Impact aid program, title VII, section 7003

The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded $2.411 million to Skyline Gila River Schools LLC on October 1, 2025, under the Impact Aid program (CFDA 84.041, Title VII, Section 7003).

Skyline Gila River Schools LLC, a school district located in Chandler, Arizona, received this Project Grant to support educational services for students whose presence creates a financial burden on the district. Section 7003 Impact Aid provides 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 fund education, since Federal property is exempt from local property taxes.

The award obligates $2.411 million with a period of performance running from October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2031. Work is performed in Chandler, Arizona. Payments under Impact Aid are computed on a statutory formula basis and made annually to eligible districts. The district must retain records supporting its payment amount for three years after the last payment for each fiscal year.
