Impact aid program, title VII, section 7002

The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded Gatesville Independent School District $132,032 on October 1, 2025, under the Impact Aid Program, Title VII, Section 7002 (CFDA 84.041). The award runs through September 30, 2031, and supports comprehensive K–12 educational services in Gatesville, Texas, including general instruction, special education, English language learning, school nutrition, career and technical education, teacher training, and technology integration. Section 7002 provides financial assistance to school districts where federal acquisition of real property has reduced the local tax base, thereby reducing revenue available for education. Gatesville ISD qualifies because an aggregate of 10 percent or more of assessed valuation of real property in the district 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. This is a Project Grant assistance type with annual payments computed on a statutory formula basis.
