Importance: High

Hello Craig,

Hope you had a great weekend.

Here is written confirmation of our Math in Focus K-5 discussions from last week.

1. The 2013 Math in Focus materials in the attached Quotation Form are guaranteed by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt and Northwest Textbook Depository to be

available to Seattle Public Schools for the entire 7 year SPS K-5 math adoption period.

2. The 2013 Math in Focus materials in the attached quotation form will be available to Seattle Public Schools at the listed prices and the prices are fixed for the

entire 7 years.

3. Seattle Public Schools can purchase the Math in Focus program under the attached terms for this coming school year (2014/2015) or next school year

(2015/2016).

4. The cost per student for Math in Focus will be the same regardless of the number of students or the number of schools that choose the program. You can use a

linear calculation of $228 per student. The only thing that might be lower (but not higher) is if a school has had previous Math in Focus professionaldevelopment, in which case we can save them some money on the PD portion of the cost.

5. The new 2015 copyright of the Math in Focus K-5 materials will be available for implementation this August for the 2014/2015 school year.

6. By special arrangement, the new 2015 copyright of the Math in Focus K-5 materials will be available to SPS at the same prices and on the same terms as the

2013 copyright and as detailed in the attached quotation form. The 2013 matching prices for the 2015 copyright are also fixed for the 7 years RFP period.

There will be no price increase for the 2015 Math in Focus copyright for Seattle Public Schools.

7. What are the differences between the 2013 MIF and the just released 2015?

They are the same program the differences are minor. Attached is a slide detailing the differences. Marshall Cavendish has created an outline that shows a

pathway to follow if you want to stay true to the Singapore curriculum or follow the exact content that matches CCSS. The practices in Math in Focus have always

matched the CCSS and been in depth, but there were a few places where the CCSS content aligns better in the 2015. Many school districts that adopted the 2013

Math in Focus are rolling into the 2015 copyright this August.

Please call me with any additional questions.

Thank you!

Hi James,

It was nice speaking with you this morning.

I asked the Committee if they would agree to a Consultant for Math in Focus or Go Math, and their

reply is below.

We will take a video or audio only. And we will only present to the committee if we have one from

each of the publishers so the playing field will be even.

Our meeting starts at 8:30 AM.

Hi James,

Our Committee has another request for a meeting they are having tomorrow.

Our Math Adoption Committee has agreed that it would be helpful to see/hear any video input the publisher would be willing to send us for our April

25th meeting. They would like to see a short, concise overview detailing the program's key attributes, particularly in respect to common core and ourease of implementation concerns. Key elements from the program.

Is this possible? If so, will you please send me the link?

Hello Susan,

We hope your Texas trip went well.

Here is additional information regarding the questions that Adam Dysart and his team asked regarding

Implementation and Professional Development for Go Math! and Math in Focus.

Successful implementation of a new Common Core K-5 Math program in a large school district is

challenging.

There is a big difference between implementation in a few schools, and successful implementation in 68

schools with 1500 teachers and 30,000 students.

Below is NW contact information references if you will for large districts where HMH has recently

successfully implemented a new Common Core K-5 math program:

Hi James,

The questions keep rolling.

We have some follow-up questions:

1. What does the Professional Development entail interms of number of days, materials, etc?

2. Is there an option for HM to train our staff (train-the-trainer)and have us train our teachers, thus saving some expense?

3. What is the purpose of the year 2 PD? Is this for thesame first-year-trained teachers or just for new teachers to the program?

Importance: High

Hello Susan,

Here are answers to the additional three Math in Focus Questions:

1. What does the Professional Development entail in terms of number of days, materials, etc?

Attached is a Math in Focus Two year Professional Development Plan for SPS.

The PD Plan is an overview of the training plan and pricing designed to meet the needs of a K-

5 Math in Focus implementation for SPS.

The two year Professional Development Plan includes:

Total GRATIS Professional Development = $216,983.50

Total PAID Professional Development = $391,250.00

The Paid Professional development is included in the annual costs detailed in the Math in Focus RFP

submission.

