Federal Grant Award Summary

The Loleta Union Elementary School District received a $313,186 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, Title VII, Section 7003) effective October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2031. This funding supports comprehensive kindergarten through twelfth grade educational services designed to address the financial impact of federal activities on local tax bases. The award enables the district to deliver general academic instruction, special education, English language learning programs, school nutrition services, career and technical education, teacher professional development, and technology integration initiatives across its jurisdiction in Loleta, California.

Section 7003 of the Impact Aid Program specifically targets school districts where at least three percent or 400 federally connected children in average daily attendance reside on federal property, have parents employed on federal property, or have parents on active duty in the uniformed services. The funding recognizes that federally impacted school districts face constrained local revenue capacity and require sustained federal support to maintain educational quality and infrastructure. The award supports Loleta Union Elementary School District's ongoing commitment to educational excellence and ensures the district can continue providing essential educational services and opportunities to its student population.
