THE 30-SECOND BRIEF

What's planned

Union School District is drafting Policy 5131.8 to regulate student use of smartphones and other mobile communication devices on campus. The policy defines when devices may be used, how confiscation and searches are handled, and clarifies that the district is not responsible for lost or damaged devices.

What it means for vendors

This is a governance change rather than a named purchase, but it will shape how classroom technology, digital safety tools, and monitoring systems are selected and used. Vendors of classroom management, filtering, monitoring, and student safety solutions may want to engage staff on how this policy will be operationalized and supported with technology and training.

Background

Policy cites Education Code sections 48901.5, 48901.7, 49050-49051 and notes the status as DRAFT and proposed.

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 Los Gatos Union Elementary issue an RFP for this project?

Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Los Gatos Union Elementary's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
