Mount Baldy Joint Elementary School District

Mount Baldy Joint Elementary School District, a U.S. local government school district based in Mount Baldy, California, is a federal grant recipient under the Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education, participating in the Small, Rural School Achievement Program as a formula-grant recipient rather than as a federal contractor or vendor.

The district has received federal grant funding continuously since at least 2006, with recent awards in 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025, and 2026. The Small, Rural School Achievement Program awards are formula grants designed to increase student academic achievement through strategies including improving teacher and principal quality and increasing the number of highly qualified teachers in the classroom. The district's most recent award, issued on July 1, 2026, carries an ultimate completion date of September 30, 2027. The district also holds one federal grant sub-award dated August 31, 2026, supporting the same academic-achievement objectives. Across its twenty-five total awards in the source data, the district has obligated $455 thousand in combined federal dollars, with the Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education accounting for 96% of awards (24 awards). The district operates exclusively as a grant recipient (96% prime, 4% sub) rather than as a federal contractor.

Activity has remained flat at one award per year from 2022 through 2025, with two awards recorded in 2026. One award reaches completion in the next twenty-four months, presenting a recompete window aligned with the annual formula-grant cycle. The district's federal footprint is narrowly concentrated in a single federal customer and a single grant program, with no federal contract work or participation in IDIQs, GWACs, or BPAs. For federal contractors seeking partnership or teaming opportunities, Mount Baldy Joint Elementary School District functions as an end-user recipient of education-improvement funding rather than as a vendor capable of prime contracting or subcontracting roles on federal procurements.
