We will focus on the requirements for the annual Impact Aid survey that school districts use to count Federally connected children. The survey must be completed before the LEA submits the Section 7003 grant application due January 31.

This training is for State Educational Agency staff.  Annually, the Impact Aid Program requests data from State Educational Agencies that may be used to increase the payment to certain school districts in the state. This webinar will cover the data needed from states to provide a “generally comparable district” (GCD) local contribution rate increase and a “heavily impacted” payment increase under Section 7003(b)(2).

We will provide an overview of the data necessary to submit the annual Section 7002 grant application, as well as the payment calculation. Section 7002 school districts receive funds based on the number of eligible Federal acres within their boundaries. If you apply for Impact Aid based solely on a count of Federally connected children, this session is not for you.
