Impact Aid in Alaska
CFDA 84.041 — federal program obligations to Alaska
Total obligated
$578.0M
Awards
169
Impact Aid (CFDA 84.041) shows $566,924,338.87 in USAspending.gov obligations with Alaska as place of performance. One hundred sixty-nine awards sit behind that total. The join is an Education Department listing for federally connected students crossed with a state location field, not Alaska's entire school budget and not a count of students. Alaska's airport-improvement join (20.106) in this slice is a different overlay. The dollars are commitments, not Treasury outlays.

Alaska x 84.041 is an Impact Aid join, not an enrollment census
This page pairs CFDA 84.041, IMPACT AID, with Alaska place of performance. Impact Aid, in program language, compensates school districts for tax-base losses tied to federal property and federally connected students. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations: $566,924,338.87 on 169 awards. The extract does not list districts, military installations, or student counts. Treat the pair as a catalog intersection, not a ranking of which state is more federally burdened, and not a claim that 169 awards equal 169 districts.
Other Education listings — Title I, IDEA, or different Impact Aid sections if they use other CFDA numbers — sit outside $566,924,338.87 unless they also carry 84.041. Alaska also appears in this slice on bundled airport programs (CFDA 20.106). Mixing education and airport totals would invent a combined state figure the packet never computed. Correlation between this obligation sum and rural enrollment is not causation. Enrollment figures are not in the packet. Place of performance as Alaska locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $566,924,338.87 in the state treasury.
169 awards behind $566.9 million
Award count is a row count of assistance awards, including possible annual runs and modifications. It is not a census of school districts, schools, or students. Mean obligation is about $3.35 million if $566,924,338.87 were divided evenly across 169 lines — a mechanical ratio, not a typical district payment, and not a published per-pupil amount. The packet has no basic-support versus construction split inside Impact Aid.
One hundred sixty-nine lines are too many to narrate one by one. Sort the Alaska 84.041 overlay by amount to see concentration. This page will not invent district names. Open Impact Aid in Alaska for the stored table. Do not convert 169 into a map of Alaska school boards. The $566,924,338.87 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards. Inspect named lines rather than inferring a student headcount.
