Redwater Independent School District

Redwater Independent School District is a local government education entity based in Redwater, Texas, registered with the federal government since April 2009 to receive federal awards. As a school district, it provides comprehensive K-12 educational services to its student population, leveraging federal grant funding to enhance and maintain educational programming across general instruction, special education, English language learning, school nutrition, career and technical education, teacher training, and technology integration.

The district has established a consistent pattern of federal grant funding through the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education, serving as the prime awardee for multiple Impact Aid Program grants under Title VII, Section 7002. The most recent Impact Aid grant of $272,287 runs from October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2031, with prior awards dated December 2024, December 2023, February 2023, and February 2022, all providing financial assistance to offset the impact of federal activities on the local tax base. Beyond its primary Impact Aid funding, the district receives substantial sub-awards from the Texas Education Agency across multiple federal education programs, including IDEA-B funding to support free appropriate public education for eligible students with disabilities ages 3-21; Title I, Part A supplemental resources targeting schools with high concentrations of low-income students; Title II, Part A grants focused on improving teacher and principal quality and effectiveness; and emergency relief funding through ESSER II and ESSER III programs to address COVID-19 pandemic impacts on school operations and student academic and social-emotional needs. These sub-awards, distributed through the Texas Education Agency as the prime grantee, demonstrate the district's comprehensive approach to leveraging federal resources across special education, compensatory education, educator quality, and emergency pandemic response initiatives to serve its student population effectively.
