<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black;mso-ligatures:none">Leading with our shared vision of racial, social, and economic justice, the heart of the Student Success Tool RFP is centered on creating equity in student success by ensuring that all students,
regardless of background, place, or status have equal access to resources, support, and opportunities. Through a comprehensive, transparent, and inclusive RFP process, the goal is to identify a tool that addresses diverse needs, fostering an inclusive experience
for students. Moreover, the RFP process itself is designed to demonstrate equity by providing fair and transparent opportunities for various stakeholders, promoting a dynamic system that actively contributes to student success. </span><span style="mso-ligatures:none"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black;mso-ligatures:none">The Taskforce aims to complete the RFP process and contract with a vendor for a unified opt-in student success tool. The primary purpose of the student success tool is to enhance and support
academic progress, academic planning, and student achievement. The selected tool will provide insights into disaggregated student performance, engagement, and behavior, allowing for interventions and support. Key objectives include improving retention, graduation
rates, and providing a positive e-learning environment. The selected student success tool will be accessible, utilize data analytics, provide for communication tools, and enable educators and institutions to proactively address challenges, identify opportunities,
and contribute to the well-being and success of students.</span><span style="mso-ligatures:none"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

selection/awarding of the RFP to WACTC. WACTC may then confirm the decision (if unconfirmed, the decision goes back to the taskforce). </span><span style="mso-ligatures:none"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
