Gypsy School District 12

Gypsy School District 12, doing business as Gypsy Public School, is a public school district located in Depew, Oklahoma, that receives federal education funding as a prime grant recipient from the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education. The district operates exclusively as a recipient under federal grant programs rather than as a federal contractor; it holds no federal contracts and does not serve as a prime on contract vehicles.

The district's federal footprint consists entirely of education grants administered by the Department of Education. Gypsy Public School has received repeated annual awards under the Small, Rural School Achievement Program (a formula grant), with recipients cycles in July 2022, July 2023, July 2024, July 2025, and July 2026; the most recent award (July 1, 2026) runs through September 30, 2027. The district also holds two long-term Impact Aid Program awards under Title VII, Section 7003 (project grants), one awarded November 3, 2022, with completion through September 30, 2028, and another awarded October 11, 2023, running through September 30, 2029. In addition, Gypsy Public School receives sub-grant pass-through funding from the Oklahoma State Department of Education under Title IV, Part A (Oklahoma Champions of Excellence Initiative), with sub-awards dated August 21, 2024, and August 15, 2024, focused on ensuring equitable access to high-quality education and academic achievement standards.

The district accounts for 38 prime grants and 2 sub-grant awards across all federal sources, with 100% of its award activity concentrated in the Department of Education. Total dollars obligated across forty years of award history (since 2006) amount to $850 thousand, reflecting the formula-grant structure typical of rural school districts. Award volume has remained modest and flat — one or two awards per year through 2024 and 2025 — with no recompete cliff exposure in the next twenty-four months beyond the single current award (the most recent Small, Rural School Achievement Program cycle) completing September 30, 2027.

As a state government entity operating as an educational institution, Gypsy Public School does not compete for contracts, sit on federal acquisition vehicles, or engage in commercial federal service delivery. The district's federal relationship is exclusively grant-recipient: receiving direct formula and project grants for K–12 educational operations and pass-through allocations from the state education agency. This profile indicates no relevance to federal contractor business development, competitive intelligence, or teaming strategy; the district is a customer agency and grant recipient rather than a vendor or service provider to the federal government.
