Impact aid program, title VII, section 7003

The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded $295,781 to Fremont County School District 25 on October 1, 2025, under the Impact Aid Program, Title VII, Section 7003 (CFDA 84.041).

The award supports educational services for federally connected children—those living on Federal property including Indian lands or with a parent employed on Federal property or on active duty in the uniformed services—in a district where at least three percent or 400 such children are in average daily attendance. Fremont County School District 25 serves a significant population of Native American students across multiple school sites in Riverton, Wyoming.

The period of performance runs from October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2031. Impact Aid replaces local revenue lost because Federal property is exempt from local property taxes, offsetting the financial burden on local educational agencies educating federally connected children. Payments are computed on the basis of the statutory formula and are prorated if appropriations are insufficient. The district must retain records supporting its payment amount for three years after the last payment for each fiscal year.
