From the meeting
Hamilton County asked the state to expand the Statewide School Resource Officer Program Grant so districts can use it for School Security Officers (SSOs) when law enforcement cannot provide School Resource Officers (SROs). The resolution cites $75,000 per year, per SRO, per school under the current program and says larger districts need more reliable coverage. That creates a funding signal for school security staffing and training.

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.
When will Bradford Special School District issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Bradford Special School District's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
