Additionally, Waubay School District receives sub-awards from the South Dakota Department of Education, including Title I funding for school improvement, National School Lunch Program (NSLP) grants, and Emergency School Relief (ESSER) funding. The most recent significant award is a $1,517,934 Impact Aid Program grant awarded in December 2024, which will support the district's educational programs through September 2030, highlighting its critical role in providing education to federally connected students.
