Hozho Academy

Hozho Academy is a U.S. local government school district located in Gallup, New Mexico, registered in the System for Award Management (SAM.gov) since March 2021. As an educational institution serving the local community, the academy is primarily focused on providing comprehensive K-12 educational services to students in the region. The organization has successfully secured federal grant awards that support its educational mission, demonstrating its capacity to receive and manage federal funding for educational programming.

Through its federal grant awards, Hozho Academy has received funding from the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education under two distinct programs. The first is the Indian Education Formula Grants to Local Educational Agencies (LEAs), awarded on July 1, 2025, for the period ending June 30, 2026. The second and more substantial award is a $433,430 Impact Aid Program grant (CFDA 84.041) spanning from December 2024 to September 2030. This grant supports comprehensive educational services including general instruction, special education, English language learning, school nutrition, career and technical education, teacher training, technology integration, and supplemental academic initiatives. Additionally, the academy has received a sub-grant from the State of New Mexico Public Education Department under the Title I program, further expanding its federal funding portfolio. These grants are specifically designed to help the school district address challenges related to significant federal land presence, military installations, or Native American reservations that impact the local tax base.
