Local Educational Agencies (LEAs) that receive Section 7003 funds and have schools that serve at least 15% military-connected children may be eligible for a Military-Connected Schools Construction, Modernization and Facilities Maintenance Program Grant. For more information about eligibility and requirements, please visit https://dodeagrants.org/FundingOpportunities. Applications are available now on Grants.gov and are due May 22, 2026.  Please contact dodea.grants@dodea.edu with any questions.

This is a different funding opportunity from the FY 2026 Impact Aid Discretionary Construction grants under Section 7007(b). We expect to issue applications for that program, which will be open to LEAs serving Uniformed Services and/or Indian Lands children, this summer.
