Federal Grant Award Summary

The Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded FT Cobb-Broxton School District I-167 a Project Grant of $196,531 under the Impact Aid program (CFDA 84.041), effective October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2031. This award provides financial assistance to replace lost local property tax revenue resulting from the federal government's acquisition of real property or the presence of federally connected children within the district's jurisdiction. The funding is distributed annually to eligible local educational agencies using a statutory formula to offset the tax base reduction that occurs when federal property is exempt from local property taxation.

As a Section 7003 Impact Aid recipient, FT Cobb-Broxton School District qualifies based on having at least three percent or 400 federally connected children in average daily attendance who either reside on federal property or have a parent employed on federal property or on active duty in the uniformed services. The grant enables the school district to maintain educational operations and services in Fort Cobb, Oklahoma, by compensating for the revenue loss attributable to these federally affected circumstances, thereby supporting the district's capacity to deliver comprehensive K-12 educational services to its student population.
