About the company
Crest Unified School District # 479, a U.S. local government entity based in Colony, Kansas, acts as a prime recipient of federal education grants and as a sub-recipient on education block grants flowing from the Kansas State Department of Education. The district does not hold federal contracts as a prime or subcontractor; its federal footprint is exclusively grant-based.
The district's grant portfolio centers on two federal agencies and two program categories. The Office of Elementary and Secondary Education (within the Department of Education) has awarded Crest five direct prime grants for the Small, Rural School Achievement Program as a formula grant, with awards dated annually from July 2022 through July 2026 and completion dates staggered through September 2027. The Kansas State Department of Education, as prime grantee, has channeled 33 sub-grants to the district, primarily in block grant form, with smaller Title I Low Income and Education of Low Income Students awards interspersed. Sub-grant awards span from August 2022 through July 2026, with the majority concentrated in 2024 through mid-2026. Combined federal dollars obligated across all 53 awards total $1.2 million, reflecting the formula-grant and pass-through nature of rural school funding.
The district's recent activity shows volatility: three awards in 2022, two in 2023, then a sustained increase to eleven awards in 2024, ten in 2025, and ten in 2026. The concentration of both award count and dollars across two agencies (Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service at 27 awards and the Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education at 26 awards) represents 100% of the visible award footprint, though the source data distinguish the Food and Nutrition Service line without corresponding grant details. Only one award carries an ultimate completion date within the next twenty-four months, reducing near-term recompete exposure. The district's role as a sub-recipient (62% of awards) relative to prime recipient (38%) reflects the standard flow of federal K-12 education funding through state departments of education to local school districts.
