Boundary County School District 101

Boundary County School District 101, a U.S. local government school district headquartered in Bonners Ferry, Idaho, receives federal education and nutrition grants as a sub-recipient through the Idaho State Board of Education, with minimal prime contracting activity limited to two land rental purchase orders totaling $14,800 from the Department of the Interior's Northern Region in 2026.

The district's federal footprint is overwhelmingly grant-based. Of 36 total awards in the source data, 32 (89%) are grant sub-awards; the remaining 4 prime awards consist of two purchase orders for land rental at Dalton Gardens, Idaho and two legacy contract line items of negligible value. The district operates entirely outside competitive contracting and set-aside vehicles — its business with federal agencies flows exclusively through pass-through education and nutrition grants administered by the Idaho State Board of Education as the prime grantee.

Customer concentration is dominated by the Department of Education. The top five funding entities account for 92% of awards by count: the Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education leads with 12 grants, followed by the Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service with 9 grants, the Department of Education Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services with 6 grants, the Department of Education Office of Postsecondary Education with 4 grants, and the Department of Agriculture Forest Service Northern Region with 2 land rental purchase orders. The two customer rankings align substantially on both volume and dollar priority.

Federal grant work spans ten distinct programs flowing through the Idaho State Board of Education. The district acts as sub-recipient on Title I Grants to Local Educational Agencies, Special Education Grants to States, Improving Teacher Quality State Grants, Gaining Early Awareness and Readiness for Undergraduate Programs (GEAR UP), Student Support and Academic Enrichment Programs, Career Technical Education, the National School Lunch Program, the Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program, the Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief Fund, and the National School Lunch Program. Sub-awards span from October 2022 through December 2024, with awards clustering in December 2023, January 2024, August 2024, October 2024, and December 2024. The source does not provide dollar magnitudes for individual grant sub-awards, though combined potential value across all 36 awards totals $20 thousand — a figure reflecting the two land rental purchase orders and indicating nominal documentation values on the grant sub-awards themselves. Actual obligated dollars total $2.4 million across the footprint.
