Impact aid program, title VII, section 7003

The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded $244,213 to Unified School District 260 (Derby Unified School District No 260) on October 1, 2025, under the Impact Aid Program, Title VII, Section 7003 (CFDA 84.041).

The award funds assistance to the school district, which serves a significant military-connected student population due to its proximity to McConnell Air Force Base. Section 7003 Impact Aid provides financial assistance to school districts where at least three percent or 400 of eligible federally connected children in average daily attendance live on Federal property or have a parent who works on Federal property or is on active duty in the uniformed services. The program replaces revenue lost to school districts because Federal property is exempt from local property taxes.

The award covers the period of performance from October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2031, with place of performance in Derby, Kansas. The assistance type is a Project Grant. Payments under Impact Aid are computed on the basis of the statutory formula and are made annually to eligible local educational agencies.
