Adel School District 21

Adel School District 21, doing business as Adel Elementary School, is a U.S. local government school district recipient of federal education grants from the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education (OESE) and receives sub-awards distributed through the Oregon Department of Education, operating in a 57% sub-recipient, 43% prime-recipient posture.

Adel School District 21 is headquartered in Lakeview, Oregon and operates as a public school district. The district acts primarily as a sub-recipient of federal education funding flowing from the Oregon Department of Education, which serves as the prime grantee for multiple federal education programs. As a prime recipient, Adel School District 21 participates directly in the Small, Rural School Achievement Program, a formula grant administered by OESE; the district has received annual awards under this program on July 1 of each year from 2022 through 2026, with the most recent award dated July 1, 2026 for the period through September 30, 2027.

The district's sub-award portfolio spans special education, teacher quality, and school infrastructure. Adel receives sub-awards from the Oregon Department of Education under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) Part B 611 (grants for special education services), IDEA Part B 619 (preschool special education), Supporting Effective Instruction State Grants (teacher quality and professional development), the American Rescue Plan Elementary and Secondary Schools Emergency Relief Fund (ARP-ESSER), and lead testing of drinking water for schools. Recent sub-awards include those dated August 6, 2026 for Supporting Effective Instruction State Grants, October 7, 2025 for IDEA Part B 611, and October 31, 2024 for IDEA Part B 611.

Customer concentration is narrow and education-focused. The Office of Elementary and Secondary Education and the Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services together account for 100% of the district's award count across the source data, with the Environmental Protection Agency Region 10 representing a single award for lead testing. Total combined dollars obligated across all 46 awards (prime and sub) stands at $594 thousand over the source period. Activity has declined in recent years, with four awards in 2022 declining to three awards each in 2025 and 2026. One award faces ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months.
