About the company
Bethune School District R-5, a Colorado public school district based in Bethune, operates as a federal grant recipient under the Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education and the Department of Agriculture's Food and Nutrition Service, functioning as both a prime grant recipient (43% of recent awards) and a sub-recipient of nutrition and emergency relief funding (57% of recent awards).
The district's federal footprint centers on two customer agencies. The Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service accounts for 24 awards, primarily nutrition block grants and Summer EBT sub-awards flowing through the Board of Education Colorado as the prime grantee. The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education accounts for 20 awards, anchored by the Small, Rural School Achievement Program (SSRSP), a formula grant awarded annually in July with September 30 completion dates. Bethune has received SSRSP prime grants in 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025, and 2026 — the most recent award issued July 1, 2026, with ultimate completion scheduled for September 30, 2027.
Beyond SSRSP, Bethune's sub-recipient activity reflects operational support tied to Colorado's state-level nutrition administration. The district receives monthly sub-awards for Nutrition Block allocations (designated 2324, 2425, and 2526 by school year) and a single Summer EBT sub-award dated May 9, 2024, all flowing from the Board of Education Colorado as prime recipient. This sub-award pattern suggests Bethune operates a federal child nutrition program (National School Lunch Program or School Breakfast Program components) under Colorado's umbrella nutrition block authority. A single ESSER I (Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief) Rapid Request sub-award dated September 29, 2022, indicates prior pandemic relief participation.
Combined dollars obligated across the 44 awards total $605 thousand, reflecting the modest scale of formula grants and nutrition sub-awards characteristic of small rural districts. Activity accelerated in 2024 (11 awards) and has sustained at 8 awards annually in 2025 and 2026. One award reaches ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months. Bethune does not hold federal contracts, GWACs, BPAs, or IDVs; all federal funding flows through direct grant channels managed by the Department of Education and Department of Agriculture.
