Clover Park School District

Clover Park School District, a public K–12 school district serving Lakewood, Washington, is a recipient of federal grants from the Department of Education and the Department of Defense, operating as a prime recipient across education and military-connected student support programs and as a sub-recipient under state pass-through grantors. The district holds no federal contracts and does not compete in federal procurement; its federal footprint is entirely grant-funded.

The district's core federal funding derives from three Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education programs: Indian Education Formula Grants to LEAs (recurring annual formula awards since 2022); the Impact Aid Program, Title VII, Section 7003, which provides federal revenue replacement to districts serving federally connected and military-connected students on federal property (awards in November 2022, November 2023, December 2024, and October 2025 running through September 2030); and supplemental education programs administered through state pass-through mechanisms, primarily the Washington State Superintendent of Public Instruction. The district also holds direct Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA) grants: a $2 million project grant for Military-Connected Local Education Agencies for Academic and Support Programs (MCASP, CFDA 12.556) running September 2023 through May 2028 to fund academic, social, and emotional programs tailored to highly mobile military-connected students; a $1.3 million block grant under the Competitive Grants for K–12 Student Achievement at Military-Connected Schools (CFDA 12.556) from September 2022 through May 2027 for computer science and related curriculum development; and a World Language Advancement and Readiness Program (WLARP) project grant from September 2024 through May 2029.

The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education dominates customer concentration, accounting for 57 of 126 total awards across prime and sub-recipient roles; the Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service placed 25 awards primarily for child nutrition program reimbursement and administration; and DoDEA placed 14 awards. The top five customer agencies account for 89% of recent awards. Sub-recipient work flows primarily through the Washington State Superintendent of Public Instruction (55 sub-awards covering Title I, Part A; Title III English Language Acquisition; Title IIA Supporting Effective Instruction; Special Education IDEA Parts B and 619; student support and academic enrichment; and child nutrition programs) and the Puget Sound Educational Service District (Head Start services pass-through sub-awards). A single IDC appears in the vehicle history with minimal task order activity.

Award volume grew from four in 2022 to a peak of thirty in 2024, with thirteen in 2025 and five in 2026 to date. Only one award faces ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, indicating low near-term recompete exposure. The district's federal grant profile reflects its operational reality as a federally impacted district with substantial military-connected student populations served through education formula grants, impact aid, and direct DoDEA academic and support programming funded over multi-year periods.
