Federal Grant Award Summary

Clearbrook-Gonvick Independent School District 2311 received a $100,815 Project Grant award from the 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 supports the district's provision of comprehensive K-12 educational services to the rural Clearbrook, Minnesota community, where federal land acquisition and federally connected student populations have reduced the local tax base.

The funding enables the district to deliver and enhance core educational services including general instruction, special education, English language learning, school nutrition, career and technical education, teacher training, and technology integration. Impact Aid Program funding is specifically designed to compensate local educational agencies for revenue losses resulting from federal activities—in this case, supporting districts where eligible federally connected children (those living on or with parents working on federal property or active-duty military service members) comprise at least 3 percent or 400 students in average daily attendance. The six-year project period allows the district to maintain educational quality and operational capacity despite the reduced local funding base characteristic of impact aid-eligible jurisdictions.