A Two Year Implementation Calendar is included in the PD Plan.

2. Is there an option for HM to train our staff (train-the-trainer)and have us train our teachers, thus

saving some expense?

There is both direct to teachers PD and train-the-trainer PD included in the attached PD Plan.

This is the minimum PD for a successful Math in Focus Implementation.

3. What is the purpose of the year 2 PD? Is this for the same first-year-trained teachers or just for

new teachers to the program?

As detailed in the attached plan, the Math in Focus year 2 PD goes well beyond new teacher training.

Math in Focus is an excellent program. To be successful, it does require implementation and PD training

at the attached level in years 1 and 2.

Hello Susan,

Thank you for your email and questions. We are assuming that these questions are regarding Math in

Focus.

Here are detailed answers for Adam Dysart:

1. What makes the Math in Focus program so expensive?

Houghton Mifflin Harcourt (HMH) does not own the Math in Focus Program. HMH distributes Math in

Focus for the owners/authors of the program . Under the terms of that distribution agreement, the

owners of the program set pricing. They approved a 5% discount for SPS.

HMH is unable, for example, to offer the special promotions that were offered SPS on the Go Math!

Program (buy four SEs, get one free and buy one classroom manipulative kit get one free). Northwest

Pricing on Go Math!also benefits from the fact that so many Northwest school districts have adopted Go

Math! - including Anchorage School District with 30,000 students.

In addition, Math in Focus requires a significant amount of professional development. This is a significant

additional cost ($391,250 total years 1 and 2).

We are able to offer the five-year payment terms for Math in Focus as detailed in the RFP documents.

2. What was finally negotiated in terms of access/free updates?

Free updates are not included as part of the Math in Focus submission.

3. Is this their final Math in Focus number?

Yes.

Please let us know if there are any additional questions regarding either Math in Focus or Go Math!

Thank you.

Susan,

Thank you for allowing us to come in and organize the materials for for Go Math! and Math in

Focus.

We apologize the materials did not arrived as requested. James, Chris and I appreciated the chance

to put the resources together in an orderly fashion.

Hopefully the clearly marked pallets of product made life a little easier for the warehouse staff to

deliver to the school sites and Shawn Sipe is able to power through all the groupings of English and

Spanish materials with ease.

I discovered a missing box of materials for Kindergarten going to Anne Aliverti at Bryant Elementary

and have ordered a replacement box to arrive overnight.

You will receive the requested RFP paperwork tomorrow before the deadline. James and I are

reviewing it now.

Please let us know if there is anything else you need or anything we have missed in the process.

Hi James and Kari,

Our Warehouse recently received 19 pallets, for what I can tell, Go Math materials.

We asked in the RFP for each box to be addressed to the location that was provided in

the RFP-attachments #2.

All pallets are shrink-wrapped and it appears there are mixed destinations on each

pallet. The only identifying thing is a teacher name in tiny print on the mailing label.

We need to get these items moved out of our warehouse and into the schools

locations for review as soon as possible.

Would either of you, or both, please help by sorting these boxes? Please contact

Penny Guarin in our warehouse to schedule a time? [email protected] or

call 206-252-0582 to schedule an appointment to come by.

We would also like to know how many boxes/envelopes equal one set? How many

boxes for each location?

There were quite a few boxes I noticed, having my name on them. Who do these

belong to?

Below are the names of the schools and contact for each. Shawn Snipes name was to

receive one set for the Library here at JSCEE, one for the Public Library(Douglas Truth)

and both sets of Chinese/Spanish to distribute. The other five locations should have

been marked for:

Wing Luke Elementary-Wendy Walker-Bell

West Seattle Elementary-Heidi Porter

Catherine Blaine- Barb Barden

Northgate Elementary-Carolyn Burns

Bryant Elementary-Anne Aliverti

Please let me know as soon as possible if, and when you plan to stop by.

