Comprehensive Elementary Science Services

The government authority in Annapolis, Maryland is seeking a vendor to provide comprehensive elementary science services for kindergarten through fifth grade (K-5) science classes and a STEM enrichment class. The agency needs a curriculum aligned to Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) three-dimensional learning, which incorporates science and engineering practices, crosscutting concepts, disciplinary core ideas, and corresponding performance expectations into each unit. The program must utilize a student-centered learning approach grounded in sensemaking and culturally responsive pedagogy to engage students with life, physical, earth-space, and engineering sciences. The requested scope of work covers a curriculum map and overview containing explicit implementation directions and a learning progression of instructional standards across grade levels. The agency requires research-based instructional strategies for academically diverse learners to be embedded directly into the core curriculum. Additionally, the vendor must provide professional learning resources and opportunities to help teachers implement the program and deepen their content and pedagogical knowledge. Eligible bidders must be onshore United States organizations, and all performance of the work will take place offsite. The agency is looking for proposals to determine the budget for this contract, which will span a period of six years. Bidders can submit their responses digitally via email or online. The agency will host a virtual pre-proposal conference on June 16, 2026, to discuss the opportunity. Bidders must submit all questions regarding the solicitation no later than June 24, 2026.
