School District 30

School District 30, doing business as Sunset Elementary School, is a U.S. local government entity and school district headquartered in Greenough, Montana that receives federal formula grants as a prime recipient from the Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education, with no role as a federal contractor or prime contractor.

School District 30 is structured as a public school district, a category that does not qualify for SBA set-aside certifications. The district operates exclusively within the federal grant ecosystem; it does not hold seats on government-wide acquisition contracts, bid task orders, or compete for federal procurement opportunities. Over the past five years, the district has received awards at a modest and declining pace — one award in 2022, two in 2023, three in 2024, two in 2025, and one in 2026 — with combined dollars obligated totaling $601 thousand across all twenty-four awards since 2007.

The district's federal footprint is concentrated entirely with a single customer: the Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education accounts for 100% of awards. In its prime-recipient role (83% of recent awards), School District 30 participates in the Small, Rural School Achievement Program, a formula-grant vehicle under which the district received awards in July 2022, July 2023, July 2024, July 2025, and July 2026, with ultimate completion dates staggered at September 30 of the following year. In its sub-recipient role (17% of awards), the district receives pass-through funding from the Montana Office of Public Instruction under Title I A (CFDA 84.010) and Emergency Relief for Schools in Substantial Fiscal Distress programs (ESSER II under CFDA 84.425 and ESSER III under CFDA 84.425U). Sub-awards flow through the state education agency in September and July cycles. One award with ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months faces renewal or recompete in that window. The district does not operate as a contractor, vendor, or subcontractor to federal acquisition programs and therefore does not represent competitive overlap, teaming opportunity, or sub-engagement exposure for federal contractors in the procurement space.
