Shelby County Board of Education considered $2.9M iReady contract; meeting minutes not yet published
The Shelby County Board of Education was scheduled to vote on a $2,949,725 contract for Curriculum Associates' iReady assessment and intervention tools for grades K-12 at its June 30 business meeting. However, minutes from that meeting and several others held in late June have not yet been published, so the outcomes are not confirmed.
Contracts and Policies on the Agenda
The June 23 work session and June 30 business meeting both included a consent agenda with multiple contracts. Alongside the iReady contract, the board was scheduled to consider a $2,550,150 RCM Technology contract for 35 school nurses and 2 field liaisons, a $539,464 Reading Horizons dyslexia intervention contract, a $537,030 Curriculum Associates ELLevation Pro contract for English learners, and a $333,850 University of Virginia Partnership for Leaders in Education turnaround program.
The June 30 agenda also listed dual enrollment memorandums of understanding with six college partners totaling up to $1,220,000. A first reading of proposed policies on board social media, employee telework, non-tenured teacher dismissal, and reduction in workforce was also scheduled.
Because minutes are not yet published for either meeting, it is not confirmed which items were approved.
