The NAFIS office announced that Congressman Cole is one of this year’s Friend of NAFIS Award Honorees, given his support for Impact Aid. His office has confirmed he will be able to accept the award in person at the NAFIS Breakfast Reception (additional details below). If you haven’t already registered, we hope you can attend the NAFIS Conference so there is a strong Oklahoma delegation in attendance!
On Tuesday, September 25, NAFIS Fall Conference attendees will visit Capitol Hill to advocate for Impact Aid. That morning, join NAFIS for a breakfast reception on the Hill celebrating congressional champions of the program.
The event will run 8:30-9:30am and provide a great opportunity to connect with NAFIS and other Impact Aid advocates before meeting with your representatives in Congress. OASIS will hold the time when scheduling our appointments with other other legislators.
Upcoming Events

Two Day FISEF School Business Officials Workshop November 8-9, 2018 Meeting Location: CCOSA Office, OKC
The conference theme acknowledges recent challenges to Impact Aid and reminds us of the need for the NAFIS Family to be unified and work collaboratively to support all federally impacted school districts and the children they educate.
Coming at the end of the federal government’s fiscal year, the conference provides the opportunity to remind your representatives how important Impact Aid is to your district and students and to request they fund it appropriately. You’ll also get up-to-the-minute projections on the mid-term elections, the chance to meet one-on-one with U.S. Department of Education staff, access to breakout sessions on pressing issues and time to connect with other members of the NAFIS Family. OASIS will schedule Hill visits with legislators for the Oklahoma delegation on Tuesday, Sept. 25, during the NAFIS conference. We need you there with us!
