About the company
Desert Center Unified School District, doing business as Eagle Mountain School, is a U.S. local government school district based in Desert Center, California, that receives federal formula grants and sub-awards as a prime recipient under the Small, Rural School Achievement Program and related education-funding streams administered by the Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education.
The district operates exclusively as a federal grant recipient, not as a federal contractor. Its federal footprint consists of five consecutive annual formula-grant awards under the Small, Rural School Achievement Program, with awards issued each July 1 from 2022 through 2026 (covering performance periods through September 30 of the following year). The district also receives sub-awards channeled through the California Department of Education, funding school lunch programs (National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program), Title I services to improve teaching and learning in high-poverty schools, and English Language Acquisition programs. Across recent activity, the district serves three distinct federal grantor agencies: the Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education (20 awards, covering both prime formula grants and sub-awards), the Department of Agriculture's Food and Nutrition Service (3 awards), and the Department of Education's Office of English Language Acquisition (1 award), accounting for 96% of recent award activity.
Activity has increased year over year, from one award each in 2022 and 2023 to seven awards in 2026. Combined dollars obligated across all awards total $269 thousand. The district's grant sub-awards, received from the California Department of Education as pass-through agency, target academic achievement improvement in high-poverty schools, teacher quality, English language proficiency for limited-English-proficient students, and nutrition services through school meal programs. One award reaches ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting minimal recompete exposure. The district does not hold seats on federal IDIQs, GWACs, or BPAs and does not serve as a federal contractor or subcontractor.
