Impact aid program, title VII, section 7003

The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded Sweetwater County School District Number One $103,546 under the Impact Aid program (CFDA 84.041, Title VII, Section 7003) on October 1, 2025. The award provides financial assistance to the school district to offset educational costs resulting from the presence of federally connected children—those living on Federal property or with parents employed on Federal property or on active duty in the uniformed services—who reduce the district's local property tax base. The district is located in Rock Springs, Wyoming. The period of performance runs from October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2031. Under Section 7003 of Impact Aid, assistance is available 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 and/or have a parent who works on Federal property or is on active duty in the uniformed services. Payments are made annually to eligible local educational agencies based on a statutory formula and are prorated if appropriations prove insufficient.
