Fairfield Unified School District 310

Fairfield Unified School District 310, a U.S. local government school district located in Turon, Kansas, is a federal grant recipient operating primarily in a sub-recipient capacity under K-12 education programs administered by the Department of Education and the Department of Agriculture. The district does not hold prime federal contracts; its footprint consists of 59 federal grant awards accumulated since 2007, with 66% of recent activity routed through the Kansas State Department of Education as the prime grantee.

The district's federal activity concentrates entirely on two customer agencies spanning a 100% coverage share. The Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service accounts for 33 awards, while the Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education (operating the Small, Rural School Achievement Program as a formula grant) accounts for 26 awards. The district functions as a sub-recipient on block grants and Title I Low Income education funding streams flowing from the Kansas State Department of Education. Representative sub-awards include recurring block grant allocations (39 sub-awards per the portfolio) dated across 2022 through 2026, and Title I Low Income sub-awards from the Kansas State Department of Education dated July 1, 2023 and October 6, 2025. The district also holds five direct prime awards under the Small, Rural School Achievement Program from the Office of Elementary and Secondary Education, most recently a formula grant awarded July 1, 2026 with ultimate completion date September 30, 2027.

Activity shows volatility rather than growth trajectory. The district recorded three awards in 2022, two in 2023, then thirteen in 2024, twelve in 2025, and twelve in 2026 — reflecting fluctuations in sub-award allocation timing rather than substantive program expansion. Combined dollars obligated across all 59 awards total $1.6 million, indicating modest per-award values typical of rural school district K-12 grants. Only one award faces ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating minimal recompete exposure in that window. The district's federal footprint remains anchored to education equity and nutrition assistance programming rather than contract services, and all direct prime awards operate under formula grant mechanisms rather than competitive procurement.
