Ivanhoe Independent School District 403

Ivanhoe Independent School District 403, doing business as Ivanhoe Public Schools, is a U.S. local government school district based in Ivanhoe, Minnesota that operates as a prime recipient of federal education grants. The district does not hold federal contracts and operates exclusively under formula grant funding from the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education.

Ivanhoe Public Schools receives recurring annual awards under the Small, Rural School Achievement Program, a formula grant vehicle administered by the Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education (OESE). The district has received five consecutive awards under this program: July 1, 2022 through September 30, 2023; July 1, 2023 through September 30, 2024; July 1, 2024 through September 30, 2025; July 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026; and most recently July 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027. Combined obligated dollars across the entire award portfolio total $235 thousand across nineteen awards in the source data spanning back to 2007. The district serves a single customer agency — the Department of Education — and operates as a prime recipient on 100% of awards with no subrecipient activity.

Activity has remained flat at one award per year over the past five years (2022 through 2026), reflecting the formulaic and predictable nature of Small, Rural School Achievement Program funding to eligible rural districts. One award (the current July 2026 grant with an ultimate completion date of September 30, 2027) carries completion within the next twenty-four months and will face renewal or recompete under the program's standard annual award cycle. The district's federal footprint is limited to education and rural school support; the organization does not pursue or hold procurement contracts and operates entirely within the federal grant ecosystem for rural K-12 school districts.
