Federal Grant Award Summary

Elevate Elementary School received a Project Grant award of $580,082 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 award supports the delivery of comprehensive K-12 educational services to students in San Diego, California, including general instruction, special education, English language learning, school nutrition services, career and technical education, teacher training, and technology integration. The Impact Aid Program provides financial assistance to local educational agencies adversely affected by federal activities, such as federal land acquisitions that reduce local tax bases or the presence of military installations. Section 7003 specifically targets school districts where at least three percent or 400 federally connected children in average daily attendance reside on federal property or have parents employed on federal property or on active duty in the uniformed services.

As a non-profit charter school with sustained federal funding activity since 2016, Elevate Elementary School has demonstrated consistent capability to meet federal compliance requirements while serving disadvantaged student populations. The organization supplements this prime award funding with over $1.5 million in sub-awards from the California Department of Education, which support targeted initiatives for high-poverty schools, charter school expansion, pandemic response education programs, and academic support for at-risk students.
