Contract AwardEducation & TrainingDetected Jun 24, 2026

The June 24, 2026 agenda recommends approval of an agreement between Palermo Union Elementary School District and the Butte County Office of Education in the amount of $330,311 for Expanded Learning and Summer Enrichment Programs from July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027, funded by ELOP. The attached agreement defines after-school expansion staffing (baseline TK–6 classrooms with specified ratios), 30 days of summer enrichment programming, and an annual ELO-P staff support fee at Golden Hills and Helen Wilcox, with BCOE operating the programs and Palermo providing facilities, meals, and certain support services. This shows a sizeable investment in extended learning, enrichment, and after-school services operated through a county partnership.For other vendors, it confirms ELOP funding is being used to significantly expand out-of-school programming, creating opportunities around enrichment content (arts, STEM, PE), transportation, program evaluation, and potential future shifts toward in-district operation or different providers once this contract term concludes.

Paid from Expanded Learning Opportunities Program (ELOP) funding; payment is structured in three installments mirroring ASES funding practices.

Contract Award

Jefferson County Public Schools entered a professional services contract with Magnet Schools of America for NIMSL coaching, strategic planning, and implementation support for magnet schools.

It is already awarded, but it signals follow-on magnet program support, training, and possible expansion needs.

Pre-RFP

The agenda calls for an AOD symposium planning update. AOD likely refers to alcohol and other drugs, and the item suggests the task force is still shaping the event rather than awarding work. That makes this useful for training, event support, and speaker or logistics follow-up.

Budget Planning

The agenda included a Board Plan of Improvement discussion. The item is listed as a planning discussion rather than an award or solicitation, so it points to upcoming district priorities but not a selected vendor. A seller would watch for defined initiatives, staffing needs, or funded action items that come out of the plan.
