About grants for education

Education grants fund schools, teachers, students, and learning programs at every level. The Department of Education distributes billions annually through formula and competitive grants, while foundations like Gates, Walton, and Dell support innovation in K-12 and higher education. State agencies add another layer of funding for local education initiatives.

What federal grants are available for schools?

Major federal education grants include Title I (for high-poverty schools), IDEA (special education), Title III (English learners), 21st Century Community Learning Centers (after-school), and competitive grants like Magnet Schools Assistance and Education Innovation and Research (EIR). The Department of Education publishes a forecast of upcoming grant competitions annually.
