About the company
Federal Way School District, doing business as Federal Way Public Schools, is a U.S. local government school district located in Federal Way, Washington, that receives federal grant funding as a prime recipient (27% of awards) and predominantly as a sub-recipient (73% of awards) to support K-12 educational programming, student services, and child nutrition operations. The district does not hold federal contracts and operates exclusively within the federal grant ecosystem, serving American Indian and Alaska Native student populations, economically disadvantaged students, students experiencing homelessness, and English language learners.
Federal Way Public Schools receives direct formula grants from the Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education under the Indian Education Grants to Local Educational Agencies program (CFDA 84.060). The district has received consecutive annual Indian Education Formula Grants in the range of $113,634 to $122,324 per fiscal year. The most recent prime award, granted July 1, 2026, totaled $121,918 for the July 2026–June 2027 period and funds culturally-related academic programs, Native American student support services, tribal language and history instruction, and teacher professional development addressing the unique educational needs of Indian students. A project grant from the Department of Agriculture's Child Nutrition Division awarded July 22, 2024, supported farm-to-school programming through June 30, 2026. These prime awards reflect the district's enrollment of a significant Indian student population meeting the statutory threshold of at least ten Indian children or Indian students constituting at least 25 percent of total enrollment.
The district's substantial sub-recipient footprint derives from pass-through awards flowing from the Washington State Superintendent of Public Instruction, which is the prime grantee on federal education and child nutrition grants. Sub-awards fund Title I Part A school improvement, Title II professional development for effective instruction, Title III English Language Acquisition, Student Support and Academic Enrichment, Special Education (IDEA Part B, Sections 611 and 619), McKinney-Vento homeless education services, and high-need individual safety-net programming. Child nutrition sub-awards fund reimbursement and administrative support for school meal programs. The district also received federal emergency assistance sub-awards from the Washington State Military Department related to COVID-19 pandemic response. Across the award portfolio, 39 sub-awards flow from the Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education, 27 from the Department of Agriculture's Food and Nutrition Service, 9 from the Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services, and smaller volumes from the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the Office of English Language Acquisition. Combined dollars obligated across all awards total $96.6 million, with activity peaking at 23 awards in 2024; only one award faces completion within the next twenty-four months, indicating minimal near-term recompete exposure.
