Impact aid program, title VII, section 7003

The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded Peach Springs School District 8 $2,023,922 on October 1, 2025, under the Impact Aid Program (CFDA 84.041), Title VII, Section 7003. The award runs through September 30, 2031, and supports educational services in Peach Springs, Arizona, located within the Hualapai Indian Reservation.

Section 7003 of Impact Aid provides financial assistance to school districts where federally connected children—those living on Federal property, including Indian lands, or having a parent working on Federal property or on active duty in the uniformed services—comprise at least three percent or 400 of total average daily attendance. The program compensates LEAs for lost local tax revenue resulting from Federal property exemptions. Peach Springs School District 8 serves a predominantly tribal community in a rural, economically challenged area. The district delivers comprehensive K-12 educational services with emphasis on Native American student support and addressing the unique challenges of a rural, tribal school environment. Educational initiatives supported by this and concurrent federal awards encompass general instruction, special education, English language learning, school nutrition, career and technical education, teacher training, technology integration, and academic support programs.
