Description
Oakland Unified School District is seeking qualified community‑based organizations to serve as Expanded Learning Lead Agencies that will design, deliver, and manage full‑day (9‑hour) summer and intersession enrichment programs for K‑12 (including TK/K) students across district schools and approved community sites. The contract is funded primarily through California Department of Education grants at a fixed rate of $30.54 per student per day, with the expectation that agencies supplement grant dollars with additional resources. The award is a one‑year term, renewable annually for up to five years, and requires compliance with staffing ratios, background‑check requirements, and equity mandates.
• Program models include Collaborative, Independent, and Off‑Site Community‑Based options, each delivering a 5‑week, 9‑hour‑per‑day schedule.
• Staffing must meet a 20:1 student‑to‑staff ratio (10:1 for TK/K) and all personnel need fingerprint clearance, TB testing, and minimum 48 college units or an instructional aide exam.
• Compensation is $30.54 per student per day; agencies may not charge fees to unduplicated students and must secure additional funding (private grants, volunteers, in‑kind support).
• Eligibility now includes any qualified community‑based organization (amendment 1 expands beyond nonprofits).
• Key deadlines: questions due Nov 21 2025, proposal due Dec 3 2025, award notice Jan 13 2026, contract start May 1 2026.
• Extensive documentation required (budget template, audited financials, org chart, 8‑page narrative, multiple exhibits).
