IMPACT AID FEDERAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM SURVEY DUVAL COUNTY PUBLIC SCHOOLS October 20, 2014 Information Sheet What is Federal Impact Aid? FIA reimburses public school districts for the loss of traditional revenue sources due to a federal presence. This impact may take the form of dependents of military personnel or land taken off the tax rolls for military bases or public housing. School districts find themselves responsible for educating more students with fewer resources. Impact Aid was designed to provide money for these students. This program was begun in 1951 and has been reauthorized 15 times since then. Impact Aid has now been inserted into Public Law 103-382 Title VIII as part of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act. Many military parents of children in your school do, in fact, pay property taxes on their homes. However, tax revenue is not generated from the buildings in which they work; they do not generate sales tax revenue on commodities purchased on the base; and, in many cases they do not generate revenue from vehicle licenses and fees. We have found that there are instances where a parent is reluctant to complete some items on the FIA Survey which is needed by the district in order to receive Impact Aid funds. Parents may be concerned that this information request is a violation of their privacy. The following information may be helpful to share with them: Since Impact Aid payment is based upon certain information about each student, we ask you to complete the card for each of your children enrolled in our schools. We assure you that this information is the minimum required for securing available funds and does not violate security regulations. The information you provide will be treated confidentially with only those persons assigned to compiling and auditing this program having access to the forms. Your cooperation in providing this important information is appreciated and we thank you for continued support of Duval County Public Schools. As always, our thanks go out to the individuals in the schools who work hard each year in assisting our office with the Federal Impact Aid Assistance Program Survey. WE TRULY APPRECIATE YOUR EFFORTS! 1 INSTRUCTION SHEET FEDERAL IMPACT AID ASSISTANCE PROGRAM (FAP) SURVEY OCTOBER 20, 2014 The Federal Assistance Program Survey date is Monday, October 20, 2014.
