Any point in filling out the Federal Impact Aid Survey?

[Anonymous]

Since FCPS has decided they don't need Federal money I guess there is no point bothering with this form.

I never fill it out. None of their business

Please fill them out. The school district gets money for all children of active duty them trying military and federal government workers. It’s free money. It is not impacted by the shut down. It’s important please fill them out.

the only reason to do it is to avoid them nagging you to do it

People shocked by the shitty attitudes of kids and students “these days” must never read threads like these. The trees from which the apples fall…

Nope.

Not as long as they are involved in this frivolous, wasteful lawsuit.

Except FCPS does not direct that money to the schools with military connected atudents as intended.

It goes into the general fund, away from the military connected students.

FCPS is wasting money on political lawsuits and unnecessary rezoning/consultants right now. That is where their priorities lie, not with students.

If the impact aide money went directly into the classrooms, or proportionally to the schools with military connected students, that would be one thing. But why would anyone fill out the form when the money is just going to go to things completely unrelated to military connected kids or the students at large?

General fund money goes to all the schools. General fund money funds those schools where the military and fed students are attending. You sound like the crazy people who don't pay taxes because some of it is spent on things you don't personally use.

It's one of the few ways parents can get back at FCPS by hitting them in the pocket.

It is intended to go to the school system that is funding resources for all these extra military kids without getting tax money to support them. Military are exempt from things like the car tax while deployed here. It is not special money earmarked for only the military kids. It is meant to offset the extra expenses being incurred that are already not being supported.

I’ve had our HS not respond simple emails - like a parking pass question to the security office. I’ll fill out their forms when they can respond to my emails. It’s ridiculous.
