Green Forest Elementary School District R2

Green Forest Elementary School District R2, doing business as Green Forest Elementary School, is a U.S. local government school district entity based in Salem, Missouri, that receives federal formula grants and sub-grants for K–12 educational programs as a prime recipient (54% of awards) and as a sub-recipient flowing funds through the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (46% of awards).

The district's federal footprint centers on three grantor agencies, with the Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education dominating the portfolio at 29 awards across 95% of all activity. The district holds direct prime grants under the Small, Rural School Achievement Program, with awards issued annually from July 2022 through July 2026, each running twelve months to fifteen months. The most recent prime award was issued July 1, 2026, with completion scheduled for September 30, 2027. As a sub-recipient, Green Forest Elementary has drawn federal funds through Missouri's state education agency under Title I Part A (Educationally Deprived), IDEA Part B (special education), the Child Nutrition Program Block Grant, the American Rescue Plan Elementary and Secondary Schools Emergency Relief Fund (ARP-ESSER), and the Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief Fund (ESSER). The District of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service and the Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services account for the remaining four and two awards respectively.

Combined dollars obligated across the full thirty-seven-award portfolio total $2.8 million, reflecting the modest scale typical of rural school district federal grant activity. Award frequency has remained steady over the past five years, with three to six awards per year; only one award faces ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, indicating stable, recurring annual formula-grant intake with minimal recompete pressure. The district does not hold federal contracts or IDV seats; all activity is federal grant and sub-grant work flowing through education-focused grantor programs.
