The state of Texas is seeking freelance content contributors to update and enhance reading and language arts materials. Multiple vendors may be selected and engaged to fulfill the needs of clients and various divisions. The primary objective is to secure professional writing services to revise existing Reading Language Arts resources so they align with the latest educational standards and are accessible, engaging, and grade-level appropriate.

Contributors will be responsible for enhancing the language, tone, and structure of instructional materials, ensuring clarity, age-appropriateness, and inclusivity. The scope includes revising reading passages—such as fiction, nonfiction, poetry, and drama—in lesson documents that may include slide decks, demonstration of learning activities, student exercises, advanced materials, and answer keys. All revisions must maintain the integrity of the original learning objectives and instructional intent, with a focus on readability and cultural sensitivity. Materials should be free of grammatical errors, redundancies, and any language that could be considered biased or culturally insensitive. All questions regarding this opportunity must be submitted by June 3, 2026.
