The award supports K-12 educational services for a school district affected by federal property acquisition. Section 7002 assistance is provided to districts where an aggregate of 10 percent or more of assessed real property valuation has been acquired by the federal government since 1938 and the district is not being substantially compensated by revenue from activities on the eligible federal property. Loogootee Community School, located in Loogootee, Indiana, meets Impact Aid eligibility criteria based on reduced local tax base resulting from federal acquisition of real property within the district.
The period of performance runs from October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2031. Place of performance is Loogootee, Indiana. This is the school corporation's most recent award in a series of Impact Aid grants received since February 2021, which collectively support general instruction, special education, English language learner programs, school nutrition services, career and technical education, teacher professional development, and technology integration. The award is classified as a Project Grant, an assistance type providing direct financial support to eligible local educational agencies to replace lost local revenue from tax-exempt federal property.
