Laguna School District

Laguna School District, a U.S. local government entity and public school district headquartered in Petaluma, California, receives federal formula grants from the Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education as a prime recipient under the Small, Rural School Achievement Program (CFDA 84.358). The district is a child entity within the Marin County Office of Education governance structure and operates exclusively as a grant recipient; it does not hold federal contracts, compete for set-asides, or function as a prime contractor or subcontractor on federal procurements.

Laguna School District's federal footprint is narrow and consistent. Since 2007, the district has received 20 awards totaling $346 thousand in obligated federal funding, with 95% delivered as prime grant awards and 5% as sub-awards routed through the Marin County Office of Education. All nineteen prime awards originate from the Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education under the Small, Rural School Achievement Program, a formula-grant vehicle that cycles on a annual basis. Recent awards span from July 2022 through August 2026, with grants awarded on July 1 of each fiscal year and ultimate completion dates running through September 30 of the following year. The district received a prime formula grant award on July 1, 2026 with completion scheduled for September 30, 2027; prior cycles in 2025, 2024, 2023, and 2022 follow the same pattern. The district also participates as a sub-recipient on at least one Marin County Office of Education federal grant focused on improving student academic achievement through teacher quality and increasing the number of highly qualified teachers in the classroom, with a sub-award dated August 31, 2026. One recompete award is due for completion inside the next twenty-four months.

This federal engagement is characteristic of small rural school districts that qualify for formula-grant support under federal elementary and secondary education programs. The district has no federal contracting vehicle footprint and does not serve as a subcontractor or vendor to federal agencies or prime contractors in any federal procurement role.
