Federal Grant Award Summary

Yakima County School District (District) #202 in Toppenish, Washington received a Project Grant award of $516,890.00 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, with a completion date of September 30, 2031. This award provides financial assistance to support comprehensive K-12 educational services for the District, which serves a substantial population of Native American students on or near the Yakima Indian Reservation.

The Impact Aid funding enables the District to maintain and enhance educational services across general instruction, special education, English language acquisition, school nutrition, career and technical education, teacher training, and technology integration. As a local educational agency adversely affected by federal land presence and Indian reservation territory that reduces the local tax base, the District utilizes this award to ensure continuity of educational programming for federally connected children, including those residing on federal/Indian lands and children of federal employees and active-duty military members. The six-year performance period allows for sustained support of the District's educational initiatives serving its economically disadvantaged student population.
