Construction Program provides grants to eligible Impact Aid school 
districts for emergency repairs and modernization of school 
facilitates. The eligible Impact Aid school districts have a limited 
ability to raise revenues for capital improvements because they have

Discretionary Construction Program assists these LEAs.
