Box Elder School District 13-G

Box Elder School District 13-G, located in Box Elder, Montana, is a U.S. local government entity registered in SAM.gov that provides comprehensive K-12 public education services. The school district, doing business as Box Elder High School, serves a rural community with significant federal land presence, which impacts its local tax base. As a government educational institution, Box Elder School District 13-G primarily receives federal grant awards to support its educational programming and maintain high-quality academic services. The district is specifically registered as a U.S. Local Government and School District, focusing on delivering public education to students in its jurisdiction.

The school district has consistently received federal grants from the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education, primarily through two key programs: the Impact Aid Program (Title VII, Section 7003) and the Small, Rural School Achievement Program. These grants have provided substantial financial support, including a notable $1,205,247 Project Grant awarded in December 2024 and a $121,071 Project Grant in November 2023. The funding supports comprehensive educational services such as general instruction, special education, English language learning, school nutrition, career and technical education, teacher training, technology integration, and supplemental academic initiatives. The Impact Aid Program specifically compensates the district for reduced local tax revenue due to significant federal land presence, enabling Box Elder School District 13-G to maintain robust educational programming despite financial challenges inherent in its rural setting. Over the past five years, the district's parent organization, Box Elder Public Schools, has secured over $9 million in prime federal grants, demonstrating its consistent ability to obtain federal funding to sustain and enhance educational services.
