Scope and Contents

The East Charles Mix School District in Wagner, South Dakota is seeking a grant from the United States Congress to fund the construction of a new school facility. The district currently faces overcrowding and inadequate facilities, leading many Native American children to attend schools far from their homes. Despite multiple failed bond issues, the school board is determined to provide adequate classroom space and is requesting $2,728,497 in federal funds to supplement a proposed $900,000 bond issue. The district emphasizes the importance of education in developing students' potential and contributing to society.
