A meeting of the Selection Committee was held on March 13, 2014. Based on the recommendation of the Committee, it is recommended that RFP No. 039-PP10 be awarded to Ransom Everglades School, Inc., for renovation and use of the Track at the School, in accordance with the terms and conditions of a lease agreement, to be entered into between the parties, as detailed below. Page 1 of 4 F-60

Lease Agreement The lease agreement ( Agreement ) with Ransom for renovation and subsequent use of the Track shall contain, substantially, the following terms and conditions: Ransom shall renovate, at Ransom s sole cost and expense, the existing Track, provided the plans are first submitted to and approved by the District.

The Superintendent may, upon written request from Ransom, extend the deadline for completion of construction, by up to six (6) additional months, provided such extension is due to unforeseen circumstances; upon completion of the Track renovations, Ransom shall have non-exclusive use of the Track for the operation and maintenance of its track and field program, including hosting of meets; an initial lease term of ten (10) years, with five (5) one-year extension periods, at the Board s sole discretion, provided Ransom is not in default of any of the terms of the Agreement; rent for the initial lease term, as well as any renewal terms, shall be $1 per year; the Board shall have exclusive use of the Track during regular school hours on regular school days. In addition, the Board, at its sole option, shall have use of the Track after regular school hours, as required for practices and home games, special School events and functions, intramural sports, extracurricular athletic activities and summer school; Ransom acknowledges and agrees that the Board s use of the Track shall at all times be given priority in determining the schedule of use by the parties.

Ransom s use of the Track shall be non-exclusive, and shall be limited to no more than Monday through Friday, starting fifteen (15) minutes after the end of the official school day, and ending at sunset, as well as two (2) Saturdays per month, during times as mutually agreed to by the School Administrator and Ransom s designated representative; the School Administrator and Ransom s designated representative shall meet prior to the effective date of the Agreement, to establish a mutually agreeable schedule for use of the Track by Ransom for the first one-year period of the initial lease term, within the allowable days and times noted hereinabove; thereafter, the School Administrator and Ransom s designated representative shall meet prior to the start of each regular school year, or as soon thereafter as possible, to establish the schedule for use of the Track by Ransom for the upcoming school year, within the allowable days and time periods; in the event of a dispute between the parties of any type or nature, including but not limited to the establishment or implementation of a schedule of use, the School Administrator and Ransom s designated representative shall meet, upon request of either party, to review and resolve the issue or dispute, which resolution may include, without limitation, establishing a new schedule of use for that school year. In the event the School Administrator and Ransom s designated representative cannot reach agreement on a particular issue, the matter will be brought before the Board s Chief Facilities Officer, or designee, who shall review the matter and make a determination, which determination shall be final and binding; the Board shall be responsible for maintenance of the Track, in conformance with the District s standard maintenance schedule and criteria. Ransom shall pay to the Board, on an annual basis, a prorata portion of the costs borne by the Board to maintain the Track, with Ransom to reimburse the Board based on Ransom s proportional use of the Track; the Board may cancel the Agreement, without cause, only if the portion of the School site housing the Track is required for a District purpose, as it may be determined by the Board. In addition, the Board may cancel the Agreement, for cause, in the event of damage or destruction of the Track, other than damage or destruction caused by Ransom, which the Board chooses not to repair, default by Ransom, which default is not cured, or in the event the Board sells the portion of the School site housing the Track. In addition, the Board may immediately cancel the Agreement for cause and without penalty, and without providing Ransom an opportunity to cure, if Ransom (1) fails to comply with the Jessica Lunsford Act, or (2) assigns or sublets the Track, without the Board s prior written consent, which may be withheld at the Board s sole discretion; Page 3 of 4

Ransom may cancel the Agreement at any time, by providing the Board with thirty (30) days prior written notice; and for purposes of the Agreement, the Superintendent of Schools, or his/her designee shall be the party designated by the Board to grant or deny any and all approvals required under the Agreement dealing with modifying periods and/or areas of use, placing Ransom in default, identifying and establishing the construction area, confirmation of the commencement date of the Agreement, and reviewing and approving all matters relating to Ransom s renovation of the Track, or future construction of additional recreational facilities, if any.

