However, if the apparel includes any customization, it is not covered under the scope of this RFP. Vendors that provide custom apparel should instead submit a response to the RFP for Awards, Custom, and Promotional Items. Submitted: 4/29/2026 04:15:36 PM (CT) Q2: Could you please provide an example of a curriculum support resource or instructional support resource that is not in the format of a book, publication, software, subscription, or web-based application and would qualify for this RFP? Not necessarily a brand or product name but a type/medium of curriculum or instructional support resource that is not excluded. A2: A good way to think of it is the District is excluding content delivery platforms and published materials, but not necessarily physical, facilitator-led, or manipulable supports. We are looking for resources that are tangible, classroom-embedded, and facilitation-oriented, not dependent on digital access or subscription and that are supporting instruction rather than replacing curriculum. Below are a few examples of acceptable curriculum/instructional support resources: 1. Hands-on instructional kits or manipulatives Example: A classroom set of math manipulatives (e.g., base-ten blocks, algebra tiles, fraction circles) bundled with lesson guides printed on cards or binders. Why it qualifies: It’s a physical instructional tool, not a book or software, and directly supports curriculum implementation. 2. Teacher facilitation toolkits Example: A boxed set that includes laminated lesson cards, discussion prompts, task cards, and classroom activity guides for a specific subject (e.g., STEM challenges, literacy centers). Why it qualifies: These are instructional supports used during teaching, not standalone publications or digital products. 3. Professional development workshop materials (non-digital) Example: In-person training packages that include facilitator guides, printed protocols, role-play scenarios, and classroom implementation materials. Why it qualifies: The value is in the training and facilitation process, with materials as support—not a published curriculum or software. Submitted: 4/27/2026 09:46:43 AM (CT) Q3: Does this include Audio Visual Equipment? A3: Yes, as long as the intended purpose for the equipment is for instructional use only. Submitted: 4/24/2026 12:46:55 PM (CT) Q4: Does Humble ISD give preference to RFP vendors over purchasing co-ops vendors? A4: Yes, we typically give preference to our own RFPs before utilizing cooperative agreements. Submitted: 4/23/2026 10:49:26 AM (CT)
