Shawnee School District R3

Shawnee School District R3 Shawnee Elementary School, a U.S. government entity and Missouri public school district based in Clinton, operates as a recipient of federal education grants rather than a federal contractor. The district is a prime recipient of formula grants from the Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education and a sub-recipient of pass-through education grants from the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education.

The district's federal footprint centers on K–12 education funding and nutrition support. As a prime recipient, Shawnee Elementary has received annual Small, Rural School Achievement Program formula grants directly from the Office of Elementary and Secondary Education, with awards occurring each July (most recently July 1, 2026, with ultimate completion on September 30, 2027). As a sub-recipient, the district has received American Rescue Plan Elementary and Secondary Schools Emergency Relief Fund (ARP-ESSER) allocations and Child Nutrition Program Block Grant pass-throughs from the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education, with sub-award dates spanning January 2023 through July 2026.

Customer concentration is entirely within education and nutrition. The Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education accounts for 24 awards across the 26-award footprint in the source data; the Department of Agriculture's Food and Nutrition Service accounts for 2 awards, representing 100% of identified customer agencies. The district operates as prime on 77% of awards (20 awards) and as sub-recipient on 23% (6 awards).

Federal obligation totaled $491 thousand across all awards in the source data. Activity shows modest annual volume — one to three awards per calendar year over the past five years — with only one award (combined potential value not separately specified in the source) reaching completion inside the next twenty-four months. The district has received Small, Rural School Achievement Program grants consistently since at least 2022 under the recurring annual funding cycle typical of formula grant vehicles under the Assistance Type designation shown in the source.
