Wagoner Ind. Sch. District 19

Wagoner Independent School District 19 is a U.S. government entity based in Wagoner, Oklahoma that receives federal education grants as the primary recipient from the Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education and as a sub-recipient through the Oklahoma Department of Education and other state entities. The district does not hold federal contracts and operates exclusively in the grant space, where it acts as prime recipient on direct formula grants (41% of recent awards) and as sub-recipient on pass-through state allocations (59% of recent awards).

The district's primary federal funding stream is the Indian Education Grants to Local Educational Agencies program (CFDA 84.060), through which the Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education has awarded five consecutive annual formula grants spanning July 2022 through June 2027. These awards—ranging from $148,625 to $178,419 per fiscal year—fund culturally appropriate academic instruction, cultural programming, teacher and school leader professional development, and targeted student support services for American Indian and Alaska Native students in Wagoner. Cumulative obligated dollars across all awards total $4.7 million, with awards concentrated in the past two years (fifteen awards in 2024 alone, driven by multiple sub-awards from state agencies).

Funding concentration is sharp. The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education accounts for all fifteen direct prime awards (100% of prime-recipient work); the Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service issues ten sub-awards through the Oklahoma Department of Education for school nutrition reimbursement; the Oklahoma Department of Career and Technology Education passes through vocational education grants; and the Department of Education Office of English Language Acquisition contributes one award. Sub-recipient work includes nutritionally adequate meals reimbursement (eight awards from 2023 to 2026), teacher quality and professional development funding under Title II, immigrant student achievement and English language acquisition support under Title III, and vocational education basic grants routed through Oklahoma's state agencies.

One award reaches ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting minimal recompete exposure. The district's federal footprint remains small and locally focused: all work is performed in Wagoner, Oklahoma, with no enterprise contracting vehicles, no parent IDIQs or GWACs, and no federal contractor relationships. The district's role is as an eligible Local Educational Agency distributing formula-grant funds to support Native American student achievement and cultural heritage preservation in rural Oklahoma.