Greetings Mr. James Generaux,

Congratulations on being selected as a finalist to proceed from the RFI stage to the RFP stage for the

Districts above referenced curriculum adoption.

Seattle Public Schools (the District) is planning a Comprehensive K-5 Core Mathematics Program Adoptionaligned to Common Core State Standards for Mathematics

( http://www.corestandards.org/Math) with tools, components and resources, which enable the teacher

to address all learners needs. This Adoption is to primarily serve our elementary school students in

grades Kindergarten through Grade 5. First year implementation is planned for the 2014/2015 school

year.

The District will require two years of in-service training by a qualified math trainer. These costs shall be

included within the Quotation Form of this RFP package.

The Technology components of this adoption must be on a platform that easily adapts to current

District Technology platforms but also provides no extra cost upgrades to future TechnologyStandards adopted by the District. Any costs associated with technology shall be included within the

Quotation Form of this RFP package.

The District is inviting finalists from the RFI process to participate in this RFP process where additional

information and samples will be requested. Sample materials will be extensively distributed throughout

the District for increased exposure to, and feedback from curriculum adoption stakeholders.

RFP respondents should thoroughly review all RPF documents, fill out/return all forms (complete all

yellow shaded areas) and provide any supplemental information/materials important to your offer within

indicated timelines/deadlines. Instructions will include information on how/where to transmit the RFP

response itself (this will be different from how the physical book/supplemental materials will be sent).

RFP Response/Submittal shall as a minimum include the following:

Response to the Vendor/Publisher Questionnaire (Attachment 3)

Request for Quotation Form-(Attachment 4)

Request for Quotation Form Part A (Attachment 5)

Request for Quotation Form Part B (Attachment 6)

Provide any supplemental information/materials important to your offer

In addition to responding to the RFP itself, the District will instruct finalists on how/where to send

additional sample books, supplemental and other tangible items. The RFP will also instruct finalists on how to transmit electronic access/password instructions so that Adoption Committee members and

stakeholder can easily access electronic/on-line resources.

Following School Board Policies and Superintendent Procedures, the Adoption Committee will use

established criteria to make curriculum recommendations that will be presented to the School Board for

further consideration and possible adoption.

Incomplete submissions of the questionnaire or quotation forms may disqualify vendors from

consideration for this project.

Using the attached RFP questionnaire/forms etc. as the vehicle to gather information, we hope to betterunderstand the features, benefits and estimated direct/indirect costs to procure, implement and support

this adoption into the future.

Estimated price range for the first year adoption and implementation is $1,200,000.00 - $1,700,000.00.

Evaluation criteria are listed in Attachment 8. The District has elected to coordinate with the National

Instructional Materials Access Center (NIMAC) to ensure student access to the educational curriculum.

See Attachment 9 for information and Attachment 10 for the associated contract requirement.

Hello Susan,

All of the MIF prices are FOB to the Seattle SD Warehouse and include both shipping (NWTD) and tax.

Yes, the total Math in Focus costs for each year including shipping and taxare as follows:

1 $4,426,950.60

2 $ 747,354

3 $ 558.954

4 $ 558.954

5 $ 558.954

6 $ 0

7 $ 0

Total 6,851,166.60

I have added this to the attached Math in Focus spread sheet.

The paid PD with Math in Focus is not optional. We do not own this program, but are partners with the program developers,

so we have no flexibility on price.

Thank you.

There is no total price on your submittal and I wanted to make sure I was clear when presenting the total cost to the

committee.

Does the pricing for years 2-5 ($558,954.00) include tax and any shipping charges? Year 1?

PD is $202,850.000 for the first year in addition to $3,175,815.00 for 30,000 students and $1,048,285.60 for

Teachers materials. I add this up to be $4,426,950.60 for the first year amount plus tax and shipping?

Year two would be $558,954.00 plus the PD $188,400.00 equaling $747,354.00 plus tax and shipping charge?
