Impact aid program, title VII, section 7003

The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded Lapwai School District #341 $2.951 million under the Impact Aid Program (CFDA 84.041) on October 1, 2025. The award runs through September 30, 2031 and replaces lost local revenue resulting from the Federal acquisition of real property and the presence of federally connected children on Indian lands that are exempt from local property taxes. Lapwai School District #341 serves approximately 26 American Indian tribal affiliations across kindergarten through twelfth grade from its location on the Nez Perce Indian Reservation in Lapwai, Idaho. The Impact Aid program provides financial assistance to school districts where the tax base is reduced by Federal activities, including districts where at least three percent or 400 federally connected children in average daily attendance live on Federal property or have a parent employed on Federal property or on active duty in the uniformed services. Payments are computed on a statutory formula basis and made annually to eligible local educational agencies.
