Impact aid program, title VII, section 7003

The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded Cabot School District 4 Inc. (doing business as Cabot Public Schools) $103,374 on October 1, 2025, under the Impact Aid program, Title VII, Section 7003 (CFDA 84.041).

Cabot Public Schools educates federally connected children—those living on Federal property or having a parent employed on Federal property or on active duty in the uniformed services—whose presence reduces the district's local tax base. Impact Aid compensates for lost local revenue by providing financial assistance to school districts where at least three percent or 400 of the total eligible federally connected children in average daily attendance live or have a parent working on Federal property.

The award funds educational services and programs designed to enhance student achievement across Cabot Public Schools' school system, including personnel salaries for teachers and support staff, professional development, instructional materials, speech and occupational therapy services, tutoring programs, and technology improvements. Performance occurs in Cabot, Arkansas, with a period of performance extending through September 30, 2031. Cabot Public Schools has received five successive prime awards under Section 7003 since January 2022, demonstrating recurring annual funding through the program.
