THE 30-SECOND BRIEF

What's planned

The superintendent reported that the RFP to outsource custodial services was completed but proposals were much higher than expected, so the district closed the RFP and will keep custodial in-house. They will explore cost-saving ideas for the upcoming school year instead of outsourcing. Facilities and janitorial vendors should treat this as a future-cycle opportunity focused on efficiency solutions, targeted services, or a better-structured outsourcing approach when budgets allow.

Background

District will continue with in-house custodial staff and is evaluating alternative cost-saving strategies for 2026-2027.
