About the company
Balko Independent School District, doing business as Balko High School, is a U.S. local government school district entity headquartered in Balko, Oklahoma, that receives federal grants as a prime recipient under the Small, Rural School Achievement Program and as a sub-recipient of Department of Agriculture nutrition and Department of Education Title IV academic achievement funding. The district does not hold federal contracts and operates exclusively within the federal grant space, not as a contracting vendor.
Balko ISD is a public school district operating in rural Oklahoma. The district's federal footprint centers on formula grants from the Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education (OESE), which accounts for 19 of the district's 20 recorded federal awards. As a prime recipient, Balko ISD holds annual Small, Rural School Achievement Program awards, with grants awarded each July covering twelve-month performance periods through September. The most recent prime award was issued July 1, 2026, with completion dated September 30, 2027. The district also receives sub-awards routed through the State Department of Education: a child nutrition reimbursement sub-award (June 29, 2026) from the Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service, and two Department of Education Title IV sub-awards supporting comprehensive school-improvement strategy and academic achievement standards implementation (both August 2024).
The district's activity footprint is modest and stable. Over the past five years (2022–2026), Balko ISD received two to three federal awards annually, with a combined obligated value of $396 thousand across all twenty awards on record since 2007. One award faces ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months. The district draws 100% of its federal customer base from two agencies — the Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education (95% of awards) and the Department of Agriculture (5% of awards). With 85% of awards held as prime recipient status, Balko ISD operates as the primary beneficiary of its grants rather than as a pass-through sub-recipient entity. The district does not participate in government-wide acquisition vehicles, IDIQs, or contract-based federal programs; federal engagement is limited to formula grants and sub-awards distributed through state education agencies.
