Weld County School District

Weld County School District, also known as Prairie School District, is a U.S. local government entity registered in SAM.gov since September 2009, specializing in educational services for a rural community in Colorado. As a school district, the organization primarily serves students and supports educational programs through various federal grant mechanisms. The district is recognized as a small, rural school system that receives federal funding to support its educational infrastructure and programming needs.

The district has consistently received federal grants, primarily from the Office of Elementary and Secondary Education, focusing on programs like the Small, Rural School Achievement Program. Multiple sub-grant awards reveal a substantial involvement in nutrition-related federal programs, including Nutrition Block grants across different fiscal years (2122, 2223, 2324, 2425), Summer EBT, and Supply Chain Assistance. The district has also been a recipient of significant educational recovery grants, such as ESSER (Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief) programs, including ESSER II, ESSER III, and ARP ESSER III, which were likely implemented in response to COVID-19 educational disruptions. The Board of Education Colorado has been a primary partner in administering these sub-grant awards, with grants targeting areas like high-impact tutoring, pandemic-related educational support, and nutrition assistance programs. These awards demonstrate the district's comprehensive approach to leveraging federal funding to support student nutrition, educational recovery, and rural school development.
