Federal Grant Award Summary

Madison City Schools received a $361,637 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, with a completion date of September 30, 2031. This award provides financial assistance to the school district, which serves the Triana, Alabama area and has been adversely impacted by federal activities that reduce the local tax base. The Impact Aid Program specifically supports local educational agencies (LEAs) where at least 3 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 supports Madison City Schools' comprehensive K-12 educational services, including general instruction, special education, English language learning, school nutrition, career and technical education, teacher training, and technology integration. As a district serving military-connected students in a federally impacted area, the grant enables the district to maintain and enhance educational programs that address the unique needs of highly mobile military families while supporting students from communities affected by federal installations. The award aligns with Madison City Schools' demonstrated federal funding capacity, evidenced by prior Impact Aid grants and substantial Department of Defense Education Activity grants supporting STEM career pathway development and academic interventions.
