Impact aid program, title VII, section 7003

The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded Round Valley Unified School District $1.801807 million on October 1, 2025, under the Impact Aid Program, Title VII, Section 7003 (CFDA 84.041).

Round Valley Unified School District serves Covelo, California, a rural area with a significant Native American population. The award addresses financial burdens on the local educational agency created by the presence of federally connected children—those living on Federal property or having a parent employed on Federal property or on active duty in the uniformed services. Section 7003 assistance is provided to districts where at least three percent or 400 of the total number of eligible federally connected children in average daily attendance live on or are connected to Federal property. The funds replace lost local revenue that would otherwise be available through property taxes on Federal land exempt from local taxation.

The period of performance runs from October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2031. Performance takes place in Covelo, California. Payments under Impact Aid are computed on the basis of a statutory formula and are made annually to eligible local educational agencies. The assistance type is a project grant.
