Background: Edgenuity, Inc. was first awarded a contract as a result of RFP 696 for GED O2 Software Programming Services which closed on June 18, 2010. Under this RFP, Edgenuity provided the software program Education 2020 (E2020). The term of the contract was October 1, 2010 through July 30, 2011. The following year, a Board approved purchase order (P745978) was issued under the same bidding basis. RFP 789 for Online Credited Course for Remediation and Acceleration in Grades 6 - 12 closed on May 31, 2012. The contract was for one year with two, one-year options to extend, which were both exercised. The contract was in effect from October 1, 2012 through September 30, 2015. RFP 893 for Remediation and Acceleration of Online Credited Courses for Students in Grades 6 through 12 closed on June 18, 2015. The contract was for one year with two, one-year options to extend, which were both exercised. The contract was in effect from January 1, 2016 through June 30, 2019.

In 2018, a new RFP was solicited, RFP 996 for Recovery and Acceleration of Online Credited Courses for Students in Grades 6 through 12. RFP 996 closed on November 15, 2018. Edgenuity was granted a one-year contract with two one-year options to renew if certain performance metrics were met. The contract was executed for a first one-year term of July 1, 2019 through June 30, 2020. The contract was extended for a first one-year term of July 1, 2020 through June 30, 2021. One extension option remains. In March 2019, the Board authorized a $350,000 contract for the first one-year term. In March 2020, the Board authorized an additional $350,000 contract for the second year of the contract. To date, the contract has paid out $350,000, and there is a $350,000 encumbrance remaining for 2020-21.
