The state Department of Education will be sending a U.S. Department of Education Federal Survey Card home with public school students for parents to complete beginning Wednesday.
The Impact Aid Program surveys allow the DOE to qualify for a partial reimbursement for educating federally connected students, such as children whose parents work or live on federal property. The program was created to assist school districts that lose tax revenues due to a federal presence. Funds go to local school districts, just like local property taxes, and can be used to hire teachers, purchase textbooks and computers, pay for utilities and more. Parents are urged to complete the surveys and return them to their schools as soon as possible.
Every public school has a 100-percent return rate goal and asks that parents complete and return the federal survey this week.Visit https://bit.ly/1UluF9I for more details on the Impact Aid Program.
