New Summerfield Independent School District Public

New Summerfield Independent School District Public, a tax-exempt nonprofit public school district headquartered in Jacksonville, Texas, receives federal grant funding as a prime recipient from the Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education and as a sub-recipient from the Texas Education Agency and Texas Department of Agriculture. The district operates primarily under formula grant assistance for rural education and student support programs rather than pursuing federal contracts.

The district's federal grant footprint centers on three programs. As a prime recipient, New Summerfield holds five formula grants under the Small, Rural School Achievement Program from the Department of Education (awarded July 2022 through July 2026, with the most recent award completing September 2027). As a sub-recipient, the district receives the majority of its federal funding through pass-through awards from the Texas Education Agency, which channels Department of Education Title I, Part A supplemental funding for low-income students, 21st Century Community Learning Centers (21st CCLC) afterschool enrichment activities, and safer-schools support under the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act. The Texas Department of Agriculture also passes through National School Lunch Program equipment grants and local food system funding to the district. Sub-awards span from August 2022 to August 2026, with at least four Title I sub-awards, three 21st CCLC sub-awards, one safer-communities enrichment sub-award, and two NSLP equipment grants named in the source.

The district's customer concentration is narrow and stable. The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education accounts for 90% of the 40 total awards in the source, with the Department of Agriculture (both Food and Nutrition Service and Agricultural Marketing Service lines) representing the remaining 2 awards. Combined dollars obligated across all federal sources total $5.7 million over the award window. Activity has remained modest and uneven — three awards in 2022, four in 2023, eight in 2024, four in 2025, and three in 2026 — with only one award (a Small, Rural School Achievement Program prime grant) completing within the next twenty-four months.
