The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded AZ Compass Schools Inc. $245,018 under the Impact Aid Program, Title VII, Section 7003 on October 1, 2025. The award period runs through September 30, 2031, with place of performance in Chandler, Arizona.
Section 7003 of Impact Aid provides financial assistance to school 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. The program replaces lost local revenue that would otherwise be available to local educational agencies to pay for the education of these children, whose presence on or connection to Federal property exempts that property from local property taxes.
AZ Compass Schools Inc., a non-profit educational organization, uses Impact Aid funding to support educational initiatives including intervention teachers who provide personalized academic instruction based on student assessment data and data-driven individualized learning approaches to improve student growth and proficiency on state assessments.
