Lyle Independent School District

Lyle Independent School District, a U.S. local government school district headquartered in Lyle, Minnesota, acts as a federal grant recipient focused on K–12 education programs and does not hold federal contracts or contract vehicles. The district operates as a prime recipient on formula grants from the Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education and as a sub-recipient on pass-through grants from the Minnesota Department of Education.

Lyle ISD's federal footprint centers entirely on the Small, Rural School Achievement Program, a formula grant under the Office of Elementary and Secondary Education. The district has received five consecutive annual awards under this program, with the most recent awards spanning July 2022 through September 2027. The district also appears as a sub-recipient on two awards passed through the Minnesota Department of Education (awarded May 6, 2024, and February 22, 2024), both labeled as formula-grant pass-throughs for fiscal years 2024 and 2023. The combined dollars obligated across all twenty-two awards in the source data total $649 thousand, reflecting the modest scale characteristic of rural school districts.

The Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education accounts for 100% of the district's recent federal award activity (21 of 22 awards). The Environmental Protection Agency represents a single outlier award in the source data. Activity has remained sparse and irregular over the past five years — one award each in 2022, 2023, and 2025, and three awards in 2024 — with no trajectory toward growth. One award reaches ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting minimal recompete exposure. The district's role as a prime recipient on 86% of awards (nineteen of twenty-two) reflects the structure of formula grants, which typically flow directly to eligible school districts rather than through intermediary contractors or regional education service centers.

Lyle ISD's federal engagement is limited to education formula-grant administration and compliance, with no commercial goods or services delivery, no contract competition, and no teaming or subcontracting relationships with federal contractors. The district's presence in federal award data reflects routine eligibility and receipt of statutory education funding, not a business development or competitive footprint relevant to federal contractor market intelligence.
