A third of students in CPSD are military connected. Of those, more than 25% live on Joint Base Lewis-McChord. CPSD receives Impact Aid funding from the federal government to help offset the loss of property taxes from military families living on base.
Impact Aid funds provide enriching educational experiences for students. They also ensure access to library books, after-school activities, athletics and more.
CPSD has produced a short video to show the importance of Impact Aid for students. Learn more about the art programs, technology and advance placement courses available to students due to Impact Aid.
