Updating Contact Information With Your Child's School

All student profile information, including addresses and contact details, is maintained by your child's school.  As such, families must contact their child's school directly with requests for new registrations, school change, address change, sitter change, email address updates, etc. Each school day, updated student profile information is securely sent to the RCJTC in order to assign busing to eligible pupils.

In addition, RCJTC Parent Portal accounts are connected to the email addresses that their family has shared with the school so keeping these up-to-date will ensure that your access to the Parent Portal is successful.

Types of Procurement Opportunities

Under the Purchasing Policy, there are five (5) types of competitive procurement methods which may be used by the Consortium to obtain goods and/or services.

A Request for Information (RFI) is used to obtain supplier or product information and it is not typically used to award a contract. RFIs are used to obtain information on the feasibility and availability of specific goods and services to determine if there are enough suppliers to justify a Request for Proposal (RFP) or Request for Tender (RFT) and to assist in estimating general costs.

A Request for Supplier Qualifications (RFSQ) is used to gather information about supplier capabilities and qualification in order to pre-qualify supplier for current and/or future service need.

A Request for Proposal (RFP) is used for the formal procurement and delivery of complex goods / services where the goods and services may not be able to be fully defined or specified, or when alternate methods are being sought to perform a certain function or service, at the time of request.

A Request for Tender (RFT) is used for the formal procurement of goods/services where delivery requirements, performance specifications, and related terms and conditions are able to be fully defined or specified at the time of the request.

A Request for Quotation (RFQ) is used for the informal procurement of goods/services where the goods / services are described exactly.
