Mount Enterprise Independent School District

Mount Enterprise Independent School District, a public school district headquartered in Mount Enterprise, Texas, is a recipient of federal education grants under the Small, Rural School Achievement Program, administered by the Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education. As a U.S. government entity (school district), Mount Enterprise does not compete for federal contracts and holds no contract vehicles; its federal footprint consists entirely of direct formula grants and sub-grant pass-throughs from state intermediaries.

Mount Enterprise's federal activity centers on Title I, Part A supplemental funding for low-income student achievement and the Small, Rural School Achievement Program formula grant. The district holds five direct prime grants under the Small, Rural School Achievement Program spanning 2022 through 2027 (most recently awarded July 1, 2026, with completion scheduled September 30, 2027). The district also receives ten sub-grants, predominantly pass-throughs from the Texas Education Agency under Title I, Part A of the Every Student Succeeds Act, which funds supplemental instruction and state performance standards alignment for schools serving high-concentration low-income student populations. One sub-grant flows through the Texas Department of Agriculture (2024 Local Food for Schools award).

Over the past five years, Mount Enterprise has received awards at a steady but modest pace — three in 2022, three in 2023, four in 2024, three in 2025, and two in 2026 — totaling 34 awards (prime and sub combined) obligating $2.1 million across the source window. The Department of Education accounts for 97% of award count (32 awards), with the Department of Agriculture representing a single award. As a sub-recipient on Title I, Part A grants, Mount Enterprise executes curriculum and instructional programs designed to improve academic outcomes in reading, mathematics, and state content standards. The district holds 59% of awards as prime recipient (direct from Department of Education under the Small, Rural School Achievement Program) and 41% as sub-recipient (Title I, Part A flows from Texas Education Agency or similar state pass-through agents). One award has an ultimate completion date within the next twenty-four months, creating minimal recompete exposure in the immediate window.
