Comprehensive Tutoring Program for Elementary Schools

The County of DeKalb, Georgia, is seeking qualified vendors to implement a comprehensive tutoring program aimed at enhancing academic achievement in six elementary schools within the county. The primary focus is on improving student proficiency in reading and mathematics, with particular emphasis on third-grade literacy and foundational skills. The program is scheduled to run from November 2025 through March 2026, and the contract value is estimated to range between $500,000 and $1,500,000. Vendors are required to submit sealed responses through the county’s eProcurement Portal by November 7, 2025, with late submissions not accepted. The solicitation emphasizes small group tutoring sessions conducted twice weekly, the use of bilingual materials, and alignment with Georgia Standards of Excellence to ensure instructional consistency and effectiveness. The procurement process involves a Request for Quotation (RFQ) that details the scope of work, including the need for qualified tutors, adherence to insurance requirements, and the submission of relevant documentation such as reference and contractor affidavits. The RFQ also specifies that the contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. The initiative is managed by the DeKalb County Human Services Department, through its Office of Youth Services and Office of Partnerships and External Affairs. Interested vendors can contact the designated point of contact, Jazael Ellzey, via email or phone for further information. This program aims to support early literacy and math skills, thereby contributing to improved educational outcomes in the targeted elementary schools.
