Impact aid program, title VII, section 7003

The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded $375,376.00 to the Board of Education of Calvert County Inc., doing business as Calvert County Public Schools, on October 1, 2025, under the Impact Aid Program, Title VII, Section 7003 (CFDA 84.041).

Section 7003 of Impact Aid provides financial assistance to school districts where at least three percent or 400 eligible federally connected children in average daily attendance live on Federal property, including Indian lands, and/or have a parent who works on Federal property or is on active duty in the uniformed services. The award helps replace revenue lost to local property tax exemptions on Federal property that would otherwise fund district operations.

The recipient is a local government entity and school district based in Prince Frederick, Maryland, where performance occurs. The period of performance runs from October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2031. Payments under the Impact Aid program are computed on a statutory formula basis and made annually to eligible LEAs; if appropriations prove insufficient, payments are prorated. The district must retain records supporting its payment amount for three years after the last payment for each fiscal year.
