Federal Grant Award Summary

Fort Totten Public School (operating as Four Winds Community High School) received a $1.37M Project Grant 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 funding supports comprehensive kindergarten through twelfth grade educational services to a federally impacted school district serving a rural North Dakota community with a significant population of federally connected children, including those residing on federal property and children of active-duty military personnel.

The funding enables the school district to deliver general academic instruction, special education services, English language learning programs, school nutrition, career and technical education, teacher professional development, and technology integration initiatives. Impact Aid Program funding is specifically designed to assist local educational agencies adversely affected by federal activities that reduce local tax bases, with Section 7003 assistance directed toward districts where at least three percent or 400 federally connected children in average daily attendance live on federal property or have parents employed on federal property or on active duty in the uniformed services.
