North Canton City Schools approved a contracted agreement with Music Theatre International's Broadway Junior Collection to license an amateur production of "Roald Dahl's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Jr." for the North Canton Middle School musical. The contract is not to exceed the amount specified in the attached agreement, with all costs to be covered by ticket sales. This indicates the district’s ongoing use of licensed theatrical content and related production resources for middle school programming. While the specific license for this show is already decided, vendors supporting school theatre (sets, sound/lighting, costumes, digital ticketing, and student production training) can target future productions and complementary services for the middle and high school performing arts programs.
All licensing and production costs are to be paid from ticket sales per the agreement.

The academic support section lays out a comprehensive Response to Intervention model and MTSS framework including Tier I–III supports, dedicated intervention (Explorer) and enrichment (Pathfinder) blocks, co‑teaching between general and special educators, and regular data meetings. Action steps cite professional development and coaching for intervention blocks, use of Educator’s Handbook for data collection on academics, attendance, and behavior, and monthly site visits from Northcentral Arkansas Education Service Cooperative specialists for literacy, math, and science support. This architecture implies the district is actively shaping its intervention schedule, data workflows, and co‑teaching practices through at least 2026‑27, but no specific RTI/MTSS software, scheduling tools, or tutoring/content vendors are mentioned. Providers of MTSS platforms, intervention curricula, progress monitoring tools, or coaching services can engage around helping manage Explorer/Pathfinder blocks, streamline data use with Educator’s Handbook, and support the Smart Goal of improving outcomes for multilingual learners (40% of EL 3rd graders at Level 2+ in ATLAS ELA in 2026‑27).
The plan references specific tiers, scheduled meetings, and dedicated staff (academic interventionis...
West Elementary’s science needs assessment highlights that students struggle with grade-level scientific practices and that curriculum implementation has been inconsistent, prompting reliance on Amplify diagnostic testing and Cambium/ATLAS to monitor progress. The plan sets Smart Goal Four for SY 2026‑27: 50% of students in grades 3‑5 will score at Levels 3 or 4 on ATLAS Science, backed by a theory of action centered on consistent instruction and improved support from leadership. While specific core science materials are not detailed beyond Amplify diagnostics, the multi‑year focus on addressing scope and sequence gaps suggests room for curriculum alignment support, lab or inquiry resources, and teacher PD in NGSS- or state-standards-aligned instruction. Vendors providing science curriculum, formative assessment tools, or coaching can approach the principal and curriculum coordinator about helping standardize the program and leverage Amplify and ATLAS data to drive instruction toward the 50% proficiency target.
The document notes program inconsistency and gaps in scope and sequence as current problems, creatin...
The math section of the 2026-2031 improvement plan commits West Elementary to fully implement i‑Ready Mathematics for grades K‑5 beginning in SY 2025‑26, along with vertical alignment work and the adoption of standards-based grading (K‑2 first, then 3‑5 by SY 2027‑28). The school identifies gaps in scope and sequence and student difficulty with grade-level math operations as key issues, with multiple measures of learning coming from i‑Ready diagnostics and Cambium/ATLAS screeners. This creates a multi‑year need for curriculum-aligned math resources, implementation support, grading and reporting tools, and PD around standards-based instruction. Vendors can help with data-informed intervention planning, standards-based grading workflows, and teacher training to meet Smart Goal Three (48% of K‑5 students at Levels 3 or 4 on ATLAS math by 2026‑27). A useful next discussion would explore how external platforms or consulting can integrate with i‑Ready and ATLAS data to support RTI and grading changes.
The math initiative is explicitly framed as long-term, with emphasis on consistent use, fidelity, an...
