Federal Impact Aid And Emergency For Updates October 9th - November 29th 2026

Category: Local News

St. Mary’s County Public Schools (SMCPS) is currently collecting Federal Impact Aid and Emergency Information Update forms.  Your cooperation in completing these forms no later than Friday, November 20, 2026, is greatly appreciated. 

 

The federal government provides funding to the public school system in lieu of paying taxes on federal property.  This funding is based on the number of students whose parent(s) or guardian(s) are federally connected. This includes active-duty military personnel and federal employees who work/telework or live on federal property. It is very important that SMCPS provides an accurate count to ensure we gain the maximum funds for your child’s education. All information is strictly confidential.

The SMCPS website has more guidance on how to access the Federal Impact Aid Survey.
