Home-Schooling Liaison

The Newburgh Enlarged City School District in Orange County, New York, is soliciting proposals for a home-schooling liaison consultant through RFP #07302025-A. The primary objective is to secure a qualified professional to manage home-schooling assignments for approximately 165 students in grades K-12. Key responsibilities include maintaining comprehensive records in compliance with New York State Education Department regulations, providing quarterly student progress updates to the district and parents, documenting program completions and assessments, and facilitating seamless transitions between home and traditional schooling environments. The proposal submission deadline is July 30, 2025, at 1:00 PM, with vendors required to submit four original hardcopies and one electronic copy on a thumb drive. The tentative Board of Education approval is scheduled for August 12, 2025, with the initial contract term running from August 13, 2025, through June 30, 2026. The district reserves the option to extend the contract for up to four additional one-year periods. Proposers must demonstrate necessary qualifications, certifications, and licenses, and must maintain comprehensive insurance coverage including worker's compensation, general liability, and professional liability insurance.

The RFP does not explicitly indicate specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Proposers must complete several mandatory certifications, including non-collusive bidding, Iran Divestment Act compliance, and sexual harassment prevention documentation. The contract emphasizes strict data privacy and security requirements, mandating compliance with Section 2-d of the New York State Education Law regarding confidentiality of student, teacher, and principal information. While specific budget ranges are not detailed in the provided documentation, the RFP specifies that pricing for services must remain firm throughout the contract duration, with invoices to be structured with detailed hourly labor rates. Payment terms are established as net thirty (30) days from invoice receipt. The procurement appears to be an open competition seeking a qualified consultant to provide specialized home-schooling liaison services for the district, with a focus on comprehensive student record management and educational support.
