Happy Valley Union SCH Dist

Happy Valley Union School District, operating through its Superintendent's Office in Anderson, California, is a U.S. local government entity and school district that receives federal formula grants for rural school improvement as a prime grant recipient from the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education, and also participates in federal nutrition and education programs as a sub-recipient from the California Department of Education.

The district is a government entity with no federal contracting prime awards and no government-wide acquisition vehicles. Its federal footprint is entirely grant-based, concentrated in two roles: as a prime recipient of Department of Education formula grants for small and rural school achievement, and as a sub-recipient of state pass-through awards in nutrition assistance and targeted academic improvement. The source identifies Happy Valley Union as serving three distinct federal customer agencies — the Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education (15 awards, 71% of the recent portfolio), the Department of Agriculture's Food and Nutrition Service (3 awards), and the Department of Education's Office of English Language Acquisition (2 awards) — accounting for 95% of recent awards. Dollar obligation across the full award history totals $691 thousand, indicating modest grant receipts relative to total annual district operations.

As a prime grant recipient, Happy Valley Union has received annual Small, Rural School Achievement Program formula grants from the Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education for the past several years — most recently a grant awarded July 1, 2026 with ultimate completion dated September 30, 2027, following the annual cycle. These grants support district operations in a small rural setting. As a sub-recipient, the district receives nutrition support and academic improvement funding through the California Department of Education, including National School Lunch Program grants, National School Breakfast Program grants, grants to improve teaching and learning in high-poverty schools, and English Language Learner acquisition support. Recent sub-awards flow through the state education agency and are dated through the 2026 fiscal year. Activity has grown modestly, rising from one or two awards annually in 2022–2025 to eight awards in 2026, though the district faces only one award recompete within the next twenty-four months. The district does not serve as a prime or subcontractor in federal procurement and is not positioned to bid on contracts or act as a contractor teaming partner for federal vendors.
