Federal Grant Award Summary

Westville Public Schools received a $198,681 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), effective October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2031. This award supports the school district's delivery of comprehensive K-12 educational services to federally connected student populations, including Native American students and children of federal employees or military personnel residing in the Westville, Oklahoma area. The funding enables the district to maintain and enhance educational programming across general instruction, special education, English language learner services, and related student support services in a jurisdiction where federal land presence has reduced the local tax base.

The Impact Aid Program provides financial assistance to local educational agencies adversely affected by federal activities that diminish local property tax revenues. Westville Public Schools qualifies under Section 7003 of Title VII, ESEA, meeting the three percent threshold of federally connected children in average daily attendance living on federal property, including Indian lands, or having parents employed on federal property or on active duty in the uniformed services. The six-year performance period reflects the sustained nature of this formula-based assistance, which is computed according to statutory formulas and supports the district's continued capacity to deliver equitable educational services to its diverse student population.
