Impact Aid Forms
You play a crucial role in securing this money just by completing and returning the form. Please take a few minutes to fill it out and return to the school as soon as possible even if you are not sure your employment qualifies. School personnel will vet the forms that qualify. Madison Schools Superintendent Dr. Dee Fowler and several parents explain the program in this brief video that was produced last year: https://youtu.be/qdvw4FqF1ps
So, what is Impact Aid? It is essentially money the federal government pays in lieu of taxes to schools that educate the children of federal workers. Simply working on federal property like on Redstone Arsenal (NASA, Army, etc.), a federal courthouse or for TVA, will qualify the district for this money no matter if it is a military, civil service or private contractor job. One form per child is required. We ask that you return these forms on Monday.
Thank you for helping us to better serve you. We must have a signed hard copy of an Impact Aid form for each child.
