Committee chair introduced the package of sole-source items. Staff said the requests include Safe and Civil Schools for training and support for schools; Career Safe LLC to support OSHA certification offerings through CTE; SolidProfessor for drafting courses; VEX Robotics Incorporated for district robotics competitions; Project Lead The Way for state-adopted CTE courses and teacher training; and Skillstruck to support Python programming courses and supplemental resources for middle school computer science teachers.

Staff also said the district uses a certification vendor to support Microsoft, Adobe and drafting certifications; in the meeting staff referenced Certiport and then corrected the name to Sentiport. Committee members asked no substantive questions before voting to forward each sole-source request to the full board by voice vote, recorded as 4-0 in favor.

These committee votes formally forward the procurement requests for full-board consideration; they do not constitute final contract awards. Staff indicated presenters for several items were available to answer questions at the full-board meeting. The committee’s next meeting is scheduled for June 25 at 10 a.m. via Zoom.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Union County Public Schools Board of Education Curriculum Committee Meeting (May 28, 2025)","oneSentenceSummary","The Union County Public Schools Curriculum Committee voted 4-0 to forward several sole-source purchase requests — including Safe and Civil Schools, Career Safe LLC, SolidProfessor, VEX Robotics, Project Lead The Way, Skillstruck and a certification vendor listed as Certiport then corrected to Sentiport — to the full board for consideration.","taxTitle","Union County Public Schools, School Districts, North Carolina","taxId",14185,"location","North Carolina","headline","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":56,"_74":56},6220826,"UCPS committee forwards 2025-26 digital resource renewals to full board",21,43115,64120,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3616147-d1a68d55fa523eb91e4f8c4a24013789&start=43&end=64","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3616147-d1a68d55fa523eb91e4f8c4a24013789/thumbnail_43115.jpg","/articles/6220826/North-Carolina/UCPS-committee-forwards-2025-26-digital-resource-renewals-to-full-board","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6220826-554a57f86f8aabea3a2fdefc753503cb/orig.mp4?Expires=1771195585&Signature=g8BWdQXQiaZQ1wDA4UmaAwfHpMXiAp7de3oCrvKk6914pIrBhnxASjeubo5A~n1K6HFEr-qKvxzwdbF1x-m67EYyu8rU0cK-xevF0W3HOU5AjH8jRNc5aXf9Icd4p6-hwbddNjLKjTHddPZJJASiGv7dw~rlxQzpZmfTw1YQnopa55HuxwWLVsS9I--XA09uLQZzp36rOrWp1S63847gWzkugf6xVZUI7HPSyRTw1qkLjFF-6uVBo4t46iIfxWzGiDCGDeQoQgxPTAYCLsv6GlvVNqtP64fOkuAJH9Zkv7EFm0BMaPp~w13HpQVPpxhXUGy4wIn8fTcD2RWYfi5oMw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","On May 28 the Union County Public Schools Curriculum Committee voted 4-0 to send a package of digital resource renewals for the 2025-26 school year to the full school board.

Dr. Rogers told committee members, “We’ll start right off by seeking your approval for digital resource renewals,” and summarized the memo the committee received that lists the vendors and purposes. The renewals include Edmentum for credit recovery; Instructure, which provides the district’s Canvas and Learn platforms; and Curriculum Associates, the district’s universal screening system for reading and math.

Casey Rimmer, the district’s executive director for curriculum and instruction, was present for questions. Committee members did not ask substantive questions during the presentation, and the committee approved a motion to forward the renewals to the full board by a 4-0 vote.

The packet sent to the board will be considered by the full school board at a later meeting; the committee’s action was only to forward the items, not to finalize purchases or contract awards. The committee’s next meeting is scheduled for June 25 at 10 a.m. via Zoom.","The Union County Public Schools Curriculum Committee voted 4-0 to send a package of digital resource renewals for the 2025-26 school year to the full board, including Edmentum, Instructure (Canvas/Learn) and Curriculum Associates universal screening tools.","actionData","errors"]
