Impact aid program, title VII, section 7003

The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded Owens Valley Unified School District $194,910 under the Impact Aid Program (CFDA 84.041, Title VII, Section 7003) on October 1, 2025, for the period of performance through September 30, 2031.

Section 7003 of the Impact Aid program provides financial assistance to school districts where at least three percent or 400 of the total number of eligible federally connected children in average daily attendance live on Federal property, including Indian lands, and/or have a parent who works on Federal property or is on active duty in the uniformed services. The program replaces lost local revenue that would otherwise be available to local educational agencies educating these children, as Federal property is exempt from local property taxes.

Owens Valley Unified School District, a local government educational entity serving rural Inyo County, California, primarily uses Impact Aid funding to support comprehensive K–12 educational services including general instruction, special education, English language learning, school nutrition, career and technical education, teacher training, and technology integration. The district's place of performance is Independence, California.
