Archway Classical Academy-Cicero

Archway Classical Academy-Cicero, a tax-exempt nonprofit organization based in Phoenix, Arizona, operates as a prime recipient and sub-recipient of federal education grants from the Department of Education, with no federal contract prime or subcontractor footprint. The organization receives formula grants directly and sub-grants flowing through the Arizona Department of Education under Title I, Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), and Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief (ESSER) programs.

Archway's grant activity centers on K–12 education delivery. As a prime recipient, the organization receives annual formula grants under the Small, Rural School Achievement Program from the Office of Elementary and Secondary Education, with five awards documented from 2022 through 2026. As a sub-recipient, Archway has received eight sub-grants from the Arizona Department of Education since 2022, flowing from Title I ($1,000 per Improving America's Schools Act compliance), IDEA Basic Section 611 special education subgrants, and ESSER II pandemic recovery funding. A July 2024 sub-grant specifically funded special education teacher and paraprofessional salaries at Great Hearts Academies–Archway Classical Academy Cicero to support consistency in services for students receiving special education and related services.

Customer concentration is singular: 100% of Archway's twenty total awards (prime and sub combined) derive from the Department of Education, split between the Office of Elementary and Secondary Education (15 awards) and the Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services (5 awards). The organization's combined federal obligation across all awards totals $1.4 million. Activity remains modest and flat — two awards in 2022, rising to four in 2024, then declining to three in 2025 and one in 2026. Only one award faces ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months, creating minimal recompete pressure in the near term. Archway does not hold federal contract vehicles, GWACs, BPAs, or other IDIQs. The organization operates exclusively within the K–12 public education sector as a classical-curriculum charter school and does not maintain federal contracting or consulting operations outside its education mission.
