Section 2.0 - Project Overview

Francis Howell R-III School District (“District” or “FHSD”) is seeking proposals from qualified vendors

to provide a comprehensive, secure, and user-friendly K–12 assessment management and instructional

assessment platform.

The District currently utilizes a digital assessment platform to support the development, administration,

scoring, analysis, and reporting of classroom, common, benchmark, formative, and summative

assessments. The District is seeking a solution that will replace its existing platform and provide

educators and administrators with an effective system for managing assessments and using assessment

data to inform instruction.

The District is seeking a solution that can support both teacher-created assessments and

District-developed common assessments, while providing appropriate tools for assessment creation,

administration, scoring, data analysis, reporting, collaboration, and instructional decision-making.

The District does not intend to prescribe a particular software architecture or product model. Vendors are

encouraged to propose their standard solution and identify how their platform meets the requirements

outlined in this RFP.
