Federal Grant Award Summary

The Gresham School District received a $142,080.00 Project Grant award effective October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2031, 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). This funding supports the district's provision of comprehensive K-12 educational services to students in Gresham, Wisconsin, a community where federal activities have reduced the local tax base. The award specifically addresses the educational needs of federally connected children, including those residing on federal property or having parents employed on federal property or in active uniformed service.

Under this Impact Aid award, the Gresham School District will maintain and enhance core educational programming across general instruction, special education, English language learning, school nutrition, career and technical education, teacher training, and technology integration. The six-year performance period allows the district to sustain educational infrastructure and services that would otherwise be constrained by reduced local tax revenue due to federal land acquisition. As a local educational agency meeting the eligibility threshold of at least 3 percent or 400 federally connected children in average daily attendance, the district leverages this federal support to ensure equitable educational opportunities for its student population throughout the extended funding period.
