Brimley Area School District

Brimley Area School District, a U.S. local government school district based in Brimley, Michigan, operates as a prime recipient of federal formula and project grants from the Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education, supplemented by sub-recipient funding passed through the Michigan Department of Education. The district does not hold federal contracts and does not bid competitively for federal procurement; its entire footprint consists of K–12 educational assistance grants, which totaled $24.2 million in combined obligated dollars across 84 awards in the source data.

The district's customer concentration is highly concentrated. The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education accounts for 73 of 84 awards (87%), with the Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service representing 11 awards (13%). The district's grant portfolio is anchored by recurring formula grants and project grants from ED/OESE. As a prime recipient, Brimley Area School District holds Impact Aid Program (Title VII, Section 7003) project grants, including a $1.225 million award dated October 1, 2025, running through September 30, 2031, which addresses the financial impact on Superior Township of federal property exemptions and federally connected children on federal lands or with active-duty parents. The district also receives the Small Rural School Achievement Program and Indian Education Formula Grants to Local Education Agencies on annual cycles, with recent prime awards dated July 1, 2026, and running through September 30, 2027 (Small Rural) and June 30, 2027 (Indian Education). The district has registered in SAM.gov since 2009 and has drawn prior federal grants supporting Title I Part A, the National School Lunch Program, and COVID-19 emergency relief (ESSER).

In its sub-recipient role, Brimley Area School District receives funding passed through the Michigan Department of Education for Department of Education and Department of Agriculture programs, including Title I Part A support for disadvantaged children, USDA nutrition programs, and ESSER III COVID-19 mitigation funds. The district has been awarded sub-recipient funding on approximately 19 occasions since 2021. Activity has been stable to slightly rising—five awards per year in 2022 and 2023, climbing to ten awards in 2025, with six awards through mid-2026. Two awards reach ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, indicating minimal recompete exposure in the near term. The district serves a rural federally impacted community and does not pursue or hold any prime federal contracts, GWACs, BPAs, or government-wide vehicles; its mission and structure confine its federal engagement to education funding and nutrition assistance.
