Impact aid program, title VII, section 7003

The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded $588,261 to Valley County Treasurer on October 1, 2025, under the Impact Aid Program, Title VII, Section 7003 (CFDA 84.041), a Project Grant assistance type. Performance runs through September 30, 2031, with work performed in Glasgow, Montana.

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. The program replaces lost local revenue that would otherwise be available to local educational agencies to pay for the education of these children, whose presence on tax-exempt Federal property reduces the district's tax base.

Valley County Treasurer, the parent organization for Valley County and its subsidiaries, serves as the prime recipient. The county has received repeated Impact Aid project grants from the Department of Education since February 2021 to support K-12 educational services in areas impacted by Federal activities.
