Impact aid program, title VII, section 7003

The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded Monroe City Schools $157,192 on October 1, 2025, under the Impact Aid Program, Title VII, Section 7003 (CFDA 84.041). The award runs through September 30, 2031, and supports educational services in Monroe, Louisiana. Section 7003 of Impact Aid provides financial assistance to school districts where at least three percent or 400 of the total number of eligible federally connected children in average daily attendance live on Federal property, including Indian lands, or have a parent who works on Federal property or is on active duty in the uniformed services. Monroe City Schools qualifies for this funding to offset the financial burden of educating federally connected children whose parents' federal employment or military service status reduces the district's local tax base. The school district receives annual payments computed under the statutory formula and is responsible for retaining records supporting the payment amount for three years after the last payment for each fiscal year.
