Lorenzo Independent School District

Lorenzo Independent School District, a local educational institution headquartered in Lorenzo, Texas, is a grant recipient (42% of recent awards as prime recipient) and sub-recipient (58%) of federal education funding, with all federal work flowing through the Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education and Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services. The district does not hold federal contracts and operates exclusively within the federal grant space, receiving formula grants and sub-awards to fund special education, Title I supplemental instruction, and rural school achievement programs.

Lorenzo ISD's federal grant footprint centers on three recurring programs. As a prime recipient, the district has received five consecutive annual awards under the Small, Rural School Achievement Program (formula grants from the Office of Elementary and Secondary Education), with the most recent award dated July 1, 2026, running through September 30, 2027. As a sub-recipient, the district receives sub-awards from the Texas Education Agency flowing Title I, Part A supplemental funding (Elementary and Secondary Education Act, as amended by the Every Student Succeeds Act) and Individuals with Disabilities Education Act Part B formula funds (20 U.S.C. 1400 et seq.). These sub-awards fund free appropriate public education services for students with disabilities ages 3–21 and supplemental instruction for students from low-income families attending high-concentration Title I campuses. The district has received IDEA-B and Title I sub-awards annually since at least 2022, with the most recent dated August 8, 2026.

Customer concentration is extreme: the Department of Education accounts for all 31 awards in the source data, split between OESE (21 awards) and the Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services (9 awards), covering 97% of tracked awards. Combined dollars obligated total $5.3 million across the full award history. Activity has remained flat over the past five years (three to five awards annually from 2022 through 2026), with only one award reaching ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, indicating minimal recompete exposure in the near term. The district does not appear in federal contract vehicles, GWACs, or BPAs; all federal engagement is direct grant receipt or sub-grant passthrough from the state education agency.
