Impact aid program, title VII, section 7003

The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded $371,188 to Seymour Community School District on October 1, 2025, under the Impact Aid program (CFDA 84.041, Title VII, Section 7003). The award funds educational services for federally connected children in the district through September 30, 2031. Seymour Community School District serves students in Seymour, Wisconsin, where the presence of federally connected children—those living on federal property or having a parent employed on federal property or on active duty in the uniformed services—reduces the district's local property tax base and creates financial burden on the local educational agency. Impact Aid replaces lost local revenue that would otherwise support the education of these children. Under Section 7003 eligibility, districts receive assistance where at least three percent or 400 of the total number of eligible federally connected children in average daily attendance live on or are otherwise connected to federal property. The district receives annual payments computed on a statutory formula basis.
