The 30-second brief
6 pre-RFPs (projects, hiring and grants) found in Baker School District 5J's meetings, most in administration & finance and environmental services. The latest, from Oct 20: The board had an integrated pest management plan on the October 20, 2026 action agenda. The agenda does not show the plan text or whether a new service, renewal, or policy update is involved, so this remains a scheduled decision. No vendor or contract value is named. The item still matters because it can drive future pest control services or plan administration.
Capital Projects leads its tracked contracts and projects, followed by Professional Services and Administration & Finance.
Latest awards: Bluecross Blueshield for blueCross BlueShield Renewal on Baker Agenda (Aug 2025) and Helix Community Schools for helix agreement amendments up for consideration (Aug 2025).
