Impact aid program, title VII, section 7003

The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded the City of New York Board of Education $4.663 million on October 1, 2025, under the Impact Aid program (CFDA 84.041, Title VII, Section 7003). The award funds assistance to the school district where federally connected children—including children living on federal property and children with parents employed on federal property or on active duty in the uniformed services—create a financial burden on the local educational agency by reducing its tax base. The Impact Aid program replaces lost local revenue that would otherwise be available to compensate for the absence of property tax collections on tax-exempt federal land within the district's boundaries. The award covers the period October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2031, with place of performance in Brooklyn Heights, New York. The City of New York Board of Education, through its Division of Revenue Operations, administers the largest public school district in the United States, serving approximately one million students annually across New York City's K–12 public education system.
