Federal Programs

Overview

Mission

The mission of the Office of Federal Programs is to procure, manage and utilize federal funds to provide relevant, quality educational opportunities for all students to develop the skills necessary to reach their maximum potential as responsible, productive citizens and life-long learners.  The Office of Federal Programs also provides technical assistance, program monitoring, and resources to local educational agencies (LEA) to ensure that all children have an opportunity to obtain a high-quality education and to achieve proficiency on the state's high academic achievement standards. 

The Office of Federal Programs coordinates several compensatory education programs mandated by federal and state law. Holmes County Consolidated School District benefits from many of the educational programs funded through the federal government. This funding allows Holmes County Consolidated School District to offer additional professional development for staff, instruction, technology, parent involvement activities, and other critical services which are not provided through state and local education funds.
