents employed on federal installations—and provides essential financial assistance to ensure educational equity and service delivery in areas where federal activities have diminished local revenue capacity. The six-year performance period allows the district to sustain and expand its comprehensive educational programming to serve both general student populations and specialized populations including Native American students and military-connected families.
