The DoDEA Grant Program


Background

In Fiscal Year 2007, DoDEA received authority in the John Warner National Defense Authorization Act to work collaboratively with the U.S. Department of Education in efforts to ease the transition of military students from attendance in DoDEA schools to attendance in schools local education agencies (LEAs) that educate military students.

One aspect of assistance is the authority to issue grants for programs that enhance student achievement -- including grants for science, technology, engineering, and/or mathematics (STEM) initiatives. The grant program provides assistance to support quality programs and strategies to improve academic achievement and learning outcomes of children of military members. The DoDEA Educational Partnership promotes quality education, seamless transitions, and deployment support through outreach and partnership development.
