The District is requesting to purchase Ellevation and Strategies licenses from Curriculum Associates, LLC for implementation across various sites within the District. Ellevation and Strategies is a research-based, job-embedded professional development solution designed to prepare educators to effectively support English Learners (ELs) by building teacher capacity to make content accessible to EL students through evidence-based modules and instructional strategies. The sole source justification is supported by an attached vendor letter, and the procurement will proceed through a 15 business day posting process in accordance with Florida Statute 287.057(3) following the completion of this certification form.
The document does not contain specific pricing information, contract term details, renewal options, or funding source requirements. No response dates, due dates, or award dates are specified in the certification form. The District determined that this product and service are available only from the indicated vendor, which constitutes the basis for the sole source procurement request rather than issuing a competitive call for bids. Interested parties have the right to file a protest within the timeframe prescribed under Florida Statutes Section 120.57(3), with failure to file within the prescribed period constituting a waiver of proceedings under Chapter 120, Florida Statutes.
