Roby C I S D, a public school district in Roby, Texas, is a federal grant recipient that receives supplemental education funding from the Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education under the Small, Rural School Achievement Program and Title I, Part A of the Every Student Succeeds Act, serving as the prime recipient on formula grants and as a sub-recipient on pass-through awards from the Texas Education Agency.

Roby C I S D is a U.S. government entity — a state-level public school district — with no federal contracting footprint and no set-aside eligibility. The district's federal engagement is limited to K–12 education grant programs administered through the Department of Education. Since 2007, the district has held 31 total awards (61% as prime recipient, 39% as sub-recipient) with a combined dollar obligation of $1.5 million, serving a single customer agency: the Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education.

The district's prime grant work centers on formula-based allocations under the Small, Rural School Achievement Program, with four consecutive awards on a July 1 cycle: grants dated July 1, 2022 (completion September 30, 2023), July 1, 2023 (completion September 30, 2024), July 1, 2025 (completion September 30, 2026), and July 1, 2026 (completion September 30, 2027). The sub-recipient footprint consists of Title I, Part A pass-through awards from the Texas Education Agency, providing supplemental resources to schools with high concentrations of low-income students to support state academic standards attainment. Sub-awards include two CRRSA Act (ESSER II) awards for pandemic response issued in October 2021. Annual award volume has remained low and flat — two to three awards per year — with only one award (the July 1, 2025 Small, Rural School Achievement Program grant with completion date September 30, 2026) scheduled for recompete or renewal within the next twenty-four months.

Roby C I S D is not a federal contractor and does not hold seats on federal contract vehicles, IDIQs, or GWACs. The district's relationship to the federal government is that of a grant recipient for K–12 education programs, not a vendor providing goods or services to federal agencies.
