Superintendent outlines Everest Analytics partnership to refocus strategic plan; estimated cost ~$93,100 per year
Summary
Pojoaque Valley Public Schools proposed a partnership with Everest Analytics to make the strategic plan student-outcomes focused, with a three-pronged approach and an estimated annual cost after discounts of roughly $93,100; the board asked questions about fee structure and procurement.
Superintendent Dr. Segura presented a proposed partnership with Everest Analytics to refine the district strategic plan so it focuses on student outcomes and provides monthly and quarterly implementation monitoring.
Dr. Segura described a three-pronged approach: (1) collaborative strategic-plan refinement with staff and community input; (2) monthly monitoring of high-impact strategies with real-time implementation tracking; and (3) quarterly outcome reporting suitable for board review. She told the board the vendor prepared a menu of options and that administration recommended a focused, holistic engagement rather than piecemeal purchases.
The presentation included a price summary; Dr. Segura said the total list price was about $98,000 and that contract discounts produced an estimated annual cost of roughly $93,100. She also told the board the district intends to use a CES statewide price agreement for procurement, which administration said can permit contracting without a separate competitive bid when the agreement covers the services.
Board members asked whether additional services would be add-ons or included in the initial package and whether the board would be involved in periodic reviews; Dr. Segura said the first executive leadership session with the vendor is set for Sept. 9 and that deliverables and phased engagement would be defined during kickoff work.
Several members requested itemized deliverables and recurring reporting so the board can track implementation and hold the vendor to measurable outcomes. Administration agreed to return with a clarified scope and timeline after the leadership kickoff.
