York County School Division

York County School Division is a U.S. local government entity and school district located in Yorktown, Virginia, that has maintained federal registration since May 2005. The organization serves a military-connected student population significantly impacted by federal activities, including the presence of military installations that have reduced the local tax base. York County School Division receives federal funding through both prime contract and grant awards to support its comprehensive K-12 educational services and specialized programs designed to meet the unique needs of its student population.

York County School Division has received minimal federal contract awards, with only one prime contract on record. In May 2023, the school division was awarded a purchase order contract valued at $70,528.68 from the Air Combat Command to provide shuttle bus services for an airshow, with an ultimate completion date of May 7, 2023. This contract represents the organization's limited engagement in direct federal contracting activities and demonstrates its capacity to provide transportation and logistical support services when called upon by federal agencies.

York County School Division has been a significant recipient of federal grant awards, with a diverse portfolio spanning multiple funding agencies and program areas. The organization has received substantial funding from the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education through the Impact Aid Program (CFDA 84.041), which provides financial assistance to school districts adversely affected by federal activities.
