Discovery Plus Academy

Discovery Plus Academy, a nonprofit organization based in Pima, Arizona, receives federal formula grants from the Office of Elementary and Secondary Education (ED/OESE) to operate educational programming for small and rural schools as a prime grant recipient, with all twenty-two awards in its federal footprint funded through the Small, Rural School Achievement Program.

Discovery Plus Academy's customer concentration is absolute: the Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education accounts for 100% of its twenty-two awards. The vendor has operated continuously in this program since 2007, with recent annual cycles showing a steady pattern of single awards per year (one award per fiscal year from 2023 through 2026). The most recent grant award was issued July 1, 2026, with ultimate completion set for September 30, 2027; prior awards follow the same annual award and completion cycle, running from July through the following September. Combined dollars obligated across all awards in the source total $531 thousand, reflecting the formula-grant structure of the Small, Rural School Achievement Program.

Discovery Plus Academy's award footprint divides between prime grant awards (twenty awards, 91% of total) and subgrant awards (two awards, 9%). The two subgrant awards, both issued in February 2022, were sub-awarded from the Arizona Department of Education and tasked with running programs under grant guidelines and the ESSER III (Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief) grant framework. The prime grant awards, running consistently since 2007, represent direct receipt of Small, Rural School Achievement Program formula allocations for the delivery of educational services aligned with the program's mission to support achievement in small and rural schools.

One award is scheduled for ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months (the July 1, 2025 award completing September 30, 2026), indicating minimal near-term recompete pressure relative to the vendor's steady-state annual award cycle. Discovery Plus Academy does not hold federal contracts, IDVs, GWACs, or BPAs; its federal engagement is exclusively grant-funded and does not position the vendor as a potential teaming partner or prime contractor competitor on federal procurement vehicles.
