Impact Aid programs and grants are designed to assist local school districts that enroll federally connected students.

The federal presence in our area and the significant tax exemptions available to federally connected personnel, businesses, and agencies have qualified Alamogordo Public Schools (APS) to be eligible for federal Impact Aid grants.

Impact Aid programs and grants are designed to assist local school districts that enroll federally connected students. The grants from these programs will become part of APS' general operating budget and are critical to ensuring that all children in the APS district receive an excellent education.

APS uses the Student-Parent Survey for Federal Impact Aid to identify federally connected students and to support our request for Impact Aid resources.  The survey will be distributed to all APS families via PowerSchool by the second quarter of each school year. 

For each school-aged child in your household, please complete, sign, date, and return the survey by the stated due date. If sections 1 and 2 of the survey do not apply to you, just check the boxes in Section 3. APS staff will process the information with the utmost confidentiality. 

For questions regarding the Student-Parent Survey for Federal Impact Aid, please call Let's Talk! at 575-812-8573. Additional information about Impact Aid programs and grants is available on the U.S. Department of Education's website.
