Federal Impact Aid

Federal Impact Aid is a program designed to assist school districts that serve areas affected by federal activities, such as military bases or Indian lands. These districts often have a high number of students whose families do not pay local property taxes, which can limit funding for public schools. Impact Aid provides financial support to ensure that these schools can maintain quality education and services despite the lack of local funding sources. The program helps to bridge the funding gap and ensure equitable educational opportunities for all students in impacted areas.
