An 11,000-student, $100M Pennsylvania cyber charter school sanctioned by the state has cast a net for PR proposals after a high-profile criminal probe and calls for reform.
The Midland, Pa.-based Pennsylvania Cyber Charter School has grown steadily over the past decade with satellite offices in eight cities. But it has taken some PR hits over the past year, including the ongoing federal criminal case against founder Nicholas Trombetta, who was indicted on fraud charges in an alleged scheme to siphon $1M from the school.
In April the K-12 school's teachers voted to unionize and Gov. Tom Corbett has called for reform of the state's charter school program.
The PR work encompasses public, community and government relations, research and communications, and media relations, among related outreach and tasks, according to an RFP released Oct. 13.
Proposals are due Oct. 31. View the RFP (PDF).