Office of Superintendent of Schools March 19, 2014 Board Meeting of April 9, 2014 Financial Services Richard H. Hinds, Chief Financial Officer SUBJECT: REQUEST AUTHORIZATION TO ENTER INTO A CONTRACTUAL SERVICES AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE SCHOOL BOARD OF MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, FLORIDA, AND BLACKBOARD CONNECT, INC., PURSUANT TO REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS NO. 030-PP10 INSTANT MESSAGING AND PARENT NOTIFICATION SYSTEM COMMITTEE: INNOVATION, EFFICIENCY & GOVERNMENTAL RELATIONS LINK TO STRATEGIC FRAMEWORK: FINANCIAL EFFICIENCY/STABILITY Request For Proposals No. 030-PP10 INSTANT MESSAGING AND PARENT NOTIFICATION SYSTEM, is to deliver messages regarding attendance, emergencies and school notices, to parents, students and employees of Miami-Dade County Public Schools. This is a term proposal. Three (3) proposers responded to this advertised solicitation. The term of the proposal shall be for an initial three (3) year period and may, by mutual agreement between The School Board of Miami-Dade County, Florida, and the awardee, be extended for an additional two (2) year period and, if needed, ninety (90) days beyond the expiration date of the current extension period. A meeting of the Selection Committee was held on February 25, 2014, to evaluate the proposals received in response to the solicitation. Three (3) proposals were presented for consideration: Blackboard Connect, Inc. (Connect-ED ); Parlant Technology (Parent Link); and Reliance Communications, Inc. (School Messenger). All three firms were invited to participate in oral presentations, which were held on March 13, 2014. The proposals were ranked based on the criteria set forth in the Request For Proposals. Based on these rankings, the Committee recommended Blackboard Connect, Inc. (Connect ED ), the highest rated proposal. Page 1 of 3 E-142

In the proposal, Blackboard Connect, Inc., presented the Connect-ED service, an outbound instant messaging and parent notification system, built exclusively for the K- 12 market with state-of-the-art technology that requires no hardware, no software, and no additional lines to operate. The system provides an unlimited and user-friendly method for sending information to parents regarding student attendance, PTA/PTSA events, and emergency information, using voice, e-mail, SMS text, and social media. The Connect-ED system is a self-service, web-based system, enabling school and District administrators to access the web, create messages, select the target audience, choose the language and send the message, 24/7. With this tool, school and District administrators can notify and update parents and staff within minutes of an emergency situation from any phone and distribute messages to all students in the District in under four hours; school staff can simultaneously notify all parents of absent children, via prerecorded messages. In addition, School Police and School Operations will also be able to alert parents and the public. Blackboard Connect, Inc. also is providing TipTxt, an additional feature, at no cost to the District. TipTxt provides a two-way communication service, that will allow the District to provide an easy-to-use tipline for students, parents and staff, to report safety issues, including bullying, abusive behavior, crime and mental health issues. Reports will be electronic and by location, allowing principals to review daily attendance calls online, for usage, number of missed calls, trends, etc. There is also a 911 Dial-in Messaging feature that allows authorized users to record, verify and execute an all call or emergency team message from any telephone. The system can also send out mass e-mails. The District will receive the backing of Client Care Specialists, who will assist the District with new user training, refresher training, new data transfers or updates, technical support, and proactive usage analysis, via a toll-free support line, throughout the life of the contract. In order to minimize the training requirements for the school sites, as well as technology implementation costs, a multi-year contract was structured. This is an initial three-year contract, with options to extend for an additional two-year period, estimated to cost approximately $426,000 per year, based upon student enrollment. The proposed cost is $1.42 per enrolled student; administrators, faculty and staff are included at no incremental cost. The pricing structure includes a customizable mobile application. The District licensing includes up to 525 schools and administrative offices. The proposed cost reflects a reduction in pricing from the current contract at $1.80 per enrolled student, per year. Page 2 of 3

A representative from the Office of Management and Compliance Audits participated in the committee meeting and the appropriate cabinet member has reviewed and concurs with the item.
