Apple Springs ISD

Apple Springs ISD, a public school district in Apple Springs, Texas, is a federal grant recipient (61% of recent awards as prime recipient) that receives supplemental education funding through formula grants and pass-through sub-grants from the Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education. As a U.S. government entity classified as a local school district, Apple Springs ISD does not compete for federal contracts and holds no contractor certification; its federal footprint consists exclusively of elementary and secondary education grants flowing from the federal government through state intermediaries.

Apple Springs ISD's federal activity centers on two named programs. The district holds prime recipient status on the Small, Rural School Achievement Program, a formula grant funded by the Office of Elementary and Secondary Education, with awards issued annually on July 1 in 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025, and 2026, each running through the following September 30. The district also receives pass-through sub-grants from the Texas Education Agency, the state prime recipient, primarily under Title I, Part A of the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESEA). Sub-grant awards documented in the source include Title I, Part A supplemental funding for schools serving high concentrations of low-income students, dated from August 2022 through July 2026, and a LIFT Add-On: School Improvement PLC Supports sub-grant awarded March 24, 2026, focused on targeted implementation support for schools participating in the LIFT program and identified for school improvement under federal accountability.

The district's federal grant footprint is narrow by design. The Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education accounts for 97% of the 33 documented awards, with no diversification across other agencies. Total dollars obligated across all awards stands at $2.2 million. Activity has remained flat at three awards per year since 2022. Only one award (the Small, Rural School Achievement Program sub-grant awarded July 11, 2026) faces ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, indicating minimal recompete exposure in that window. The district's engagement model is entirely pass-through and compliance-focused rather than procurement-driven; as a public school district, Apple Springs ISD functions as an implementing entity for federal education policy rather than as a vendor or service provider to other federal customers.
