ELA Curriculum 6-12 rfp#HCPS-ELA_32824

Hertford County Public Schools (HCPS) in North Carolina is issuing a Request for Proposals (RFP) for a 6-12 English Language Arts (ELA) curriculum. HCPS is seeking high-quality, standards-aligned, Science of Reading research-based ELA instructional materials to develop students' literacy skills. The anticipated start date for the contract is July 1, 2024, and proposals are due by April 15, 2024 at 2:00 PM EST. HCPS is open to considering both single and multiple vendors for this opportunity and requires pricing information, but does not have a specific format. The district will allow purchase orders to be sent directly to vendors and will only consider programs that align to the North Carolina ELA curriculum, with vendor interaction primarily focused on teachers rather than direct student engagement.

HCPS encourages participation from historically underutilized businesses (HUBs) and will consider HUB certification during the evaluation. The district requires at least two references from majority black & brown districts and/or rural counties. Award may be based on best value analysis, not necessarily the lowest price, and is contingent upon funding availability. HCPS does not have a specific budget range for this procurement, but the contract will be awarded to the responsible bidder(s) who best match the district's needs.
