DESCRIPTION
The government authority in Providence, Rhode Island, seeks vendor services to audit special education identification, service delivery, and program effectiveness. The audit will examine patterns of identification across student groups, evaluate referral and evaluation practices, identify potential causes of over-identification or disproportionality, and recommend strategies to improve equity and reduce inappropriate referrals.
The selected vendor will review five years of district special education data for pre-kindergarten through grade 8 students. The analysis will assess identification rates by race or ethnicity, dual-identification status, gender, socioeconomic status, grade level, school, and disability category, including calculations of risk ratios and disproportionate indicators.
The engagement will also review co-teaching implementation, consultation models, resource room utilization, related-services delivery, scheduling, and staffing allocations. All questions must be submitted no later than September 4, 2026.
