The organization seeks a vendor to deliver a comprehensive technology solution focused on student safety, classroom management, and internet content filtering. The project includes classroom management tools to assist teachers in effectively overseeing digital learning environments, as well as monitoring student wellness to proactively address mental health and safety concerns. The solution must offer 24x7x365 alerting capabilities for school personnel or local authorities should a threat require immediate action.

Key functionalities include real-time content filtering across all devices, both on-campus and remote, and guest network filtering policies for non-district devices to ensure safe browsing. The system should leverage AI-driven and human analysis of student activity, such as search queries, documents, and emails, to detect signs of self-harm, bullying, or other mental health issues. Integration with Google Suite, Google or Classlink Single Sign-On, and classroom-based content filtering controls for teachers are required. Additional features include the ability to lock screens, push URLs, and monitor student engagement in real time.
