THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
The district heard a detailed presentation from Complex Systems Innovations on the federal Project AWARE grant, worth up to $1.5 million per year for 5 years to expand student mental health supports. The board voted to move forward with submitting an application by the July 27, 2026 deadline, covering staffing, required activities, and training over the grant term. This opens a large, multi-year funding stream for mental health programs, curricula, training, and related IT or service tools if the award is made.
Grant discussion included 3-tier approach, staffing requirements, implementation timeline, and staff training/support needs.

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 Cherokee County Schools issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Cherokee County 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 Cherokee County Schools before the RFP is published?
Vendors who reach out during the planning window can help shape requirements and build relationships with the decision-makers running the project. A free Civic IQ account sends you the pre-RFPs that fit what you sell, with the AI brief and the decision makers for the top matches in each digest.
