Impact aid program, title VII, section 7003

The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded $749,707 to Chula Vista Elementary School District on October 1, 2025, under the Impact Aid Program (CFDA 84.041, Section 7003). The award runs through September 30, 2031, and supports general instruction, special education, English language learning, school nutrition, career and technical education, teacher training, and technology integration for federally connected students in Chula Vista, California. Section 7003 Impact Aid assists school districts where at least three percent or 400 federally connected children in average daily attendance live on Federal property or have a parent working on Federal property or on active duty in the uniformed services. The award replaces lost local tax revenue that would otherwise fund education for these students, whose presence on Federal property exempts that property from local property tax assessments. Payments under the program are computed on a statutory formula basis and made annually to eligible local educational agencies.
