Description
The Connecticut State Department of Education (CSDE) publishes requests for proposals by year, with listings covering 2021–2026. Its 2026 directory includes competitive grants, contractor procurements, and requests for information (RFIs). Opportunities address high-dosage tutoring, structured literacy, career and technical education, dual credit, school choice, attendance, out-of-school learning, and school improvement.
The programs pursue distinct goals: accelerating learning, strengthening family-school partnerships, expanding educational access, and supporting academic and social-emotional development. Sheff Region opportunities support integrated school settings, enrichment, athletics, and school programming under the Comprehensive School Choice Plan. Provider solicitations seek professional learning or tutoring services, while a separate procurement seeks contractors to strengthen and conduct educator preparation program audits.
