These vendors have been identified to provide supplemental instructional resources for special education teachers and students supported through the Division Student Services, for more than $100,000.00 per vendor but not to exceed a total contracted amount of $­­1,100,000.
Why: According to Board Policy IFA-Instructional Materials and Content, the District must provide access to instructional resources including, but not limited to, textbooks and supplemental materials.

Details: Three (3) vendors have been carefully vetted and identified to ensure the selected instructional resources provide equity and access to support the full and rigorous implementation of the DCSD curriculum at all grade levels among the school district’s diverse student population. The three (3) selected vendors are: Frog Street, Goalbook-Enome and News2You (Everway).
Financial impact: The total contract amount will not exceed $1,100,000.
