Project Grant S041B264251

The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded Vian Public Schools $302,059 on October 1, 2025, under the Impact Aid Program, Title VII, Section 7003 (CFDA 84.041). The award funds educational services for students living on Federal property or having a parent employed on Federal property or on active duty in the uniformed services. Vian Public Schools, a local school district in Vian, Oklahoma, serves the educational needs of the community with an emphasis on supporting Native American students. The award period runs from October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2031. Impact Aid provides financial assistance to school districts where the presence of federally connected children creates a financial burden because Federal property is exempt from local property taxation, reducing the tax base available to support education. Under Section 7003, assistance is provided to 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.
