Impact aid program, title VII, section 7003

The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded Wichita Falls Independent School District $166,319 on October 1, 2025, under the Impact Aid Program, Title VII, Section 7003 (CFDA 84.041).

The award supports financial assistance to the school district based on the presence of federally connected children—those living on Federal property and those with parents employed on Federal property or on active duty in the uniformed services—whose enrollment creates a financial burden on the district by reducing the local tax base available for education funding. Section 7003 provides assistance to districts where at least three percent or 400 of the total number of eligible federally connected children in average daily attendance live on or have a parent working on Federal property or serving in the uniformed services.

The period of performance runs from October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2031. Performance takes place in Wichita Falls, Texas 76301. Wichita Falls ISD is a local government entity and public school system that has maintained federal grant engagement since 2007, administering a portfolio of federal awards addressing Title I low-income student support, special education services under IDEA Part B, English Language Learner programs, career and technical education, and homeless education assistance, among other federal programs.
