2-AISDP 0003 - CTPA INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT FORM (2).pdf

This is an Interlocal Agreement Form submitted by the Amarillo Independent School District (AISD) in connection with a Career and Technical Education (CTE) Student Growth Assessment and Teacher Incentive Allotment (TIA) support services contract. The agreement pertains to the Central Texas Purchasing Alliance (CTPA), a cooperative purchasing consortium that allows multiple local government entities to access goods and services procured by AISD at negotiated contract prices. The underlying contract opportunity seeks qualified vendors to provide pre-test and post-test assessment solutions for AISD's CTE programs, with the primary objective of measuring student growth through statistically valid testing models aligned with Texas Education Code 21.3521 for Cohort 3 implementation. Vendors are invited to propose solutions for either Option 1, Option 2, or both implementation options, and must include comprehensive training for campus staff on test administration, security protocols, standardization, and data reliability.

The Interlocal Agreement Form requires interested vendors to indicate whether they will honor orders from CTPA member districts at the contract terms and prices quoted for AISD, in addition to fulfilling orders directly from the school district. A complete roster of CTPA member districts is available at the provided Google Sites link. Vendors must execute the form with an authorized representative's signature and date to confirm their willingness to participate in the interlocal purchasing arrangement. This optional interlocal purchasing provision extends the contract's value and reach beyond AISD to the broader CTPA membership, subject to the vendor's election and mutual agreement with the district.
