Impact aid program, title VII, section 7003

The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded $229,766 to Summerville School District on October 1, 2025, under the Impact Aid program (CFDA 84.041, Section 7003). The award funds educational services for school-age children in the district, which is affected 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. Impact Aid replaces lost local revenue that school districts cannot access because Federal property is exempt from local property taxes.

The award supports comprehensive K-12 educational services in Tuolumne, California, with a period of performance from October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2031. Summerville School District, a local government entity, has a consistent history of federal grant awards from the Office of Elementary and Secondary Education, including prior support for the Small Rural School Achievement Program and Indian Education Formula Grants. The district applies Impact Aid funding across general instruction, special education, English language learning, school nutrition, career and technical education, teacher training, technology integration, and supplemental academic programs. Payments under Impact Aid are computed on a statutory formula basis and made annually to eligible local educational agencies.
