Contact has been made with 0 Utah's Senate and House THE FUNDING in question is received by the district in the form of impact aid under the Federal Elementary and Secondary Act. It has been by passed in two versions-o- ne the House of Representatives and the other by the Senate Supt. Bernell Wrigley. Impact aid money comes to the district mainly in support of students living in the district whose parents work for federal installations such as Hill Air Force Base. The money is allocated to Davis and other districts nationwide to offset loss in property valuation not levied on federal facilities such as the base. That means the district receives less in actual tax dollars than it would if the base was a commercial fat ility, for example THE MONEY is at slake because of an apparent in Congress, Mr. Wrigley savs. The House bill seemed to support "A" and "B students and had for many years under the present funding since 1974 and the House set it up how it had been but the Senate made cuts in the tier system " "A students are those living in federal facilities with their parents while "B" students, for which Davis receives most of the federal impart aid funding, live wiih parents who work at federal installations THE DISTRICT would stand to lose most money if Tier 2 were dropped. Supt Wrigley says. The tier system refers io various areas funded under the act. "The Senate thought it was eliminating Tier 3 but it was actually Tier 2.
