Impact aid program, title VII, section 7003

The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded Liberty County Board of Education $3.08 million on October 1, 2025, under the Impact Aid Program, Title VII, Section 7003 (CFDA 84.041), a Project Grant that runs through September 30, 2031.

Section 7003 of Impact Aid compensates school districts for reduced local tax revenue caused by the presence of federally connected children—those living on Federal property or with parents employed on Federal property or on active duty in the uniformed services. Liberty County Board of Education, based in Hinesville, Georgia, serves over 13,000 students, approximately 16 percent of whom are military-connected, reflecting the district's proximity to Fort Stewart military base and the highest concentration of veterans in Georgia. The district uses Impact Aid funding to support general instruction, special education, English language learning, career and technical education, teacher training, and technology integration across its K-12 system.

Performance occurs in Hinesville, Georgia. The obligated amount is $3.08 million. Impact Aid payments are made annually to eligible LEAs on the basis of a statutory formula, prorated if appropriations are insufficient.
