Congressman Gonzalez Announces Over $170 Million in Preliminary Title I Funding for South Texas Schools

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congressman Vicente Gonzalez (TX-34) announced that school districts in the 34th Congressional District of Texas are expected to receive an increase of Title I formula funds from previous years, with a total of $171,243,659 in Fiscal Year (FY25). The final allocation totals will be released by the U.S. Department of Education in the summer of 2025.
Due to the uncertainty regarding the Trump Administration’s actions to abolish the U.S. Department of Education, the status and dissemination of Title I funds remain unclear.
“Title I funds are crucial for underserved communities across the country and in South Texas,” said Congressman Gonzalez. “These federal funds are used by public school systems in TX-34 to ensure all children, regardless of their family’s wealth or background, can have the education necessary to succeed in life. We must continue to fight for Title I funds and ensure these get properly distributed to our schools, our teachers, and our students.”
