Texhoma School District I-61

Texhoma School District I-61, a U.S. local government school district headquartered in Texhoma, Oklahoma, receives federal grant funding as a prime recipient under the Small, Rural School Achievement Program and as a sub-recipient of K-12 education and nutrition support awards distributed by the Oklahoma Department of Education.

Texhoma is a parent entity to Texhoma Independent School District. As a public school district, it operates outside SBA set-aside designations and does not compete on federal contracts. The organization's federal footprint consists entirely of grant work — 20 prime grant awards and 6 sub-grant awards across a combined obligated value of $613 thousand over the past two decades. The two federal funding agencies are the Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education (23 awards) and the Department of Agriculture's Food and Nutrition Service (3 awards), accounting for 100% of recent award activity.

Prime funding flows through the Small, Rural School Achievement Program (CFDA not specified in source), a formula grant from the Office of Elementary and Secondary Education. Texhoma has received consecutive annual awards each July from 2022 through 2026, with ultimate completion dates running one quarter past the award date. The 2026 award (dated July 1, 2026, completing September 30, 2027) and 2025 award (completing September 30, 2026) represent the active pipeline within the next twenty-four months.

Sub-grant activity routes through the Oklahoma Department of Education as the prime grantee, covering child nutrition reimbursement (two awards dated May 15, 2026) and teacher and principal quality initiatives. Named sub-award programs include Title II teacher quality improvement (August 21, 2024), Title IV comprehensive school support under the Oklahoma Champions of Excellence Initiative (August 21, 2024), and Title I equitable education access and proficiency (August 15, 2024). All sub-awards carry program descriptions aligned with K-12 student achievement, teacher recruitment and training, school safety, and nutrition — functions characteristic of district-level education and child welfare operations.

Award velocity has been modest and irregular — one or two awards annually from 2022 through 2025, stepping to three awards in 2026 — with a combined obligated value of $613 thousand reflecting the formula-grant and reimbursement nature of the funding rather than discretionary procurement or competitive contracting.
