Sivells Bend Independent School District

Sivells Bend Independent School District is a local government educational entity located in Gainesville, Texas, registered in SAM.gov since 2009 with a current registration valid through December 2025. As a public school district, it serves the educational needs of students in its local community, focusing on providing primary and secondary education services. The district is structured as a U.S. Local Government and School District, primarily engaging with federal funding mechanisms through grant programs designed to support rural and economically challenged school systems.

The district has consistently received federal grants, predominantly through the Small, Rural School Achievement Program administered by the Office of Elementary and Secondary Education. These annual formula grants, awarded each July with completion dates in September of the following year, provide critical funding support. Additionally, Sivells Bend ISD has received significant sub-awards from the Texas Education Agency, including Title I, Part A grants designed to provide supplemental resources for schools with high concentrations of low-income students. The district also benefited from COVID-19 related emergency relief funding, such as the CRRSA Act's ESSER II and the American Rescue Plan's ESSER III grants, which aimed to help schools safely reopen and address pandemic-related educational challenges. Sub-award partners have included the Texas Education Agency and the Texas Department of Agriculture, demonstrating the district's collaborative approach to securing and implementing federal educational support funding.
