Impact aid program, title VII, section 7003

The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded Enterprise Board of Education, a public school district in Enterprise, Alabama, $850,348 under the Impact Aid program (CFDA 84.041) on October 1, 2025. Impact Aid provides financial assistance to local educational agencies where the presence of federally connected children—those living on Federal property or having a parent on active duty in the uniformed services—reduces the district's local tax base and revenue capacity. Under Section 7003, assistance flows to districts where at least three percent or 400 of total eligible federally connected children in average daily attendance live on or have parents working on Federal property or serving on active duty. The award covers the period October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2031 and supports the district's education of military-connected students in the Enterprise City Schools system. Payments are made annually to eligible LEAs on the basis of a statutory formula and are prorated if appropriations prove insufficient. The district must retain records supporting its payment amount for three years after the last payment for each fiscal year.
