THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
During the CEO report, Isaiah Pettway noted that the district has received a request for consideration of a charter contract from the Dream Academy. He explained that there are a number of items the applicant still needs to provide, and they have 30 days to respond, indicating an active but incomplete charter authorization process.
If the Dream Academy advances, it will likely need support with start-up planning, curriculum, staffing, IT, facilities, and compliance. Vendors that specialize in charter school launches, back-office services, and educational programming can monitor this 30-day window and position themselves as partners either to the prospective charter operator or to the district as the potential authorizer needing oversight and performance frameworks.
The request is for consideration of a charter contract; authorization is not yet granted and additional documentation is pending.

Questions about this project
What is a pre-RFP?
A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.

Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Highland Park City Schools's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
How can vendors engage with Highland Park City Schools before the RFP is published?
