Cloud-Based Family Engagement and Student Success Platform

Proposal Deadline: June 12th, 2026 at 10:00 AM CST

Contract Term: July 1st, 2026 – June 30th, 2027

The request is for a cloud-based family engagement and student success platform designed to unify school-to-home communication, enhance family involvement, and deliver actionable data insights to educators. The platform should bridge the divide between district-wide notifications and individual classroom-level interactions, integrating seamlessly with the district's Student Information System (SIS).

Key features include the ability to create and distribute templated, professionally designed newsletters with automatic translation to support multilingual families, and real-time automated translation for over 100 languages across all communication channels. The system must enable broadcasting messages via SMS, email, voice/phone calls, and mobile app notifications from a unified workflow interface. Additionally, the solution should allow instructional staff to securely share media, classroom updates, and volunteer sign-ups while maintaining privacy of personal contact details.

Other requirements include automated, multi-tiered attendance notifications for both positive reinforcement and intervention, direct messaging to parent contacts to address chronic absenteeism, and automated identification of students at risk based on specific thresholds. Furthermore, the platform should offer capabilities for the secure recording, tagging, and sharing of instructional videos for peer review and self-reflection, customizable observation rubrics, professional development goal tracking, and integrated workflows for time-stamped feedback, video evaluations, and structured formative reports.
