Impact aid program, title VII, section 7002

Adams County School District 14 received $528,579 in federal funding through the Impact Aid Program (CFDA 84.041), administered by the Office of Elementary and Secondary Education. This Project Grant award, effective June 5, 2025, through September 30, 2030, provides financial assistance to the school district to support comprehensive K-12 educational services in Commerce City, Colorado. The Impact Aid Program targets local educational agencies adversely affected by federal activities that reduce the local tax base, such as federal land acquisitions or military installations. The funding enables Adams County School District 14 to maintain and enhance educational services for its student population, which includes a significant number of federally connected children.

The grant supports general instruction, special education, English language learning, school nutrition programs, career and technical education, teacher training, and technology integration initiatives. These services address the educational needs of the district's diverse student body and help offset revenue losses resulting from reduced local property tax assessments due to federal land presence. The district has established a consistent history of Impact Aid funding, with recent awards totaling over $3.3 million across multiple fiscal periods, demonstrating ongoing federal support for educational services in this federally impacted school district.
